Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of change is the slope

Function A:

Slope = change in y/Change in x

= (9-3)/(3-0) = 6/3 = 2

Function B:

Clearly the slope is 3

(y = mx + c, m is the slope)

Rate of change of B is more than A

The 7th grade has 195 students. There are 25 more girls than boys in the grade. How many boys are there in 7th grade

Anon25 [30]

110 girls and 85 boys.

Subtract 1 from 195. Then divide by 2. 194/2 = 97. Then add 13 97+13=110. There are 110 girls.

Choose the inequality that represents the following graph.

zmey [24]

Answer:

(b) x ≤ -4

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few things to note when reading an inequality on a number line.

The number line would contain the following:

i. <em>circles</em>: These can be closed or open. Closed circles are denoted by a shaded small circle showing that the point or number shown on the number line is included in the inequality. Open circles are denoted by an unshaded small circle showing that the point or number shown on the number line is not included in the range of inequality.

ii. <em>arrows</em>: An arrow can point to the right or left. When it points to the right, that means the values greater than the number specified on the number line are included in the range. When it points to the left, the values less than the number are included.

From the given number line,

The type of circle is a closed circle since it is shaded. This means that the number pointed at on the number line (-4 in this case) is included in the range.

Also, the arrow is pointing leftwards. This means that values less than the number pointed at (-4 in this case) are included in the range.

Therefore, the inequality should read,

x ≤ -4

This shows that all values of x less than or equal to -4 are included in the range.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a) 0.0885 = 8.85% probability that the mean annual return on common stocks over the next 40 years will exceed 13%.

b) 0.4129 = 41.29% probability that the mean return will be less than 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean 8.7% and standard deviation 20.2%.

This means that $\mu = 8.7, \sigma = 20.2$

40 years:

This means that $n = 40, s = \frac{20.2}{\sqrt{40}}$

(a) What is the probability (assuming that the past pattern of variation continues) that the mean annual return on common stocks over the next 40 years will exceed 13%?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 13. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$
