Answer:

Option 3 ⇒ 210.08 rpm

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between the angular velocity ω and the linear velocity v is v=ωr

Where r is the radius of the tire.

Given that a diameter of 24 inches. If he rides at 15 miles per hour.

∴ r = diameter/2 = 24/2 = 12 in.

And v = 15 miles/hour

Converting the speed to inches per minutes where mile = 63,360 inches and hour = 60 minuted

∴ v = 15 * 63,360/60 = 15,840 inches/minute

∴ ω = v/r = 15,840/12 = 1,320 rad/minute

Converting ω from rad per minutes to revolutions per minute

Where 1 revolution = 2π

∴ ω = 1,320 / (2π) = 210.08 rpm

Suppose the test scores for a college entrance exam are normally distributed with a mean of 450 and a s. d. of 100. a. What is t

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

a) 68.26% probability that a student scores between 350 and 550

b) A score of 638(or higher).

c) The 60th percentile of test scores is 475.3.

d) The middle 30% of the test scores is between 411.5 and 488.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

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, we have that:

$\mu = 450, \sigma = 100$

a. What is the probability that a student scores between 350 and 550?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 550 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 350. So

X = 550

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

$Z = \frac{550 - 450}{100}$

$Z = 1$

$Z = 1$ has a pvalue of 0.8413

X = 350

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

$Z = \frac{350 - 450}{100}$

$Z = -1$

$Z = -1$ has a pvalue of 0.1587

0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6826

68.26% probability that a student scores between 350 and 550

b. If the upper 3% scholarship, what score must a student receive to get a scholarship?

100 - 3 = 97th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.97. So it is X when Z = 1.88

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

$1.88 = \frac{X - 450}{100}$

$X - 450 = 1.88*100$

$X = 638$

A score of 638(or higher).

c. Find the 60th percentile of the test scores.

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.60. So it is X when Z = 0.253

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

$0.253 = \frac{X - 450}{100}$

$X - 450 = 0.253*100$

$X = 475.3$

The 60th percentile of test scores is 475.3.

d. Find the middle 30% of the test scores.

50 - (30/2) = 35th percentile

50 + (30/2) = 65th percentile.

35th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.35. So X when Z = -0.385.

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

$-0.385 = \frac{X - 450}{100}$

$X - 450 = -0.385*100$

$X = 411.5$

65th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.35. So X when Z = 0.385.

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

$0.385 = \frac{X - 450}{100}$

$X - 450 = 0.385*100$

$X = 488.5$

The middle 30% of the test scores is between 411.5 and 488.5.
