Solution:

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

1. For Best Actor

X_{1}= 59 years

\sigma=7.3, \mu=42.0

Z, Score for best actor named, Z_{1}

Z_{1}=\frac{59-7.3}{42}\\\\Z_{1}= \frac{51.7}{42}\\\\Z_{1}=1.23095\\\\ Z_{1}=1.24

Z-Score for best actor = 1.24

2. Z , Score for best supporting actor , called Z_{2}

X_{2}=49 years

\sigma=15, \mu=49.0

 Z_{2}=\frac{49-15}{49}\\\\Z_{2}= \frac{34}{49}\\\\Z_{2}=0.6938\\\\ Z_{2}=0.70      

Z-Score for best supporting actor = 0.70

Z-Score is usually , the number of standard deviations from the mean a point in the data set is.

3. As, Z_{1}=1.24

So, we can say that,Option (B) The Best Actor was more than 1 standard deviation above is not unusual.

4.As, Z_{2}=0.70

So, we can say that,Option(A) The Best Supporting Actor was less than 1 standard deviation below, is not unusual.

boyakko [2]
If you would like to know how many cups of raisins does Jacob have, you can calculate this using the following steps:

6/11 ... 1/2
4 7/8 cups ... 5 cups

1/2 of 5 cups = 1/2 * 5 = 5/2 = 2 1/2 cups

The correct result would be C. 2 1/2.

Formula is =\frac{1}{2}  \times base \times height

Base of the triangle = 10 cm

Height of the traingle = 3 cm

Area of the triangle = \frac{1}{2}  \times 10 \times 3 = 15 {cm}^{2}
