One year Ron had the lowest ERA (earned-run average, mean number of runs yielded per nine innings pitched)

Mathematics

Arada [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Ron's ERA has a z-score of -2.03.

Karla's ERA has a z-score of -1.86.

Due to the lower z-score, Ron had a better yean than Karla relative to their peers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

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.

In this question:

Since the lower the ERA, the better the pitcher, whoever's ERA has the lower z-score had the better year relative to their peers.

Ron

ERA of 3.06, so X = 3.06

For the males, the mean ERA was 5.086 and the standard deviation was 0.998. This means that \mu = 5.086, \sigma = 0.998

So

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

Z = \frac{3.06 - 5.086}{0.998}

Z = -2.03

Ron's ERA has a z-score of -2.03.

Karla

ERA of 3.28, so X = 3.28

For  the females, the mean ERA was 4.316 and the standard deviation was 0.558. This means that \mu = 4.316, \sigma = 0.558

So

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

Z = \frac{3.28 - 4.316}{0.558}

Z = -1.86

Karla's ERA has a z-score of -1.86.

Which player had the better year relative to their peers, Ron or Karla?

Due to the lower z-score, Ron had a better yean than Karla relative to their peers.

Find AC and FB.<br> Points B, D, and F are midpoints of the sides of ACE. EC=40 and DF=18.
ANTONII [103]
The second option. A is 36 and B is 20. FD is half of AC, so 18*2 is 36. FB is half of EC, so it’s 20.

Ray needs help creating the second part of the coaster. Create a unique parabola in the pattern f(x) = (x − a)(x − b). Describe
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

1) The parabola equation faces up

2) The y-intercept = a·b

3) The zeros are x = a and x = b

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The given information are;

f(x) = (x - a)·(x - b) which gives;

f(x) = x² - (b+a)·x + a·b

For an equation of the form a·x² - b·x + c, if a is positive, then the parabola faces up, therefore, the parabola equation, x² - (b+a)·x + ab where a is equivalent to +1 faces up

2) The y-intercept is given at x = 0, which gives;

f(0) = 0² - (b+a)·0 + a·b

The y-intercept = a·b

3) From f(x) = (x - a)·(x - b), when f(x) = 0, we have either;

(x - a) = 0 or (x - b) = 0

Therefore;

The zeros are x = a and x = b
