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

Mathematics
1 answer:
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.

Dakota wants to build 8 birdhouses, he needs to point 6 square feet of plywood, for each birdhouse is the plywood cause $0.56 pe
Westkost [7]

Answer:

$26.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a ply wood = $0.56 per square foot

If Dakota wants to build 8 birdhouses and he needs to paint 6 square feet of plywood for each birdhouse, then the total area fir the 8 bird house will be expressed as:

8 * 6

= 48 sq. feet

Hence the area of 8 bird houses is 46sq. feet

Next is to calculate the amount it will cost to make the 8 bird houses.

Since 1 sq. foot = $0.56

48 sq. feet = y

cross multiply

y * 1 = 48 * 0.56

y =  26.88

Hence it will cost Dakota $26.88 to make hid bird houses

In a recent year, 31% of all college students were enrolled part-time. If 8.6 million college students were enrolled part-time t
Ronch [10]

Answer:

28 million college students.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent all college students as x. This means that all part-time college students are \frac{31}{100}x. Because all part-time college students are also equal to 8.6 million, we have 8,600,000=\frac{31}{100}x. To find the number of total college students, or x, we have to multiply by 100/31 to get rid of the fraction on the other side:

8,600,00\cdot\frac{100}{31}=x

The left side of the equation evaluates as 27,741,935.5. Because we are asked to round to the nearest million, we have to round to 28 million, which is the closest.
