Answer:

a) Z = 2.86

b) Z = 2

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, we have that:

\mu = 23000, \sigma = 3500

a. What is a Z score for a car with a price of $33,000?

This is Z when X = 33000. So

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

Z = \frac{33000 - 23000}{3500}

Z = 2.86

b. What is a Z score for a car with a price of $30,000?

This is Z when X = 30000. So

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

Z = \frac{30000 - 23000}{3500}

Z = 2

How do you do that?????

This question is easy once you understand. So when adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing with whole numbers you turn it into a fraction. So 12 is going to become 12/1. 8 1/8 is a mixed number so we have to turn it into an incomplete fraction. Here is how you do it. Multiply the denominator by the who number. So 8 x 8 = 64. Then you add your product to the numerator, which will make it 65. Then after this you keep your denominator giving you 65/8. Now we have to find the common denominator by finding the LCM. So the LCM is 8. Next we divide the old denominator by the new denominator. So 1 goes into 8, 8 times. And next 8 x the numerator. so 8 x 12 = 96. We do the same to the other side. Now we have 96/8 - 65/8 = 31/8. Finally we make this a mixed number. So 31 divided by 8. So you should get 3 7/8. 

I hope this helps! :)

Answer:

y=-\cos x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given trigonometric graph is symmetric about the y-axis.

This means it is a cosine function.

The basic is symmetric about the y-axis and has a y-intercept of 1.

Its range is -1\le y\le1

Since the given graph  has y-intercept at -1 with the same range, it is the parent cosine function reflected in the x-axis.

Therefore its equation is y=-\cos x
