Answer:

z score for officer1 is 1, he will be promoted.

z score for officer2 is 0.33, she will not be promoted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Officer 1 get 74 points. O1=74

Officer 2 get 68 points. O2=68

Mean of the exam is 65 and standart deviation is 9 . M=65 and s=9

1) z-score for O1 can be found using the formula:

\frac{74-65}{9} =1

2) z-score of O2 is

\frac{68-65}{9} =0.33

Promotion is gained if an officer (O), scores higher than 80% of the officers taking the exam. This means they need to be at least in the top 20% of the exam. Therefore we look for the corresponding z score for the P(z)=0.2 which is 0.8416. Since z-score of O1 is bigger that 0.8416, he promotes. Officer2 who got 68 from the exam cannot promote since corresponding z-score is less than 0.8416

Arada [10]

Answer: $14,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Room & Board = $11,500

Work - study = $8000

Grant & scholarship = $9500

Tuition fee = $9500

If she pays balance with a student loan, how much will she need to borrow:

Elisha's bill:

Tuition fee and room and board

($9500 + $11500) = $21,000

Elisha's earning:

Work - study and scholarship & grant

($8000 + $9500) = $17500

Therefore,

Amount to borrow per year :

$21,000 - $17,500 = $3500

For four years :

4 × $3,500 = $14,000
