Algebra 2 Standard Deviation

Mathematics

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.

If f(x)=-x+8 and g(x)=x^4,what is (g•f)(2)?
wariber [46]
Answer:

It can be written as <span>f<span>(−8)</span></span> or <span>f<span>(3<span>(−2)</span>−2)</span></span>

Explanation:

You would substitute <span>−2</span> for the x in <span>3x−2</span> and then insert <span>3<span>(−2)</span>−2</span> for the g. You would end up with <span>f<span>(3<span>(−2)</span>−2)</span></span>, which can also be simplified to <span>f<span>(−8<span>)</span></span></span>

Directions: Solve these equations by using addition. You will need to use your fraction and decimal skills to solve these
Marina CMI [18]
One simple way to approach this is to subtract the number that DOESN’T have the variable with the solution by the sum.
Lets use problem 1 as the example:
1.) N+8=13
In this case, we subtract 13 by 8 and get 5, therefore N= 5.

2.) B+17=62
62-17= 45
B= 45

3.) X+5/6= 7/16
7/16-5/6= -19/48
X= -19/48

4.) y+1/7=5/8
5/8-1/7= 27/56
Y= 27/56

5.) 14+y=69
69-14=55
Y=55

6.) c+3.6=4.9
4.9-3.6=1.3
C= 1.3

Now for the word problems:
Lets use 7 as the example-
7.) a number increased by 19 is equal to 221.
Since we don’t know the number being increased by 19, that will be our variable. It will be re-written as so:

N + 19 = 221

Where N is the unknown number.

Using the same method of subtracting by the sum and the number that’s not the variable, we’ll get the solution to N
221-19= 202
N= 202

8.) N + 1 2/3 = 8
8 - 1 2/3 = 19/3= 6 1/3
N= 6 1/3

I really hope this helps
