Which number is in the correct format for scientific notation?

Mathematics
1 answer:
olchik [2.2K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter A

Step-by-step explanation:

Rules for using scientific notation:

1.- The number before the decimal point must be between 1 and 10.

2.- Determine the exponent

3.- It must be in decimal format, ( x 10)

A 3.8*10^12       This number is in correct scientific notation.

B 33.8* 10         This number is incorrect, because before the decimal point the number must be between 1 and 10.

C 3.8 *20^8      This number is incorrect because the power must be 10 not 20.

The demand for a daily newspaper at a newsstand at a busy intersection is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 150 an
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

171 newspapers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 150, \sigma = 25

How many newspapers should the newsstand operator order to ensure that he runs short on no more than 20% of days

The number of newspapers must be on the 100-20 = 80th percentile. So this value if X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

0.84 = \frac{X - 150}{25}

X - 150 = 0.84*25

X = 171

So 171 newspapers.

Which r-value represents the strongest correlation?<br> –0.83<br> –0.67<br> 0.48<br> 0.79
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

–0.83

Step-by-step explanation:

An r-value, or correlation coefficient, tells us the strength of the correlation in a linear regression.  This number ranges from -1 to 1; -1 is a perfect linear fit for a decreasing set of data, while 1 is a perfect linear fit for an increasing set of data.

The closer the r-value is to either -1 or 1, the stronger the correlation is.

The two negative numbers we have are -0.83 and -0.67.  The first one, -0.83, is 0.17 away from -1.  -0.67, on the other hand, is 0.33 away from -1.  The two positive numbers we have are 0.48 and 0.79.  The first one, 0.48, is 0.52 away from 1.  The second one, 0.79, is 0.21 away from 1.  The one that is closest to the perfect fit is -0.83, since it is only 0.17 away from a perfect fit.
