Answer:

The data item is X = 580

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 400 and a standard deviation of 60.

This means that \mu = 400, \sigma = 60

z=3

We have to find X when Z = 3. So

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

3 = \frac{X - 400}{60}

X - 400 = 3*60

X = 580

The data item is X = 580

Is 5/7 greater than 1/8?
slamgirl [31]
1/8 is greater because say you have 1/8 of a pizza you will get a bigger piece but if you had 5/7 it will be be 5 tiny pieces. so 1/8 is greater than 5/7

Show that the sum of the reciprocals of three different positive integers is greater than 6 times the reciprocal of their produc
Montano1993 [528]
If a,b,c are the 3 positive integers
1/a +1/b +1/c > 6/abc
(bc+ac+ab)/abc >6/abc so
(bc+ac+ab)>6
The lowest positive integers that are different are 1,2,3 so the lowest value that (bc+ac+ab) could have is 1•2+2•3+1•3=2+6+3= 11 therefore
1/a +1/b +1/c > 6/abc is true
