Answer:

The z-score for this kernel is -2.3

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the z-score

- The rule the z-score is z = (x - μ)/σ , where

# x is the score

# μ is the mean

# σ is the standard deviation

* Lets solve the problem

- The popping-times of the kernels in a certain brand of microwave

  popcorn are  normally distributed

- The mean is 150 seconds

- The standard deviation is 10 seconds

- The first kernel pops is 127 seconds

- We want to find the z-score for this kernel

∵ z-score = (x - μ)/σ

∵ x = 127

∵ μ = 150

∵ σ = 10

∴ z-score = (127 - 150)/10 = -23/10 = -2.3

* The z-score for this kernel is -2.3

Y=6x+5 is the equation. what is its gradient
Irina18 [472]
Gradient is synonymous to slope.

y = 6x + 5 is an example of a slope-intercept form of a straight-line equationl.

The slope-intercept equation is like this:

y = mx + b

where : m = slope ; b = "y-intercept"

y = 6x + 5

6 is the slope
5 is the y-intercept.

Since slope and gradient are synonymous, 6 is the gradient of the above equation.
