Answer:

a) A response of 8.9 represents the 92nd percentile.

b) A response of 6.6 represents the 62nd percentile.

c) A response of 4.4 represents the first quartile.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 5.9

Standard Deviation, σ = 2.2

We assume that the distribution of response is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

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

a) We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.92

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2})=0.92$

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

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2} = 1.405\\x = 8.991 \approx 8.9$

A response of 8.9 represents the 92nd percentile.

b) We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.62

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2})=0.62$

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

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2} = 0.305\\x = 6.571 \approx 6.6$

A response of 6.6 represents the 62nd percentile.

c) We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.25

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2})=0.25$

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

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2} = -0.674\\x = 4.4172 \approx 4.4$

A response of 4.4 represents the first quartile.

Point B, located at (-5, -8), is rotated 360°. What are the coordinates of point B?

Natalka [10]

(-5,-8)
The coordinates are still the same because a rotation of 360° is a complete circle, therefore the points remain in the same spot.

Answer:

y 0 1 2 3

P(Y=y) 0.0676 0.3549 0.3875 0.19

Step-by-step explanation:

P(Wed) = 0.26

P(Thurs) = 0.39

P(Fri) = 0.25

P(Sat) = 0.10

Y = No. of days beyond Wednesday it takes for both magazines to arrive i.e. 0,1,2,3

Y=0 means the magazines will arrive on Wednesday

Y=1 means the magazines will arrive till Thursday

Y=2 means the magazines will arrive till Friday

Y=3 means the magazines will arrive till Saturday

The possible combinations for Y are

Y(W,W) Y(W,T) Y(W,F) Y(W,S)

Y(T,W) Y(T,T) Y(T,F) Y(T,S)

Y(F,W) Y(F,T) Y(F,F) Y(F,S)

Y(S,W) Y(S,T) Y(S,F) Y(S,S)

So, we can classify these possible outcomes as Y=0,1,2,3.

Y(0) = Y(W,W) (both magazines take 0 days to arrive beyond Wednesday)

Y(1) = Y(W,T), Y(T,T), Y(T,W) (both magazines take 1 day to arrive beyond Wednesday)

Y(2) = Y(W,F), Y(T,F), Y(F,F) Y(F,W) Y(F,T) (both magazines arrive till Friday)

Y(3) = Y(W,S), Y(T,S), Y(F,S), Y(S,W), Y(S,T), Y(S,F), Y(S,S) (both magazines arrive till Saturday)

To calculate the PMF, we need to calculate the probability for each of the points in Y(0,1,2,3).

Y(0) = Y(W,W)

= 0.26 x 0.26

Y(0) = 0.0676

Y(1) = Y(W,T) + Y(T,T) + Y(T,W)

= (0.26 x 0.39) + (0.39 x 0.39) + (0.39 x 0.26)

= 0.1014 + 0.1521 + 0.1014

Y(1) = 0.3549

Y(2) = Y(W,F) + Y(T,F) + Y(F,F) + Y(F,W) + Y(F,T)

=(0.26 x 0.25) + (0.39 x 0.25) + (0.25 x 0.25) + (0.25 x 0.26) + (0.25 x 0.39)

= 0.065 + 0.0975 + 0.0625 + 0.065 + 0.0975

Y(2) = 0.3875

Y(3) = Y(W,S) + Y(T,S) + Y(F,S) + Y(S,W) + Y(S,T) + Y(S,F) + Y(S,S)

= (0.26 x 0.10) + (0.39 x 0.10) + (0.25 x 0.10) + (0.10 x 0.26) + (0.10 x 0.39) + (0.10 x 0.25) + (0.10 x 0.10)

= 0.026 + 0.039 + 0.025 + 0.026 + 0.039 + 0.025 + 0.010

Y(3) = 0.19

y 0 1 2 3

P(Y=y) 0.0676 0.3549 0.3875 0.19
