Answer:

81.06% of seniors score at least 820

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 1011, \sigma = 216

What percent of seniors score at least 820

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 820. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{820 - 1011}{216}

Z = -0.88

Z = -0.88 has a pvalue of 0.1894

1 - 0.1894 = 0.8106

81.06% of seniors score at least 820

A park is 4 times as it is wide. If the distance around the park is 12.5 kilometers what is the area of the park
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

6.25 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the correct question: A park is 4 times as long as it is wide. If the distance around the park is 12.5 kilometers, what is the area of the park?

Given: Perimeter (Distance) of the park= 12.5 km

Considering park is in rectangular shape.  

Let the width of park be x

∴ as given length will be 4x.

Formula for perimeter of rectangle =2\times (length + width)

Perimeter is given 12.5 km

⇒ 12.5= 2\times (4x+x)

⇒ 12.5= 10x

∴ x= 1.25 km, which means width is 1.25 km and length is 5 km.

Now, finding the area of park

Formula; Area of rectangle= length\times width

∴ Area of rectangle= 5\times 1.25 = 6.25 km

∴Area of park will be 6.25 km.
