First, we assume the distribution is normal, since it is not given in the question.

Next, get a Z-table, such as 
stat.ufl.edu/~athienit/Tables/Ztable.pdf
and look through the table for 97% shaded.
The corresponding Z-value should be 1.88 SD (standard deviations) for 96.99%.
Now since
Z=(X-mean)/SD
where 
mean=500, SD=55
Solve for X.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

Table needed to help

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean vs Median

The mean (informally, the “average“) is found by adding all of the numbers together and dividing by the number of items in the set: 10 + 10 + 20 + 40 + 70 / 5 = 30.

The median is found by ordering the set from lowest to highest and finding the exact middle. The median is just the middle number: 20.

Find the sum of the first 7 terms of the following sequence. Round to the nearest
gregori [183]

Answer:

76454

Step-by-step explanation:

Sequence : 14,56,224, ..14(4^(n-1)

where n=term number.

First term: 14*(4^(1-1)) = 14*(4^0) = 14

Second term: 14*(4^(2-1))=14*4 = 56

Third term: 14*(4^(3-1))=14*16 = 224

...

7th term: 14*(4^(7-1)) = 14*(4^6)

Sum of the first 7 terms

= 14*(4^0+4^1+4^2+4^3+4^4+4^5+4^6)

= 14(4^7-1)/(4-1)

= 14(4^7-1)/3

= 76454
