The higher the bowling score the better. The lower the golf score the better. Assume both are normally distributed. a. Suppose w

e have a sample of the Santa Ana Strikers' bowling scores. Q1 = 125 and Q3 = 156. Would it be usual or unusual to have a score of 200?b. Suppose the mean bowling score is 155 with a standard deviation of 16 points. What is the probability that in a sample of 40 bowling scores, the mean will be smaller than 150?c. Suppose the mean golf score is 77 with a standard deviation of 3 strokes We will give a trophy for the best 5% of scores. What score must you get to receive a trophy? d. Suppose the mean golf score is 77 with a standard deviation of 3 strokes. Would a golf score of 70 be ordinary, a mild outlier, or an extreme outlier?

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The first and third quartiles of bowling scores are as follows:

Q₁ = 125 and Q₃ = 156

Then the inter quartile range will be:

IQR = Q₁ - Q₃

      = 156 - 125

      = 31

Any value lying outside the range (Q₁ - 1.5×IQR, Q₃ + 1.5×IQR) are considered as unusual.

The range is:

(Q₁ - 1.5×IQR, Q₃ + 1.5×IQR) = (125 - 1.5×31, 156 + 1.5×31)

                                               = (78.5, 202.5)

The bowling score of 200 lies in this range.

Thus, the bowling score of 200 is usual.

(b)

Compute the probability that the mean bowling score will be smaller than 150 as follows:

P(\bar X

                  =P(Z

Thus, the probability that in a sample of 40 bowling scores, the mean will be smaller than 150 is 0.024.

(c)

It is provided that, the lower the golf score the better.  

So, the best 5% of scores would be the bottom 5%.

That is, P (X > x) = 0.05.

⇒ P (Z > z) = 0.05

⇒ P (Z < z) = 0.95

⇒ <em>z</em> = 1.645

Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\1.645=\frac{x-77}{3}\\\\x=77+(3\times 1.645)\\\\x=81.935\\\\x\approx 82

Thus, the score is 82.

(d)

A <em>z</em>-scores outside the range (-2, +2) are considered as mild outlier and the <em>z</em>-scores outside the range (-3, +3) are considered as extreme outlier.

Compute the <em>z</em>-score for the golf score of 70 as follows:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

  =\farc{70-77}{3}\\\\=\frac{-7}{3}\\\\=-2.33

As the <em>z</em>-score for the golf score of 70 is less than -2, it is considered as a mild outlier.

The graph of y = f ′(x), the derivative of f(x), is shown below. Given f(2) = 8, evaluate f(–2).
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:  Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

The graph of the derivative of f(x) , say, y = f'(x), is symmetry about the origin.

so, it is an odd function.

So, f(x) must be an even function.

f(x)=f(-x)\\\\f(2)=f(-2)=8

So, the value of f(-2) is equal to 8.

Hence, Third option is correct.

so that is cos

cos(x)=15/21
so tehrfor
cos⁻¹(15/21)=x
where cos⁻¹ means inverse not 1/cos

use your calculator to evaluate cos⁻¹(15/21) in degrees

it is about 44.4153 degres, rounded to 44 degrees

If the circumference of the circle is 37.68 units, what is the area? (Use 3.14 for pi .)
solniwko [45]

Answer: 113.04

Step-by-step explanation: The equation for the area of a circle is pi r squared so you have to find the radius first. To find the radius, find the diameter first. A way to do this which was easiest for me was dividing 37.68 by pi (3.14), which is 12. Divide the diameter by 2 to find the radius, 6.

Now use the equation from the beginning, pi r squared. So plug in pi as 3.14, then the radius as 6. It is important to always square the radius first, which would be 36. Now multiply 36 by 3.14, and there should be your answer.

What is the value of the expression 12(m−23n) when m=32 and n=12 ?
Verizon [17]

are those the options? something is wrong here and I'm not sure what. I'm sorry if this is wrong, I tried my best

Answer:

-2,928

Step-by-step explanation:

12 ( 32 - [ 23 • 12 ] )

order of operations PEMDAS ( parenthesis, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction )

23 • 12 = 276

12 ( 32 - 276 )

12 ( -244 )

-2,928
