<h3>Answer: 220</h3>

======================================

Explanation:

Imagine we have 3 slots to fill: slot A, slot B, slot C.

There are 12 choices for slot A

There are 11 choices for slot B (whatever was picked cant be reselected)

There are 10 choices for slot C

There are 12*11*10 = 1320 permutations. If order mattered, then we would be done with the problem.

However, order does not matter as there is no need to rank or sort the various colors. All we care about is the group rather than the individual colors.

For any single group of 3, there are 3*2*1 = 6 ways to arrange the objects. This means that we divide by 6 to go from a permutation to a combination

1320/6 = 220

So there are 220 combinations. This tells us there are 220 different groups of colors where the order does not matter in any single particular group.

Eg: group {A,B,C} is the same as group {B, C, A}

-------------------------

An alternative method is to use the combination formula.

We would plug in n = 12 and r = 3 to get,

nCr = (n!)/(r!*(n-r)!)

12C3 = (12!)/(3!*(12-3)!)

12C3 = (12!)/(3!*9!)

12C3 = (12*11*10*9!)/(3!*9!)

12C3 = (12*11*10)/(3!)

12C3 = (12*11*10)/6

12C3 = 1320/6

12C3 = 220

we get the same answer as before.

Reports on a student’s ACT, SAT, or MCAT usually give the percentile as well as the actual score. The percentile is just the cum
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The percentile is calculated with the following probability:

P(X

And using the z score we got:

P(X

So then we can conclude that 31 represent approximately the percentile 81 on the distribution given

He scored better than about 80.98 % of all MCAT takers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(25.3,6.5)  

Where \mu=25.3 and \sigma=6.5

And for this case we have a score of 31

The percentile is calculated with the following probability:

P(X

And using the z score we got:

P(X

So then we can conclude that 31 represent approximately the percentile 81 on the distribution given

He scored better than about 80.98 % of all MCAT takers.
