The mean is \mu=85 and standard deviation is \sigma=5. Then the variable X\sim N(85,5).

Use substitution Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{X-85}{5}, then the variable Z\sim N(0,1).

The probability Pr(X>80) can be calculated in the following way:

for X=80, Z=\dfrac{80-85}{5} =-1 and Pr(X>80)=Pr(Z>-1). From the diagram Pr(Z>-1)=0.34+0.34+0.135+0.025=0.84.

Conclusion: if 188 students take the exam, then 188·0.84=157.92 (157) would receive a score above 80

Ellen drove 357.9 miles. Her car gets about 21 miles per gallon. Which is the best estimate of how many gallons of gas Ellen use
olga55 [171]
The best thing to do is to divide the amount she has driven (357.9) by the miles (21)
As you're looking for an estimate, you have to round them.
357.9 rounds to 360
21 rounds to 20
Therefore, you've got to divide them
360/20= 18
Therefore, Ellen has driven approximately 18 miles
Hope this helps :)

What expression using gcf 14xy+8yz
salantis [7]

Answer:

2y(7x + 4z)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the common factors of both terms

The gcf of 14 and 8 is 2

The gcf of xy and yz is y

Thus the gcf of both terms is 2y, thus

14xy + 8yz

= 2y(7x + 4z)
