The SAT mathematics scores in the state of Florida for this year are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a

standard deviation of 100.
Using the empirical rule, what is the probability that a randomly selected score lies between 500 and 700? Express your answer as a decimal.

<u></u><u>The correct answer is 47.5%, or 0.475.</u>

Explanation:
The empirical rule states that in any normal distribution:

68% of data will fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean;
95% of data will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean; and
99.7% of data will fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

The mean is 500 and the standard deviation is 100.  This means that 700 is 2 standard deviations away from the mean:

(700-500)/100=200/100=2.

We know that 95% of data will fall within 2 standard deviations from the mean.  However, included in the 95% is data less than the mean and greater than the mean.  Since we are only concerned with the scores from 500 to 700, we only want the half that is greater than the mean:

95/2 = 47.5%, or 0.475.

Parcc chapter 7 pythagorean theorem
Bumek [7]
So, we know that a^2 + b^2 = c^2.  Right?  That is called the Pythagorean Theorem.

In this case.  We can say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c.
NOTE: It doesn't really matter whether 39 is a or b.  a & b are just the two legs of the right triangle.

So, if we say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c.  We can plug it into the Pythagorean Theorem.

39^2 + 40^2 = x^2

I'll let you take it from there.

Two more than the quotient of a number and 6<br> is equal to 8
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

"Two more" = + 2

"quotient of a number and 6" = n/6

"equal to 8" = = 8

Set the equation:

n/6 + 2 = 8

Isolate the variable n. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 2 from both sides.

n/6 + 2 (-2) = 8 (-2)

n/6 = 8 - 2

n/6 = 6

Isolate the variable n. Multiply 6 to both sides.

(n/6)(6) = (6)(6)

n = 6 * 6

n = 36

36 is your answer.
