Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel and opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal. Hence, we can say:

x + 30 = 2x - 10

and

2y-10 = y +10

Solving first one, we get:

x + 30 = 2x - 10

30+10 = x

x = 40

Also

2y - 10 = y + 10

y = 10 + 10

y = 20

Now, z = x - y, so

z = 40 - 20 = 20

Answer C is right.

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

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Tera had the higher z-score, so she should be offered the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z- score:

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

In this problem:

Whoever has the higher z-score should get the job.

Brittany:

Scored 88.3, mean 63.1, standard deviation 14. So

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

$Z = \frac{88.3 - 63.1}{14}$
