Name the polynomial.

A recipe calls for 3 times as many chocolate chips as butterscotch chips. If there are 25 oz of chocolate chips, how many oz do

Bingel [31]

The amount, in oz of butterscotch chips needed by proportional reasoning is; 75oz.

<h3>What is the amount of butterscotch chips needed by proportional reasoning?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the the amount of butterscotch chips needed can be determined by means of the proportion premise declared in which case;

The recipe requires 3 times as many chocolate chips as butterscotch chips.

Hence, when 25oz of chocolate chips is used, the amount of butterscotch needed is 3 times 25 and hence, = 3 × 25 = 75oz.

The scores on the LSAT are approximately normal with mean of 150.7 and standard deviation of 10.2. (Source: www.lsat.org.) Queen

Answer:

$a=150.7 -0.385*10.2=146.773$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 35% of data from the top 65% (Or the 35 percentile) is 146.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

2) Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the scores on the LSAT of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(150.7,10.2)$

Where $\mu=150.7$ and $\sigma=10.2$

We want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

$P(X>a)=0.65$ (a)

$P(X$ (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.35 of the area on the left and 0.65 of the area on the right it's z=-0.385. On this case P(Z<-0.385)=0.35 and P(Z>-0.385)=0.65

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

$P(X$
