Evaluate square root of 24 - x when x = 6 . Write the answer in simplified radical form.?

1 answer:

4 0

So, first we input 6
24 - 6 = 18
So we now need to find the square root of 18
If you're allowed to use a calculator, the square root is 4.242

But if you don't, let's get as close as we can:
√(9 * 2)
Because the square root of 9 is 3:
3 * √2

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

mean (μ) = 70 years, standard deviation (σ)= 5.5 years.

a) The z score measures how many standard deviation a raw score is above or below the mean. It is given as:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$ , for a sample size of n, the z score is: $z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }$

Given a sample of 5 turtles, we have to calculate the z score for x = 60 and x = 80.

For x = 60:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }=\frac{60-70}{5.5/\sqrt{5} } =-4.07$

For x = 80:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }=\frac{80-70}{5.5/\sqrt{5} } =4.07$

The probability that a mean life of a random sample of 5 such turtles falls between 60 and 80 years = P(60 < x < 80) = P(-4.07 < z < 4.07) = P(z < 4.07) - P(z < -4.07) = 1 - 0 = 1 = 100%

b) The z score that corresponds to top 10% is -1.28.

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }\\\\-1.28=\frac{x-70}{5.5/\sqrt{5} }\\ x-70=-3\\x=70-3\\x=67\ years$
