675 people will have score between 85 and 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean = 100

SD = 15

If we have to find percentage of score between two values we have to find the z-score for both values and then area under the curve for both values

z-score is given by:

for a value x:

z-score = \frac{x-mean}{SD}

So,

For 85:

z-score = z_1 = \frac{85-mean}{SD}\\ = \frac{85-100}{15}\\=\frac{-15}{15}\\=-1

z-score = z_2 = \frac{120-mean}{SD}\\ = \frac{120-100}{15}\\=\frac{20}{15}\\=1.3333

Now we have to find the area under the curve for both values of z-score. z-score tables are used for this purpose.

So,

For z1 : 0.1587

For z2: 0.9082

The area between z11 and z2:

z_2-z_1 = 0.9082-0.1587=0.7495

So the probability of score between 85 and 120 is 0.7495

As the sample is of 900 people, the people with scores between 85 and 120 will be:

900*0.7495 = 674.55 people

Rounding off to nearest whole number

675 people will have score between 85 and 120

What is the value of log(x exponent 2 y exponent 3 divided by z) when given the following:
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

B. 13

Explanation:

\sf\:Given\:expression: log(\dfrac{x^2 y^3}{z} )

Logarithm rules:

\sf (i)  \ \sf log(ab) = log(a) + log(b)\\ \\ (ii) \  log(a/b) = log(a) - log(b)\\\\ (iii) \ log(a^n) = n log(a)

Breakdown of the expression:

\rightarrow \sf log\left(\dfrac{x^2y^3}{z}\right)

\rightarrow \sf log\left(x^2\right) + log\left(y^3\right) - log(z)

\rightarrow \sf 2\log\left(x\right)+3\log \left(y\right)-\log \left(z\right)

insert given values

\rightarrow \sf 2(3)+3(2)-(-1)

\rightarrow \sf 13
