Answer:

88.51 is the minimum score needed to receive a grade of A.          

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 73

Standard Deviation, σ = 11

We are given that the distribution of exam grades is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.0793.

P( X \geq x) = P( z \geq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73}{11})=0.0793  

= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73}{11})=0.0793  

=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73}{11})=0.9207  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(z \leq 1.410) = 0.9207

\displaystyle\frac{x - 73}{11} = 1.410\\x =88.51  

Hence, 88.51 is the minimum score needed to receive a grade of A.

Answer:

If we look at ΔBDH, we notice that m∠BHG has to be 108 - 36 - 39 = 105°. Because x and ∠BHG are a linear pair we know that x = 180 - ∠BHG = 180 - 105 = 75°.
