4 0

Answer:

- 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Average is calculated as

average = \frac{total}{count}

Thus for the given 10 numbers we have

\frac{total}{10} = - 5 ( multiply both sides by 10 )

total = - 50

let the number added be x, then

\frac{total+x}{11} = - 6 ( multiply both sides by 11 )

total + x = - 66, that is

- 50 + x = - 66 ( add 50 to both sides )

x = - 16

The new number is - 16

A recently admitted class of graduate students at a large state university has a mean GRE verbal score of 650 with a standard de
hjlf

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score is a score used to determine the number of standard deviations by which the raw score is above or below the mean, it is given by the equation:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\\mu=mean, \sigma=standard\ deviation,x=raw\ score\\\\for\ a\ sample\ n:\\\\z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }

Given that μ = 650, σ = 50. To find the probability that 5 students who have a mean of 490, we use:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} } =\frac{490-650}{50/\sqrt{5} } =-7.16

From the normal distribution table, P(x < 490) = P(Z < -7.16) = 0.0001 = 0.01%

Since only a small percentage of people score about 490, hence the local newspaper editor should write a scathing editorial about favoritism
