Suppose that your younger sister is applying for entrance to college and has taken the SATs. She scored at the 85th percentile o

n the verbal section of the test and at the 96th percentile on the math section of the test. Because you have been studying statistics, she asks you for an interpretation of these values. What would you tell her?
I would tell her that out of all the people who took the verbal section, ___% scored higher than she did and ___ % scored at or below her score. For the math section, ___ % of those who took the exam scored at or below her score and ____ % scored higher than she did.

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Score at the 85th percentile on the verbal section of the test
  • Score at the 96th percentile on the math section of the test

<u>Based on this info filling in the gaps</u>

  • I would tell her that out of all the people who took the verbal section, _15__% scored higher than she did and _85__ % scored at or below her score. For the math section, _96_ % of those who took the exam scored at or below her score and _4_ % scored higher than she did.

Answer:

388.5yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

We have Triangle TUV

In the question, we are given already

Angle U = 32°

Angle T = 38°

Angle V = ???

Side t = 31yd

Side u = ?

Side v = ?

Area of the triangle= ?

Step 1

We find the third angle = Angle V

Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°

Third angle = Angle V = 180° - (32 + 38)°

= 180° - 70°

Angle V = 110°

Step 2

Find the sides u and v

We find these sides using the sine rule

Sine rule or Rule of Sines =

a/ sin A = b/ Sin B

Hence for triangle TUV

t/ sin T = u/ sin U = v/ sin V

We have the following values

Angle T = 38°

Angle U = 32°

Angle V = 110°

We are given side t = 31y

Finding side u

u/ sin U= t/ sin T

u/sin 32 = 31/sin 38

Cross Multiply

sin 32 × 31 = u × sin 38

u = sin 32 × 31/sin 38

u = 26.68268yd

u = 26.68yd

Finding side x

v / sin V= t/ sin T

v/ sin 110 = 31/sin 38

Cross Multiply

sin 110 × 31 = v × sin 38

v = sin 110 × 31/sin 38

v = 47.31573yd

v = 47.32yd

To find the area of triangle TUV

We use heron formula

= √s(s - t) (s - u) (s - v)

Where S = t + u + v/ 2

s = (31 + 26.68 + 47.32)/2

s = 52.5

Area of the triangle = √52.5× (52.5 - 31) × (52.5 - 26.68 ) × (52.5 - 47.32)

Area of the triangle = √150967.6032

Area of the triangle = 388.5454973359yd²

Approximately to the nearest tenth =388.5yd²

Which of the following shows 12⁄28 written in prime factored form to help in reducing the fraction to simplest form?
mixas84 [53]
The answer would be 3/7

Explanation:
This question is basically asking for you to simplify 12/28. To do this, we find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of 12 and 28, which is 4. Then, we do 12 / 4 and 28 / 4, which gives us 3 and 7. Therefore, the answer is 3/7.

Tell whether the ordered pair (- 3, 0) is a solution of the given system. - 2x + 2y &gt;= 4an y &gt;= 2x - 6
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The ordered pair is a solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug x = -3 and y = 0 into the 2 inequalities and see if they fit:

-2x + 2y >= 4

-2(-3) + 2(0) = 6   which is > 4 so this one fits.

y>= 2x - 6

0 >= 2*-3) - 6 = -12 which also fits.
