Answer:

920 points.      

Step-by-step explanation:    

We have been given that the mean score for a standardized test is 800 and the standard deviation is 120. To qualify for a special summer camp for accelerated students, a student must score within the top 16% of all scores on the test.

First of all we will find probability of 0.16 using normal distribution table.

Using normal distribution our Z score will be 0.994458

Now we will use raw-score formula to find the score (x) that a student must make to qualify for summer camp.  

x=\text{Mean}+\text{ Standard deviation* Z score}

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

x=800+120\times 0.994458

x=800+119.33496

x=919.33496

Upon rounding to nearest whole number we will get,

x=920

Therefore, a student must make 920 points to qualify for summer camp.

Change in value = 3.70 - 3.20 =0.50 Change in value is 0.50

Original Value = 3.70

Use the formula (0.50/3.70) * 100 = 13.5 % Decrease

Bas_tet [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Well they made 19 clay, where 12 were vases. That means 7 were not vases. She randomly chooses 16 clay objects, which then also means 3 were left behind. so if the vases are  12/19, which is approximately 63%, then 63% of the objects are vases. Makes sense, right? Well now we need to multiply that by the initial 11 in the question. After all of this work..

Answer: 6.9474 or 6.94736.

24 is 120% of what?, i need help so please tell ne the steps!?​
taurus [48]

Answer: it’s 20

We have, 120% × x = 24

or,

120/100 × x = 24

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 120,

we have x = 24 × 100/120

x = 20

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 24×100÷120, which will give you the answer.
