The z scores are approximately:

Care of Magical Creatures: z = 0.333
Defense Against the Dark Arts: z = 0.583
Transfiguration: z = -0.263
Potions: z = -0.533

From those scores, we can say:

Best grade = Defense Against the Dark Arts
Worst grade = Potions

=====================================================

Further Explanation:

We'll need to convert each given score to a corresponding standardized z score.

The formula to use is

z = (x - mu)/sigma

where,

x = given grade for each class
mu = mean
sigma = standard deviation

Let's find the z score for the Care of Magical Creatures class

z = (x - mu)/sigma

z = (3.80 - 3.75)/(0.15)

z = 0.333 approximately

Repeat this process for the Defense Against the Dark Arts score.

z = (x - mu)/sigma

z = (3.60 - 3.25)/(0.60)

z = 0.583 approximately

And for the Transfiguration class as well

z = (x - mu)/sigma

z = (3.10 - 3.20)/(0.38)

z = -0.263 approximately

The negative z score means his grade below the average, whereas earlier the other scores were above the average since he got positive z scores.

Now do the final class (Potions) to get this z score

z = (x - mu)/sigma

z = (2.50 - 2.90)/(0.75)

z = -0.533 approximately

This grade is below average as well.

----------------------------

To summarize, we have these z scores

Care of Magical Creatures: z = 0.333
Defense Against the Dark Arts: z = 0.583
Transfiguration: z = -0.263
Potions: z = -0.533

Harry did his best in Defense Against the Dark Arts because the z score of 0.583 (approximate) is the largest of the four z scores. On the other hand, his worst grade is in Potions because -0.533 is the lowest z score.

A rectangular storage container with an open top is to have a volume of 10 m3. the length of this base is twice the width. mater

BartSMP [9]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

The volume of the container is 10 m³, therefore
x*2x*h = 10
2x²h = 10
h = 5/x² (1)

The base area is 2x² m².
The cost is $10 per m², therefore the cost of the base is
(2x²)*($10) = 20x²

The area of the sides is
2hx + 2(2xh) = 6hx = 6x*(5/x²) = 30/x m²
The cost is $6 per m², therefore the cost of the sides is
(30/x)*($6) = 180/x

The total cost is
C = 20x² + 180/x

The minimum cost is determined by C' = 0.
That is,
40x - 180/x² = 0
x³ = 180/40 = 4.5
x = 1.651
The second derivative of C is
C'' = 40 + 360/x³
C''(1.651) = 120 >0, so x = 1.651 m yields the minimum cost.

The total cost is
C = 20(1.651)² + 180/1.651 = $163.54

Answer: $163.54

What does absolute value mean?

Lynna [10]

Absolute value is the magnitude of a number without regard to its sign. for example, the absolute value of 5 is 5, and the absolute value of -5 is also 5!
