Answer: 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A college-entrance exam is designed so that scores are normally distributed with a mean(\mu) = 500 and a standard deviation(\sigma) =  100.

A z-score measures how many standard deviations a given measurement deviates from the mean.

Let Y be a random variable that denotes the scores in the exam.

Formula for z-score = \dfrac{Y-\mu}{\sigma}

Z-score = \dfrac{625-500}{100}

⇒ Z-score = \dfrac{125}{100}

⇒Z-score =1.25

Therefore , the required z-score = 1.25

A man invests $8 000 at 12% simple interest for 3 years. If he invests the same amount of money for the same time period at 12%
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

  $359.42

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in the investment values can be computed by making use of the formulas for the account balance in each case.

  compound interest: A = P(1 +r)^t . . . . interest at rate r compounded annually

  simple interst: A = P(1 +rt) . . . . simple interest at rate r

__

The account earning simple interest will have a balance of ...

  A = $8000(1 +0.12×3) = $10,880

The account earning compound interest will have a balance of ...

  A = $8000(1 +0.12)^3 ≈ $11,239.42

The difference between the two investments is ...

  $11,239.42 -10,880 = $359.42

Which of the following is a correct equation for the line passing through the
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

2x-3y=-12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the point-slope formula given by:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

The given line passes through the

point (-3,2) and having slope m=\frac{2}{3}.

We substitute the given point and slope to get:

y-2=\frac{2}{3}(x--3)

y-2=\frac{2}{3}(x+3)

we clear the fraction to get;

3y-6=2(x+3)

3y-6=2x+6

3y-2x=6+6

3y-2x=12

Or in standard form:

2x-3y=-12
