The scores on an exam are normally distributed, with a mean of 85 and a standard deviation of 8. What percent of the scores are

Answer:

16%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the z-score.

z = (x − μ) / σ

z = (93 − 85) / 8

z = 1

This means 93 is one standard deviation above the mean.

According to the empirical rule, 68% of a normal distribution is between -1 and +1 standard deviations.  So 32% is either less than -1 or greater than +1 standard deviations.  Normal curves are symmetrical, so 16% is greater than +1 standard deviations.

List the important features for the graph of a quadratic function.
Kay [80]

Answer:

  • Vertex
  • Minimum Point
  • Maximum Point
  • Roots
  • Axis of Symmetry

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom (or top) of the U is called the vertex, or the turning point. The vertex of a parabola opening upward is also called the minimum point. The vertex of a parabola opening downward is also called the maximum point.

The x-intercepts are called the roots, or the zeros. To find the x-intercepts, set ax^2 + bx + c = 0.

The parabola is symmetric (a mirror image) about a vertical line drawn through its vertex (turning point). This line is called the axis of symmetry.

Determine whether the pair of actions results in independent or dependent events. Serena picks one marble out of a bag. Then, af
harina [27]

Answer:

B) Independent; the 1st marble selection will not affect the 2nd marble selection.

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding the probability of events in mathematics, we have both independent and dependent events.

Independent events are events that occur when the results of selection of the first events does not affect the results or outcomes of the second events.

Dependent events are the opposite of Independent events. They are events that occur when the results or outcomes obtained from the second events is affected by the results or outcomes from the selection of the first events.

From the question, we can see that the first event is she picked one marble from the bag. The second event is she replaced the marble before picking another marble. By doing this, the total number of possible outcomes for the probabilities of both events remains the same and they are unaffected.

Therefore, we can say that the two events are Independent because the 1st marble selection will not affect the 2nd marble selection.

According to The Wedding Report, Inc., the mean cost for a wedding in the United States is $28732 (as of November 2008). Suppose
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given points:

Step-by-step explanation:

X = \text{cost of wedding}\sim \text{Normal}\ (\mu = 28732, \sigma= 1500)\\\\

For point a:

Probability\ = 0.00000359\\\\ \text{(Using Excel function:} =NORMDIST(22000,28732,1500,1)).

For point b:

Probability \ = 0.014678\\\\\text{(Using Excel function:} =1-NORMDIST(32000,28732,1500,1))\\\\

For point c:

Probability\ = 0.794614436 \\\\

\text{(Using Excel function:} \\=NORMDIST (30000,28732,1500,1)-NORMDIST(25000,28732,1500,1))\\\\

For point d:

Q_1 = 27720.26537 \\\\\text{(Using Excel function:} =NORMINV(0.25,28732,1500)) \\\\Q_3 = 29743.73463 \\\\\text{(Using Excel function:} =NORMINV(0.75,28732,1500)).

For point e:

IQR = Q_3 - Q_1 = 29743.73463 - 27720.26537 = 2023.469251.

For point f:

Top\  10\% = 30654.32735 \\\\\text{(Using Excel function:} =NORMINV(0.9,28732,1500)).

The right triangle shown has angles X, Y, and Z and side lengths a, b, and
laiz [17]
So attached is a picture of the triangle you are talking about and listed under are the choices:

A.) Cos Z=b/c 
B.) Sin X=c/b 
C.) Tan X=b/a 
<span>D.) Tan Z=a/b
</span>
The answer would then be B. SinX = c/b.

Just remember SOH CAH TOA:

Sinθ=  Opposite         Cosθ =    Adjacent             Tanθ=   Opposite
         Hypotenuse                   Hypotenuse                        Adjacent

Using the triangle in the scenario, you just need to identify which side is which. 

Given m∠Z
Adjacent = b
Opposite = a
Hypotenuse = c

SinZ=  a         CosZ = b             TanZ= a 
            c                      c                        b

Given m∠X:

Adjacent = b
Opposite = a
Hypotenuse = c

SinX= <u> b </u>        CosX =<span><u> a </u></span>            TanX=<span><u> b </u></span>
            c                      c                        a

So the answer is B. 

Attached is a picture of how I assigned the sides depending on the angle used.
