Algebra 2 Standard Deviation

Mathematics

Answer:

don't have answer but have how to do them

Step-by-step explanation:

What are z-scores?

A z-score measures exactly how many standard deviations above or below the mean a data point is.

Here's the formula for calculating a z-score:

z=\dfrac{\text{data point}-\text{mean}}{\text{standard deviation}}z=  

standard deviation

data point−mean

​  

z, equals, start fraction, start text, d, a, t, a, space, p, o, i, n, t, end text, minus, start text, m, e, a, n, end text, divided by, start text, s, t, a, n, d, a, r, d, space, d, e, v, i, a, t, i, o, n, end text, end fraction

Here's the same formula written with symbols:

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}z=  

σ

x−μ

​  

z, equals, start fraction, x, minus, mu, divided by, sigma, end fraction

Here are some important facts about z-scores:

A positive z-score says the data point is above average.

A negative z-score says the data point is below average.

A z-score close to 000 says the data point is close to average.

A data point can be considered unusual if its z-score is above 333 or below -3−3minus, 3. [Really?]

Example 1

The grades on a history midterm at Almond have a mean of \mu = 85μ=85mu, equals, 85 and a standard deviation of \sigma = 2σ=2sigma, equals, 2.

Michael scored 868686 on the exam.

Find the z-score for Michael's exam grade.

\begin{aligned}z&=\dfrac{\text{his grade}-\text{mean grade}}{\text{standard deviation}}\\ \\ z&=\dfrac{86-85}{2}\\ \\ z&=\dfrac{1}{2}=0.5\end{aligned}

Michael's z-score is 0.50.50, point, 5. His grade was half of a standard deviation above the mean.

Example 2

The grades on a geometry midterm at Almond have a mean of \mu = 82μ=82mu, equals, 82 and a standard deviation of \sigma = 4σ=4sigma, equals, 4.

Michael scored 747474 on the exam.

Find the z-score for Michael's exam grade.

\begin{aligned}z&=\dfrac{\text{his grade}-\text{mean grade}}{\text{standard deviation}}\\ \\ z&=\dfrac{74-82}{4}\\ \\ z&=\dfrac{-8}{4}=-2\end{aligned}

Michael's z-score is -2−2minus, 2. His grade was two standard deviations below the mean.

What is the inverse of f(x)=x^4+7 for x&gt;0 where function g is the inverse of function f?<br> -
Ann [662]

Answer:

g(x) = \sqrt[4]{x-7},~ x\geq 7

Step by step explanation:

y= f(x) = x^4+7\\\\\text{Replace x with y and solve for y:}\\\\~~~~~~~x = y^4 +7\\\\\implies y^4 = x-7\\\\\implies y = \pm\sqrt[4]{x-7}\\\\ \implies f^{-1}(x) = \pm\sqrt[4]{x-7}

Point 6 is on line segment FH. Given FG=8 and GH=11, determine length FH
Pie

Answer:

GH = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that

FH = FG + GH ← substitute values

4x + 8 = x + 5x

4x + 8 = 6x ( subtract 4x from both sides )

8 = 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )

4 = x

Hence GH = 5x = 5 × 4 = 20GH = 20
