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.

Find the slope of the line going through the points (11,5) and (20,5)
Pani-rosa [81]
So remember the formula for working out the slope:

(y2 - y1) ÷ (x2 - x1)

We already know two points:

(11, 5) and (20, 5) (Remember points are like (x, y)


Therefore y2 = 5 and y1 = 5 and x2 = 20 and x1 = 11

Substitute these into the formula from the start:

(y2 - y1) ÷ (x2 - x1)
(5 - 5) ÷ (20 - 11)
0 ÷ 9

And we can determine the slope is equal to 0 as 0 ÷ 9 = 0

Help me please and thank you
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

12.5 un^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for area of a trapezoid is (a+b)/2 *h

a and b are the shorter and longer bases respectively. H is height, you have both.

Simply plug it into the equation and find your answer.

(2.5+7.5)/2 *2.5 = 5*2.5 which is equal to 12.5. Add units.
