Math scores on the SAT exam are normally distributed with a mean of 514 and a standard deviation of 118. If a recent test-taker

is selected at random, what is the probability the student scored 691 or greater on the exam ?

Answer:

The probability is 0.06681

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this, we need to calculate the standard score or z-score

Mathematically, the standard score can be calculated using the formula;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

from the question, the mean is 514 and the standard deviation is 118

The z-score is thus = (691-514)/118 = 177/118 = 1.5

The probability we are trying to calculate is thus;

P(x ≥ 691) or P(z ≥ 1.5)

Using standard score table or calculator,

Recall, P( x < 691) = 1 - P( x ≥ 691)

Hence, P( x ≥ 691) = 1 - P( x < 691)

P( x ≥ 691) = 1 - 0.93319

= 0.06681

There exists a linear function f(x) such that f(6) = 8, f(2)=20, and f(a) = 16. What is the value of 2a?
atroni [7]

Answer:

a = 10/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We write the linear function as follows:

f(x) = mx + b   where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

f(6) = 6m + b = 8

f(2) = 2m + b = 20    Subtracting these 2 equations:

4m = -12

m = -3.

and  -3 * 2 + b = 20 so:

b =   20 + 6 = 26.

So we have the linear function:

f(x) = -3 x + 26

f(a) = 16 = -3 a + 26

-3 a = 16-26

a = -10 * -3 =  10/3.
