Answer: 257

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

a3 = 59

a7 = 103

The nth term of an Arithmetic Progression (A. P) is given by:

an = a1 + (n-1)d

Where a1 = first term of the sequence ;

d = common difference

Therefore a3 = 59 can be represented thus:

a3 = a1 + (3-1)d = 59

a3 = a1 + 2d = 59 - - - - (1)

a7 = 103

a7 = a1 + (7-1)d = 103

a7 = a1 + 6d = 103 - - - - - (2)

Subtracting (2) from (1)

(2d - 6d) = (59 - 103)

-4d = - 44

d = 11

Substitute d= 11 into (1)

a1 + 2d =59

a1 + 2(11) = 59

a1 + 22 = 59

a1 = 59 - 22

a1 = 37

The 21st term:

a21 = a1 + (21 - 1)d

a21 = 37 + 20(11)

37 + 220 = 257

The average starting salary of this year's vocational school graduates is $35,000 with a standard deviation of $5,000. Furthermo
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Minimum: $25,200

Maximum: $44,800

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use 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 question:

\mu = 35000, \sigma = 5000

What are the minimum and the maximum starting salaries of the middle 95% of the graduates

Minimum: 50 - (95/2) = 2.5th percentile.

Maximum: 50 + (95/2) = 97.5th percentile

2.5th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.025. So X when Z = -1.96.

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

-1.96 = \frac{X - 35000}{5000}

X - 35000 = -1.96*5000

X = 25200

The minimum is $25,200

97.5th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.975. So X when Z = 1.96.

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

1.96 = \frac{X - 35000}{5000}

X - 35000 = 1.96*5000

X = 44800

The maximum is $44,800
