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.

What is 10 squared plus b squared equals 22 squared
klio [65]
I'm pretty sure you are asking for the value of b. Let's actually write it and then solve it:
10^2 + b^2 = 22^2

Solving for b yields:
b = \sqrt{22^2-10^2} = \sqrt{484-100} = \sqrt{384} = 19.59

So, b = 19.59. If you want the answer in simplified radical form, we can also do that:
\sqrt{384} =  \sqrt{16*24} = 4 \sqrt{24} = 4 \sqrt{4*6} = 8 \sqrt{6}

So, b = 8√6 = 19.59

D+7/−3=4<br> What is d?<br> Thanks!
givi [52]

Answer

\boxed {d= \frac{19}{3}}


Solution

Simplify both sides of the equation.


\frac{7}{3} + \frac{-7}{3}


We are left with d = 4+\frac{7}{3}


Add

\frac{12}{3}+\frac{7}{3} =\frac{19}{3}


Hence, d = \frac{19}{3}
