Answer:

47.72% of students scored between 563 and 637 on the exam .

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of the students scored between 563 and 637 on the exam

= The percentage of the students scored lower than 637 on the exam -

the percentage of the students scored lower than 563 on the exam.

Since 563 is the mean score of students on the Statistics course, 50% of students scored lower than 563. that is P(x<563)=0.5

P(x<637)=P(z<z*) where z* is the z-statistic of the score 637.

z score can be calculated using the formula

z*=\frac{X-M}{s} where

  • X =637
  • M is the mean score (563)
  • s is the standard deviation of the score distribution (37)

Then z*=\frac{637-563}{37} =2

P(z<2)=0.9772, which means that 97.72% of students scored lower than 637 on the exam.

As a Result, 97.72%-50%=47.72% of students scored between 563 and 637 on the exam

Nutka1998 [239]
Park p : 
18/82 = 0.219 = 21.9% green birds

park q :
39/88 = 0.443 = 44.3% green birds

park r :
38/64 = 0.593 = 59.3% green birds

park service :
22/50 = 0.44 = 44%

park with greatest percentage of green birds is park r <==

Solve for w.<br><br> 5w + 9z = 2z + 3w
DIA [1.3K]
When solving for a variable, you get the variable you're trying to solve for on one side and everything to the opposite of that variable.

We have the equation <span>5w + 9z = 2z + 3w.

Usually the variable we're solving for we want on the left. But it's fine to have it on the right side, too.

Let's subtract 9z from the left-hand side. That way, the 5w will be alone on the left-hand side.

And remember, anything we do on one side we do to the other side.

</span><span>5w + 9z - 9z = 2z + 3w - 9z
</span><span>5w = -7z + 3w

The 3w term on the right-hand side needs to be removed. So, subtract each side by 3w.

5w - 3w = -7z + 3w - 3w
2w = -7z

Now, we need to divide each side by 2 to see what the w variable is equal to.

2w / 2 = -7z / 2
w = -7z / 2 or w = -3.5z

So, w is equal to -3.5z.

Is 21,063 divisible by three? If it is, write a number as a product of three and another factor if not, explain
Zarrin [17]
Twenty-one thousand and sixty-three divided by three is 7021

First, take any number (for this example it will be 492) and add together each digit in the number (4+9+2 = 15). Then take that sum (15) and determine if it is divisible by 3. The original number is divisible by 3 (or 9) if and only if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3 (or 9).If a number is a multiplication of 3 consecutive numbers then that number is always divisible by 3. This is useful for when the number takes the form of (n * (n - 1)*(n + 1))Example: 492 (The original number). 4 + 9 + 2 = 15 (Add each individual digit together). 15 is divisible by 3 at which point we can stop. Alternatively we can continue using the same method if the number is still too large: 1 + 5 = 6 (Add each individual digit together). 6 ÷ 3 = 2 (Check to see if the number received is divisible by 3). 492 ÷ 3 = 164 (If the number obtained by using the rule is divisible by 3, then the whole number is divisible by 3)
