Answer:

D. 3 Points

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Members = 3

Point = 9 - n

1 \leq\ n \leq 8

Required

Determine the least possible score

The least point a member of a team can get is when n = 8.

i.e.

Point = 9 - n

Point = 9- 8

Point = 1

To get the least score, each of the 3 members must have 1 point each.

So:

Total = 3 * 1

Total = 3

The length of time taken on the SAT for a group of students is normally distributed with a mean of 2.5 hours and a standard devi
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the length of time taken on the SAT for a group of students is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - u)/s

Where

x = length of time

u = mean time

s = standard deviation

From the information given,

u = 2.5 hours

s = 0.25 hours

We want to find the probability that the sample mean is between two hours and three hours.. It is expressed as

P(2 lesser than or equal to x lesser than or equal to 3)

For x = 2,

z = (2 - 2.5)/0.25 = - 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.02275

For x = 3,

z = (3 - 2.5)/0.25 = 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.97725

P(2 lesser than or equal to x lesser than or equal to 3)

= 0.97725 - 0.02275 = 0.9545

What is the answer to 4t−t+2
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

3t+2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we focus on the part with the "t" variable. Then we subtract the values with variables which gets us 3t. Finally, we can't do anything with the +2, so our solution is 3t+2.

A rectangular floor is 18ft long and 12 ft wide. Lamar wants to carpet the floor with carpet tiles sold by square yard. Use the
WITCHER [35]

Solution

The dimension of the rectangular floor is 18ft long and 12 ft wide

Using the conversion table

It is given that 1yd =3 ft

This shows that

12 feet will be equivalent to

\frac{12}{3}=4yd

Also 18ft will be equialent to

\frac{18}{3}=6yd

Therefore the new dimension is 6 yard by 4 yard

The area will be

A=6\times4

Therefore the required area is

A=24yd^2
