Answer:

0.9007 is the probability that a student scored below 86 on this​ exam.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 77

Standard Deviation, σ = 7

We are given that the distribution of examination grades is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) P(student scored below 86)

P(x < 86)

P( x < 86) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{86 - 77}{7}) = P(z < 1.2857)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x < 1.2857) = 0.9007 = 90.07\%

0.9007 is the probability that a student scored below 86 on this​ exam.

masha68 [24]
First we should get the slope.

m=y2 -y1/x2-x1

=2-1/2-0
=1/2

y=m(x-x1) +y1
=1/2(x-0) +1
=1/2x+1

2. The radius of a circle is 7cms. The angle subtended by an arc of the circle at centre is 45º. Find the area of sector.​
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

19.2cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Radius of the circle  = 7cm

Angle subtended by the arc  = 45°

Unknown:

Area of the sector = ?

Solution:

To find the area of the sector, use the expression below;

     Area of sector = \frac{Angle of the arc}{360} x \pi r^{2}

where r is the radius ;

 Insert the parameters and solve;

       Area of sector = \frac{45}{360} x \pi x 7²

       Area of sector = 19.2cm²
