Last week Andi had exams in Chemistry and in Spanish. On the chemistry exam, the mean was µ = 30 with σ = 5, and Andi had a scor

e of X = 45. On the Spanish exam, the mean was µ = 60 with σ = 6 and Andi had a score of X = 65. For which class should Andi expect the better grade?

Answer:

Chemistry

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the above question, we use the z score formula

Andy took two Exams, Chemistry and Spanish. So we find the z score for both exams.

a) Chemistry Exam

On the chemistry exam, the mean was µ = 30 with σ = 5, and Andi had a score of X = 45

z-score is given as: z = (x-μ)/σ

where x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = (45 - 30)/5

z = 15/5

z = 3

b) On the Spanish exam, the mean was µ = 60 with σ = 6 and Andi had a score of X = 65.

z-score is given as: z = (x-μ)/σ

where x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = (65 - 60)/6

z = 5/6

z = 0.8333333333

Comparing the z score of both Exams,

Andy had a z score of 3 in the Chemistry exam and 0.8333333333 in the Spanish exam.

Therefore, Andy should be expecting a better grade in the Chemistry exam because his z score in the Chemistry exam was higher than that of the Spanish exam.

The sum of 5 consecutive odd numbers is 145. What is the third number in this sequence
vredina [299]

Answer: The 3rd number in the sequence is 29.

Step-by-step explanation: What we have is a sequence of “ODD” numbers and they are consecutive, which means they come one after another with regular intervals. We don’t have any of the numbers but we can start by saying ‘let x represent the first number in the sequence’

With this in mind, we can now assume all other four numbers in the sequence. Therefore if the 1st number is x, the 2nd number would be x + 2, and the the 3rd number would be x + 4, 4th number would be x + 6 while the 5th number would be x + 8.

The reason is that, every odd number is an addition of two to the previous odd number. For instance, if you start with 3, the next odd number would be 3+2 (5), and so on.

Therefore we can now write our consecutive odd numbers as follows;

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) + (x + 8)

Remember that all the numbers add up to 145. Therefore,

x + x + 2 + x +4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 145

5x + 20 = 145

Subtract 20 from both sides of the equation

5x = 125

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

x = 25.

The first odd number is 25, which means the 3rd odd number is 25 + 4.

Therefore the 3rd odd number is 29.
