It is assumed that the test results for a class follow a normal distribution with a mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 36. I

f you know that a student's grade is greater than 72, what is the probability that it is greater than 84? What do I know? What do I want to find out? What do we expect the answer to be? How do I go from what I know to what I want to find? Does this answer seem reasonable?

Answer:

0.7143

- You know the minimum possible grade of the student

- You want to find out the probability that that grade which is greater than 72 is also greater than 84

- Expect the answer to be 0.7143

- The explanation/steps is given below

- The answer seems (and is) reasonable. You only created a new lower limit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribution Type: Normal

Mean: 78

Standard deviation: 36

Range of marks: [78 - 36], [78 + 36]  = [42 to 114]

If you know that a student's grade is greater than 72, what is the probability that it's greater than 84?

In this case, the full probability level is between 72 and the upper limit of 114 (instead of between 42 and 114). First, find the fraction of this probability.

[114 - 72] ÷ [114 - 42]  = 42/72  = 0.5833

So, the probability of a student's mark falling between 72 and 114 is 0.5833.

Now making this a whole interval, 114 - 72 = 42

What fraction of this interval of 42 will bear marks between 84 and 114?

[114 - 84]  = 30

30/42  = 0.7143

Because of the first part of the question "If you know (are sure) that a student's grade is greater than 72...", your answer stops at 0.7143, since 72 was used as the lower limit.

jekas [21]
There exist a similar question where b = 68 instead of 6. First, determine the measure of the third angle, angle C,
                               m∠c = 180 - (55° + 44°) = 81°
Let x be the side AB, that which is opposite to angle C. Through the Sine Law,
                                  68 / sin 44° = x / sin 81°
From the equation, the value of x is equal to 96.68. Thus, the answer is letter B.

It should be noted that, according to the information provided, the single bar chart shows the projected proportion of sales based on the proportion of facings and the observed proportion.

Simply put, a bar chart is a bar graph. Rectangular bars that match the values shown are used to illustrate categorical data.

A bar chart, often known as a bar graph, is a diagram that displays categorical data as rectangular bars with heights or lengths proportional to the values they stand for. You can plot the bars either vertically or horizontally. A vertical bar chart may also be referred to as a column chart.

The bar chart's information reveals that the observed proportions for juice, mango, orange, apple, and pineapple are greater than the expected proportions.

Please help me answer this for a test im having trouble

Answer:

x + 1

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this question we need to represent "y "in terms of "x" in the first equation, and the plug in the "y" value in the first equation into the second one. Luckily for us in the first equation it already shows what "y" is equal to in terms of "x" (based on the first equation y = -x + 10). Now we just need to plug in the value that we got instead of "y" in the second equation, and so we get....

y = 7x + 2

(plug in the y value and get the following ….)

-x + 10 = 7x + 2

(now just solve the following equation)

-x + 10 + x = 7x + 2 + x

10 = 8x + 2

10 - 2 = 8x + 2 - 2

8 = 8x

8/8 = 8x/8

1 = x

Now that we know the value of "x", all we need to do now is substitute the value of "x" into any of the equations and we will get the value of "y". So we do the following.....

y =  7x + 2

y = 7(1) + 2

y = 7 + 2

y = 9
