Anyone English here???

An English professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 14% of scores B: Scores below the

NeX [460]

Answer:

Grades between 62 and 64 result in a D grade.

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 problem, we have that:

$\mu = 71.9, \sigma = 7.8$

Find the numerical limits for a D grade.

D: Scores below the top 84% and above the bottom 10%

So below the 100-84 = 16th percentile and above the 10th percentile.

16th percentile:

This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.16. So X when Z = -0.995.

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

$-0.995 = \frac{X - 71.9}{7.8}$

$X - 71.9 = -0.995*7.8$

$X = 64$

10th percentile:

This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1. So X when Z = -1.28.

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

$-1.28 = \frac{X - 71.9}{7.8}$

$X - 71.9 = -1.28*7.8$

$X = 62$

Grades between 62 and 64 result in a D grade.

Mario claims that if the dinominator of a fraction is a prime number, then its decimal form is a repeting decimal. Do you agree?

vodomira [7]

Answer:

I do not agree because Mario's claim is not general.

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime numbers: These are a set of numbers that are divisible by 1 and itself only. Examples are: 2, 3, 5, 7. 11 etc.

And a denominator is the divisor in a given fraction.

Considering the following fractions whose denominators are prime numbers:

$\frac{2}{3}$ = 0.66666666...

$\frac{1}{7}$ = 0.142857142

$\frac{5}{11}$ = 0.45454545...

$\frac{3}{13}$ = 0.23076923

$\frac{1}{7}$ = 0.142857142

It could be observed that Mario's claim is not a general principle which is applicable to all fractions with a prime denominator. Thus, I do not agree with his claim.

The value of 8 in 56982 is how many times larger than the value of 8 in 156408

Len [333]

The value of 8 in '56982' is 80 whereas the value of 8 in '156408' is just 8 so the value of the 8 in 56982 is x10 larger than the value of 8 in 156408.
Hope this helps x
