Standardized tests: In a particular year, the mean score on the ACT test was 19.3 and the standard deviation was 5.3. The mean score on the SAT mathematics test was 532 and the standard deviation was 128. The distributions of both scores were approximately bell-shaped. Round the answers to at least two decimal places. Part: 0/4 Part 1 of 4 (a) Find the z-score for an ACT score of 26. The Z-score for an ACT score of 26 is
Answer:
1.26
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
For ACT:
Mean score, m = 19.3
Standard deviation, s = 5.3
Zscore for ACT score of 26;
Using the Zscore formula :
(x - mean) / standard deviation
x = 26
Zscore :
(26 - 19.3) / 5.3
= 6.7 / 5.3
= 1.2641509
= 1.26
The answers are
1. 18
2. 1 1/15
Answer:
3/7 and 4/17
Step-by-step explanation:
a) given that Shen is playing a game and the probability of unlocking the treasure test is 3/10.
To find the odds in favour of his character unlocking the treasure chest.
Since probability = 3/10 we have favourable and total are in the ratio 3:10
i.e. favourable:Favourable+unfavourable= 3:3+7
Hene odds= favourable:unfavourable =3/7
Answer is 3/7
b) Given that odds against choosing a blue block are 13/4
This means there are 4 blue blocks and 13 other colour blocks.
Total blocks= 13+4 =17
No of blue blocks = 4
Probability of selecting blue block=4/17
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
g
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum value occurs at gradient 0 (the stationary point).
In f this has a value (y) of 6.
In the equation example we have to differentiate:
dg(x)/dx = -x + 4
Gradient is 0 so 4 - x = 0 so x = 4
Plug g(4)=our maximum=-(1/2)4^2 + 4(4) + 3 = -8 + 16 + 3 = 11
11 > 6 so g has greater maximum.
