Answer:

4.05% probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 123.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

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, we have that:

\mu = 96, \sigma = 15.7

Probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 123.4.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 123.4. So

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

Z = \frac{123.4 - 96}{15.7}

Z = 1.745

Z = 1.745 has a pvalue of 0.9595

1 - 0.9595 = 0.0405

4.05% probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 123.4.

What does the variable represent in the equation 6-8p=38
GalinKa [24]

Solving the equation  6-8p=38 we get value of p = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of p in the equation 6-8p=38

Solving to find value of p:

6-8p=38\\Adding\,\,-6\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides:\\6-8p-6=38-6\\-8p=32\\Divide\,\,both\,\,sides\,\,by\,\,-8\\\frac{-8p}{-8}=\frac{32}{-8}\\p=-4

So, solving the equation  6-8p=38 we get value of p = -4
