A certain standardized test's math scores have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 530 and a standard deviation of 119. Co
kumpel [21]

Answer:

a) 68.2%

b) 31.8%

c) 2.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 530

Standard Deviation, σ = 119

We are given that the distribution of math scores is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

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

a) P(test scores is between 411 and 649)

P(411 \leq x \leq 649)\\\\= P(\displaystyle\frac{411 - 530}{119} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{649-530}{119})\\\\= P(-1 \leq z \leq 1)\\\\= P(z \leq 1) - P(z < -1)\\= 0.841 - 0.159 = 0.682 = 68.2\%

b) P(scores is less than 411 or greater than 649)

P(x < 411 < x, x > 649)\\=1 = P(411 \leq x \leq 649)\\=1 - 0.682\\=0.318 = 31.8\%

c) P(score greater than 768)

P(x > 768)

P( x > 768) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{768 - 530}{119}) = P(z > 2)

= 1 - P(z \leq 2)

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

P(x > 768) = 1 -0.977 = 0.023 = 2.3\%

A student must leave for campus in 10 mins or he will be late for class. Unfortunately he is snowed in. He can shovel the drivew
Leno4ka [110]
Since if he gets the driveway done in 20 minutes he gets 1/20th of the driveway done in 1 minute (if x=20 then x/20=1 by dividing both sides by 20) and if his brother gets 1/12th of the driveway done in one minute, then if t represents the time it takes to shovel the driveway, t/20+t/12=1 driveway shoveled as 1/20+1/12=amount they can do in 1 minute, so t/20+t/12 is how much they can do in t minutes. Multiplying both sides by 20*12=240, we get 12t+20t=32t=240. Dividing both sides by 32, we get 240/32=7.5 minutes to shovel the driveway.

Two angles are supplementary the first angle measures 40 degrees what is the second angle
nydimaria [60]
The second angle would be 140⁰. When two angles are supplementary, they add up to 180⁰.
180⁰-40⁰=140⁰

I will give BRAINLIEST to the correct answer <br> Find the measure of angle 6.
True [87]

Answer:

m∠6 = 116°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>first find x:</u>

7x - 17 = 2x + 78

subtract 2x from both sides: 5x - 17 = 78

add 17 to both sides: 5x = 95

divide by 5: x = 19

<u>plug x into 7x - 17</u>

7(19) - 17 = 116

∠6 and 7x - 17 are vertical angles and therefore congruent, so m∠6 also = 116°
