One of the students in the class scored 100 on the midterm but got overconfident, slacked off, and scored only 15 on the final e

xam. No other student in the class "achieved" such a dramatic turnaround. If the instructor decides not to include this student’s scores when constructing a new regression model, will the slope of the new line increase or decrease?

Suppose that the mean score on a creativity test is 16 and the standard deviation is 4. You are told that the distribution is no
Savatey [412]

Answer:

P(12

And we can find this probability on this way:

P(-1

We expect around 68.27% between the two scores provided.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(16,4)  

Where \mu=16 and \sigma=4

We are interested on this probability

P(12

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(12

And we can find this probability on this way:

P(-1

We expect around 68.27% between the two scores provided.

Can't​ really find the answer. Any help?
prisoha [69]

a) you need to convert one of the prices so both of them are in the same units and you can compare them.

im going to convert the Japanese Yen into Euros as the numbers will be smaller but you can also do it the other way.

£1 = 188 japanese yen

?? = 39856 japanese yen

divide 39856 by 188 to get £212

this means 39856 Japanese Yen is equal to £212

then convert this into euros.

£1 = €1.41

£212 = ???

calculate 212 × 1.41 which gives you €298.92

this means 39856 Japanese Yen is equal to €298.92

the phone in Spain costs €352.50

this shows that the phone in Spain is more expensive than the one in Japan.

therefore, the mobile phone in Japan is cheaper.

b) from Part A, we know that the phone in Japan is 39856 Japanese Yen, which is equal to £212.

so now we need to convert €352.50 into Pounds (£) to compare the prices.

£1 = €1.41

?? = €352.50

divide 352.50 by 1.41 to get £250.

this means the phone in Spain costs £250 as €352.50 is equal to £250.

now we know the phone in Japan is £212 (in pounds) whereas the phone in Spain is £250 (in pounds).

we need to calculate the difference by doing £250 - £212 which equals £38

therefore, the phone in Japan is cheaper than the phone in Spain by £38

What is the slope of the line y = -5x +1 ?
laila [671]

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the slope intercept form:

y = mx + b

m = Slope value

b = y-intercept

So in this case,

y = (-5)x + b

m = -5

b = 1

Thus the answer is -5

Can someone please do this for me?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

64°

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>So supplement angles are equal to 180, so first our two angles added together will be 180:</em>

x + x = 180

<em>Now one of these angles is 6 greater than half:</em>

x + (x/2 + 6) = 180

<em>Then we will solve for x:</em>

x + (x/2 + 6) = 180

x + x/2 + 6 = 180

x + x/2 = 174

\frac{3}{2}x = 174

x = 116

<em>Plug it back in:</em>

x + (x/2 + 6) = 180

         /\

     x/2 + 6

   (116)/2 + 6

        64

<em>To check:</em>

116 + 64 = 180 ✓

Elena L [17]

Answer:

h=2 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

2 3/4+1/2=

you can convert 1/2 into 2/4 so they have like denominators

2 3/4+2/4= 2 5/4 which is also equal to 3 1/4
