The mean number of words per minute (WPM) read by sixth graders is 81 with a standard deviation of 17 WPM. If 130 sixth graders

are randomly selected, what is the probability that the sample mean would be greater than 77.21 WPM? Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answer:

The probability that the sample mean would be greater than 77.21 WPM = 0.9945

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean number of Words per Minute  = u  = 81

Standard Deviation = s = 17

sample size = n = 130

Target value = x = 77.21

we can find the probability by converting <u>x</u> to z-score.

The formula for z-score = \frac{x-u}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }

using given values, z-score =  \frac{77.21-81}{\frac{17}{\sqrt{130} } }

=> -2.54

using the z table, we can find the find the probability of -2.54, that is 0.9945.

Therefore, the probability that the sample mean would be greater than 77.21 WPM = 0.9945

In quadrilateral $ABCD$, we have $AB=3,$ $BC=6,$ $CD=4,$ and $DA=4$.
vampirchik [111]
The triangle inequality applies.

In order for ACD to be a triangle, the length of AC must lie between CD-DA=0 and CD+DA=8.

In order for ABD to be a triangle, the length of AC must lie between BC-AB=3 and BC+AB=9.

The values common to both these restrictions are numbers between 3 and 8. Assuming we don't want the diagonal to be coincident with any sides, its integer length will be one of ...

each time kim pour water from a jug into a glass, exactly 10% of the water remaining in the jug is used. What is the minimum num
Gnoma [55]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

At least 7 times.

Explanation:

Since 10% of the water in the jug is removed each time, this means that 100-10=90% of the water remains.

After two times, we would have 0.9(0.9) = 0.81 = 81% of the water; each time she pours, the number of times 0.9 is multiplied by itself changes.  This makes this an exponential inequality (it is not an equation, as we want "less than half of the water"):

0.5 < 0.9^x

To solve this, we will use logarithms:

\log_{0.9}(0.5)
