So we are given that the mean is 42% and the sd (standard deviation) is 8%
Assuming our data is normal we can use the 68-95-99 rule
So one thing you should realize is that 42% + 8% is 50% which is passing. That is one standard deviation higher. So we use:
100 - 68 - 13.5 - 2.35 - 0.15 = 16. That means 16% of students passed the test. Which is terrible. They probably need to hit the books more.
Anyways if you have any question feel free to message me!
Hopes this helps!
Hi,
Essentially, we are saying that Alyssa gets 5 parts of the whole thing (140,000), Bart gets 3 parts of the whole and Meghan gets 2 parts of the whole. The sum total of their parts = the whole. So now we need to find out how much one part is. Thus,"one part" should be the variable. Substitute p for "one part", so Alyssa gets 5p, Bart gets 3p, and Meghan gets 2p. Since the sum of the parts = the whole, your problem sets up as: 5p + 3p + 2p = 140,000 --> 10p = 140,000 --> 10p/10 = 140,000/10 --> x = 14,000.
Alyssa gets 5p or (5 x 14,000)
Bart gets 3p or (3 x 14,000)
Meghan gets 2p or (2 x 14,000)
If the whole was a loss, it would be a negative, and instead of getting money, they would lose money.
I don't see the grid? did you attach a photo?
Answer:
no it is not the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
it is not the same because 13/4 is smaller than 3/14. 3 1/4 includes a whole number, and 13/4 doesn't.
