Answer:

1. The probability that x will be more than 25 is 0.6305.

2. The 55th percentile is 26.38.

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 26 and standard deviation 3.

This means that \mu = 26, \sigma = 3

1 Find the probability that x will be more than 25.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 25. So

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

Z = \frac{25 - 26}{3}

Z = -0.333

Z = -0.333 has a p-value of 0.3695.

1 - 0.3695 = 0.6305.

The probability that x will be more than 25 is 0.6305.

2 Find the 55th percentile of x.

This is X when Z has a p-value of 0.55, so X when Z = 0.125.

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

0.125 = \frac{X - 26}{3}

X - 26 = 0.125*3

Z = 26.38

The 55th percentile is 26.38.

If (2,3) is reflected over the y axis what is the new coordinates
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

(-2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you reflect a point across the y-axis, the y-coordinate remains the same, but the x-coordinate is transformed into its opposite (its sign is changed). Notice that B is 5 horizontal units to the right of the y-axis, and B' is 5 horizontal units to the left of the y-axis. the y-axis is the point (-x,y).
