A criminologist developed a test to measure recidivism, where low scores indicated a lower probability of repeating the undesira

ble behavior. The test is normed so that it has a mean of 140 and a standard deviation of 40. Suppose an individual is in the 67th percentile in this exam.What is his or her corresponding recidivism score

Answer:

157.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ,

where x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean, and

σ is the population standard deviation.

From the question:

Mean = 140

Standard deviation = 40

Recidivism score = x score = ??

z = z score of 67th percentile = 0.44

Hence,

0.44 = x - 140/40

Cross Multiply

0.44 × 40 = x - 140

17.6 = x - 140

x = 140 + 17.6

x = 157.6

Therefore, his corresponding recidivism score is 157.6

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Number of 3 point goals = 85

Number of 2 point goals = 3(85) - 62 = 193

Number of free throws = 3(85)- 32 = 223

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

2 point goals

Number of 3 point goals = x

Number of 2 point goals = 3x - 62

Number of free throws = 3x - 62 - 30 = 3x - 32

3x + 2(3x - 62)+ 3x - 32= 864.

3x + 6x - 124 + 3x - 32 = 864

12x = 864+ 124 + 32

12x =1020

x = 1020 / 12

x = 85

Number of 3 point goals = 85

Number of 2 point goals = 3(85) - 62 = 193

Number of free throws = 3(85)- 32 = 223

Determine if Ginny factored correctly. If not, explain where she made an error. Ginny made a mistake in step 1 when she identifi
il63 [147K]

Quadratic equations are second-order equations. Ginney made a mistake when she identified b = 31. It should be b = –31.

<h3>What is a Quadratic Equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is an equation that can be written in the form of

ax²+bx+c.

Where a is the leading coefficient, and

c is the constant.

In order to find the mistake that Ginny made, we will first find the factors ourselves, therefore, we will factorize the trinomial,

6x^2 - 31x -30 = 0

As we can see that the value of constants are,

a = 6

b = -31

c = 30

6x^2 - 31x -30 = 0\\\\6x^2 - 36x+5x -30 = 0\\\\6x(x-6)+5(x-6)=0\\\\(6x+5)(x-6)=0

Therefore, the factors of the trinomial 6x^2 - 31x -30 = 0 are (6x+5) and (x-6).

If we compare our process with Ginny's process, we will find that she has taken the value of the constant b as 31 which is wrong.

Hence, Ginney made a mistake when she identified b = 31. It should be b = –31.
