Answer:

y=120 * 1.1^x --- function

The monthly rate is 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

x \to months

y \to mice

So, we have:

(x_1,y_1) = (0,120) --- Monday

(x_2,y_2) = (1,132) --- One month later

Required

The function

The function is represented as:

y=ab^x

In (x_1,y_1) = (0,120), we have:

120 = a * b^0

120 = a * 1

120 = a

a=120

In (x_2,y_2) = (1,132), we have:

132 = a * b^1

132 = a * b

Substitute: a=120

132 = 120 * b

Solve for b

b = \frac{132}{120}

b = 1.1

So, the function is:

y=ab^x

y=120 * 1.1^x

To calculate the monthly rate (r), we have:

y =a(1 + r)^x

Compare to: y =ab^x

1 + r = b

Make r the subject

r = b-1

Substitute b = 1.1

r = 1.1-1

r = 0.1

Express as percentage

r = 0.1*100\%

r = 10\%

If the standard deviation of an exam is 5, the z-score us 1.95 and the mean is 80; what is the actual test score? (Round the ans
skad [1K]

If the standard deviation of an exam is 5, the z-score us 1.95 and the mean is 80, the actual test score is; 89.75

<h3>How to solve z-score problems?</h3>

We are given;

Standard deviation; s = 5

z-score = 1.95

Mean = 80

Formula for z-score is;

z = (x' - μ)/σ

Thus;

1.95 = (x' - 80)/5

1.95 * 5 = (x' - 80)

9.75 = x' - 80

x' = 80 + 9.75

x' = 89.75
