5 p + 2(3 p - 5) = -29- 8 p Solve for p ( geometry)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vika [28.1K]2 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

5p + 6p -10 = -29 - 8p

11p - 10 = -29 - 8p

+10 +10 +8p

+8p = -19

19p=-19

p=-1

The composite scores of individual students on the ACT college entrance examination in 2009 followed a normal distribution with
Mumz [18]

Answer:

35.57% probability that a single student randomly chosen from all those taking the test scores 23 or higher.

0.41% probability that a simple random sample of 50 students chosen from all those taking the test has an average score of 23 or higher.

The lower the standard deviation, the higher the z-score, which means that the higher the pvalue of X = 23, which means there is a lower probability of scoring above 23. By the Central Limit Theorem, as the sample size increases, the standard deviation decreases, which means that Z increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 21.1, \sigma = 5.1

What is the probability that a single student randomly chosen from all those taking the test scores 23 or higher?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 23.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{23 - 21.1}{5.1}

Z = 0.37

Z = 0.37 has a pvalue of 0.6443

1 - 0.6443 = 0.3557

35.57% probability that a single student randomly chosen from all those taking the test scores 23 or higher.

What is the probability that a simple random sample of 50 students chosen from all those taking the test has an average score of 23 or higher?

Now we use the central limit theorem, so n = 50, s = \frac{5.1}{\sqrt{50}} = 0.72

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{23 - 21.1}{0.72}

Z = 2.64

Z = 2.64 has a pvalue of 0.9959

1 - 0.9959 = 0.0041

0.41% probability that a simple random sample of 50 students chosen from all those taking the test has an average score of 23 or higher.

Why is it more likely that a single student would score this high instead of the sample of students?

The lower the standard deviation, the higher the z-score, which means that the higher the pvalue of X = 23, which means there is a lower probability of scoring above 23. By the Central Limit Theorem, as the sample size increases, the standard deviation decreases, which means that Z increases.

At the end of the first day three of the cricketers scored these runs 28, 61 and 39
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

His friend took one from 61 and added it to 39. That made it easy to mentally add 40 and 60 to get 100. Then he mentally added 28 to 100 to get 128.

What is the equation that represents the line?
Kryger [21]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, - 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 3) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{-3+6}{2+2} = \frac{3}{4}, thus

y = \frac{3}{4} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either ot the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (2, - 3), then

- 3 = \frac{3}{2} + c ⇒ c = - 3 - \frac{3}{2} = - \frac{9}{2}

y = \frac{3}{4} x - \frac{9}{2} ← equation of line

My brother told me he will give me $.25 per day for 10 days OR he will give me $.01 then give me double the following day for 10
NARA [144]

Answer:

you will get more money if he gives you 1 cent per day then doubles it

Step-by-step explanation:

if your brother gives you 25 cents per day, at the end of 10 days you will have $2.50

if he gives you 1 cent per day then doubles it, this will be your daily earnings:

day 1- 0.01

day 2- 0.02

day 3-  0.04

day 4- 0.08

day 5- 0.16

day 6- 0.32

day 7- 0.64

day 8- 1.28

day 9- 2.56

day 10- 5.12

then when you add all of this up, you would recieve 10.23 cents at the end of day 10
