Answer:

The cutoff for a failing score was 40,

Approximately 2.3% of the students failed. ​

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Mean, \mu=60

Standard deviation, \sigma=10

Let x represents the cutoff for a failing score,

Thus, according to the question,

\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=-2

\frac{x-60}{10}=-2

x-60=-20

x=-20+60

x=40

Thus, the cutoff for a failing score is 40,

∵ P(<-2) = 0.02275 = 2.275 % ≈ 2.3 %

Hence, Approximately 2.3 % of the students failed. ​

What’s the answer to number 19??
Igoryamba

The answer equals 6.

Since 3 3/4 equals 15/4, when you divide you have to switch the numbers in the  divisor and then you turn the equation into multiplication.

So then it will be 15/4 x 4/3.

15 x 4 = 60

4 x 3 = 12 so the answer is 60/12. But you have to simplify so half of 60/12 is 30/6 and then half of 30/6 is 15/3 then you have to pick the gcf of 3 and 15 which is 3.

15 divided by 3 equals 5.

3 divided by 3 equals 1 so 5/1 equals 5

Hope this helps! ;)
