The overall pass rate for law school graduates taking the Maryland bar exam has been reported as 76%. Assume that a certain Mary

land law school has had 400 of its most recent graduates take the Maryland bar exam, but only 60% passed. When asked about these results, the dean of this university’s law school claims his graduates are just as good as others who have taken the Maryland bar exam, and the low pass rate for the recent graduates was just "one of those statistical fluctuations that happen all the time." If this university’s overall pass rate were really 76%, what would be the probability of a simple random sample of 400 having a pass rate of 60% or less

Answer:

The probability is P(X \le 0.60) = 0.000

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The overall pass rate is  R  =  76\% =  0.76

   The sample size is  n  =  400

   The percentage that passed is  k =  60\%  =  0.60

Generally the standard error is mathematically represented as

     \sigma _{\= x } =  \sqrt{\frac{R (1 -R)}{n} }    

  =>    \sigma _{\= x } =  \sqrt{\frac{0.76 (1 -0.76)}{400} }

  =>    \sigma _{\= x } = 0.0214  

Generally the probability of a simple random sample of 400 having a pass rate of 60% or less is mathematically represented as

      P(X \le 0.60) = P(\frac{X - R}{ \sigma_{\= x}}  \le \frac{0.60 - 0.76}{0.0214} )

=>   P(X \le 0.60) = P(Z \le -7.48 )

Generally from the z-table  

      P(Z \le -7.48 ) =  0.000

So

  P(X \le 0.60) = 0.000

The surface area of a triangular pyramid is 1,936 inches squared. If the dimensions are multiplied by 1/4, what will be the new
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

121 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

If the dimensions are multiplied by 1/4, we have that the surface area will by multiplied by (1/4)^2, as the dimensions are in inches and the surface area is in inches squared.

So, If the original surface area is 1936 inches squared, the new surface area will be:

New surface area = 1936 * (1/4)^2 = 1936 / 16 = 121 inches squared.

seropon [69]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let John's age be x. This gives us that in 11 years, john's age will be 5 less than 5 times his current age. Therefore, we could get: x+11=5x-5. This is your second equation. Solving for x, we get 4x=16 so x=4.
