A statistics instructor designed an exam so that the grades would be roughly normally distributed with a mean of and a standard

deviation of 1015. In the space provided, draw a sketch of this distribution and label the mean and, using the standard deviation, two additional points on the horizontal axis. (2 pts)

Answer:

a) Figure attached

b) P(X\geq 90)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\geq \frac{90-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z \geq\frac{90-75}{10})=P(z>1.5)

And we can find this probability with the normal standard table and with the complement rule:

P(z\geq 1.5)=1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

A statistics instructor designed an exam so that the grades would be roughly normally distributed with a mean of μ=75 and a standard deviation of σ= 10.

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Figure attached.

Part b

What proportion of students are expected to earn grades of ≥90?

We are interested on this probability

P(X\ geq 90)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X\geq 90)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\geq \frac{90-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z \geq\frac{90-75}{10})=P(z>1.5)

And we can find this probability with the normal standard table and with the complement rule:

P(z\geq 1.5)=1-P(z

Which zero pair could be added to the function fon) = x2 + 12x + 6 so that the function can be written in vertex form?
Oksanka [162]

ANSWER

36,-36

EXPLANATION

The given function is:

f(x) =  {x}^{2}  + 12x + 6

To write this function in vertex form;

We need to add and subtract the square of half the coefficient of x.

The coefficient of x is 12.

Half of it is 6.

The square of 6 is 36.

Therefore we add and subtract 36.

Hence the zero pair is:

36, -36.

The correct answer is D.

How will you graphically represent data in cyber security with math?
qaws [65]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

another math-based concept used in cybersecurity is hexadecimal math. Rather than having only two options, as in binary math, hexadecimal math is based on the idea that you can count up to any one of 16 different options. ... Cryptography is the science of codes and encryption and is based on mathematical theory

While performing a piece of music, Tommy strikes the cymbals every 7 beats and the triangle is every 12 beats. If he just struck
Semmy [17]

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

In interval questions we use LCM

LCM of 7, 12=84

Therefore, the number of beats will pass before he again strikes them at the same time is 84
