Answer:

a) 0.8413

b) 421

c) P_{95} = 189.675

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 165

Standard Deviation, σ = 15

We are given that the distribution of  IQ examination scores is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) P(IQ scores at most 180)

P(x < 180)

P( x < 180) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{180 - 165}{15}) = P(z < 1)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x < 180) = 0.8413 = 84.13\%

b) Number of the members of the club have IQ scores at most 180

n = 500

\text{Members} = n\times \text{P(IQ scores at most 180)}\\= 500\times 0.8413\\=420.65 \approc 421

c) P(X< x) = 0.95

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.95

P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 165}{15})=0.95  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(z < 1.645) = 0.95

\displaystyle\frac{x - 165}{15} = 1.645\\\\x = 189.675  

P_{95} = 189.675

If gas prices are now $3.75 and they were up 10% from 6 months ago, how much were gas prices 6 months ago?
Hatshy [7]

Given

gas prices are now $3.75 and it up 10% from 6 months ago.

Find out how much were gas prices 6 months ago.

To proof

gas prices now = $3.75

let the gas price 6 month ago = x

gas price now is rise up 10% from 6 months ago

First write 10% in simpler form

= \frac{10}{100}

= 0.1

Now the equation becomes

0.1x + x = 3.75

1.1x = 3.75

x =\frac{3.75}{1.1}

x = 3.41 (approx)

Thus gas prices 6 months ago be $ 3.41 (approx )

Hence proved

1. The variable y varies inversely with x and y = 6 when x = 3.
Y_Kistochka [10]
Inverse variation means y=k/x, we are given (3,6) so

6=k/3

k=18 so

y=18/x

y=18/27

y=2/3

Use the graphs to estimate both solutions to x^2+x-4=0
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

No graph so we'll use the quadratic formula

x^2+x-4=0

a = 1

b = 1

c = -4

x = -1 +- sqr root (1^2 - 4 * 1 * -4) / 2

x = (-1 +- sqr root (1 +16) ) / 2

x1 = (-1 + sqr root (17)) / 2

x2 = (-1 - sqr root (17)) / 2

Step-by-step explanation:
