Three potential employees took an aptitude test. Each person took a different version of the test. The scores are reported below

. Emilio got a score of 76; this version has a mean of 70.6 and a standard deviation of 9. Alissa got a score of 298.8; this version has a mean of 282 and a standard deviation of 24. Tobias got a score of 8.04; this version has a mean of 7.2 and a standard deviation of 0.4.
Required:
If the company has only one position to fill and prefers to fill it with the applicant who performed best on the aptitude test, which of the applicants should be offered the job?

8 0

Answer:

Tobias did best on the aptitude test.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.

For Emilio

Emilio got a score of 76; this version has a mean of 70.6 and a standard deviation of 9.

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = 76 - 70.6/9

z = 0.6

For Alissa

Alissa got a score of 298.8; this version has a mean of 282 and a standard deviation of 24.

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = 298.8 - 282/24

z = 0.7

For Tobias

Tobias got a score of 8.04; this version has a mean of 7.2 and a standard deviation of 0.4.

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = 8.04 - 7.2/0.4

z = 2.1

Looking at the calculated z score above, we can see that Tobias did better on his aptitude test because he had a higher z score compared to Emilio and Alissa.

A bug splatters on the windshield of a moving car. Describe the 1. Forces 2. Impulses 3. Momentum changes 4. And accelerations o
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

acceleration=force/mass

Due to variation in the mass[ as same force as per magnitude acts on both of them] the acceleration developed in the bug will be more and the acceleration developed in the car is negligible.

impulse=change in momentum

The impulse of bug is more and that of car is small.

momentum changes=change in momentum

force=change in momentum/time of contact

the force exerted by car on the bug will be more than the converse

Total. momentum is conserved , so magnitude of change in momemtum or impulse is same. By Newtons third law, since the bug have smaller mass, its change in magnitude of velocity is larger.

Find the diameter of a cone that has a volume of 56.52 cubic inches and a height of 6 inches. Use 3.14 for pi. a. 3 inches. b. 6
sergejj [24]
Volume of cone = (1/3)pi*r²h

56.52 = (1/3)*3.14*r²*6

56.52/(2*3.14) = r²

9 = r²

r² = 9

r = √9

r = 3

Diameter = 2*r = 2*3 = 6 inches.    b.
