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.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

84 Percentage increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Detailed calculations & verification

Introduction. Percent, p%

'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':

p% = p 'out of one hundred',

p% is read p 'percent',

p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100.

40% = 40/100 = 40 ÷ 100 = 0.4.

100% = 100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1.

Increase the number by 40% of its value.

Percentage increase = 40% × 210

New value = 210 + Percentage increase

Calculate the New Value

New value =

210 + Percentage increase =

210 + (40% × 210) =

210 + 40% × 210 =

(1 + 40%) × 210 =

(100% + 40%) × 210 =

140% × 210 =

140 ÷ 100 × 210 =

140 × 210 ÷ 100 =

29,400 ÷ 100 =

294

Calculate absolute change (actual difference)

Absolute change (actual difference) =

New value - 210 =

294 - 210 =

84

At one point in a Girl Scout cookie sales drive, region C had sold 1500 boxes of cookies, and region D had sold 1200 boxes of co
juin [17]

Answer:

a)After 6 days region D will catch region C

b) Region C will sell 13500 cookies and region D will sell 13600 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Cookies sold by region C more than region D= 1500-1200=300

But region D can sells 50 cookies every day i-e

50 cookies = 1 day

==> 1 cookie= 1÷50

==> 300cookies = 300÷50=6 days

So, after 6 days region D will catch up region C's

b) If sale stopped after 8 days;

Then sale of region C for 8 days = 1500×8=12000 cookies

so , total cookies sold = 1500 +12000=13500

For region D;

Before catching up region C cookies sold by region D = 1200

Till catching up region C - region D had also sold 1500 cookies,

and for 50 extra cookies than region C

next 8 days region D will sale =(1500+50)×8=1550×8=12400 cookies

So, total number of cookies sold by region D = 1200+12400=13600
