Algebra 2 Standard Deviation

Mathematics
1 answer:
Illusion [34]3 years ago

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.

The correct answer is C) (5×10⁴)(1×10²)

Explanation:
The number of trees can be calculated by the formula:
trees = density × area

Consider that the problem says that the researcher makes an approximation, and the answers have numbers written in scientific notation.

The density is 86 trees/km², 
which can be rounded to 100 trees/km² 
and written as <span>1×10².
Therefore, density = </span>1×10² trees/km²

The area of a square can be calculated by the formula:
A = s²
   = 220² 
   = 48400 km²
which can be roundend to 50000
and written as <span>5×10⁴
Therefore, area = </span>5×10⁴ km²

Now, we can substitute in the original formula:
trees = (1×10²)(5×10⁴)

Area of the parallelogram
klasskru [66]

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe I already explained how to solve this type of equation in the last question I helped you with. So I am just going to explain how to do it the faster way.

Use the equation:

  • A = b x h

To find the base, add 5.5 and 2.5 together. The sum is 8. Then multiply this times the height, which is 5.5. So 8 x 5.5 = 44

Randy wants to run half a marathon. Half a marathon is 13.1 miles. if she wants to run the race in 2 hours what rate(in minutes
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

9.16 minutes per mile

At 10 miles, she is short of her intended rate

Step-by-step explanation:

2 hours means 60 * 2 = 120 minutes

Randy aims to run 13.1 miles in 120 minutes. So to get the rate [min/mi], we must divide total minutes by total miles:

120/13.1 = 9.16 minutes per mile

Moreover, she realized at 10 miles, she has taken 90 minutes. So her rate at that point [min/mi] is:

90/10 = 9 min/mi

Well, Randy is short of her intended rate
