A study uses a sample of 200 college students to learn about the number of hours they studied for their final exams. The mean nu

mber of hours was 136 and the standard deviation was 14 hours. If this data falls under a normal distribution or bell curve, which of the following statements is NOT true?
The number of students that studied 122 or fewer hours was about 32.

The number of students that studied 150 or fewer hours was about 168.

The majority of students studied between 122 and 150 hours.

No one studied less than 108 hours.

\displaystyle\mathbb P(X\le122)=\mathbb P\left(\frac{X-136}{14}\le\frac{122-136}{14}\right)=\mathbb P(Z\le-1)\approx0.1587
which means 0.1587\times200\approx32 studied 122 or fewer hours.

\displaystyle\mathbb P(X\le150)=\mathbb P\left(\frac{X-136}{14}\le\frac{150-136}{14}\right)=\mathbb P(Z\le1)\approx0.8413
which means 0.8413\times200\approx168 studied 150 or fewer hours.

So, neither of the first two are false.

Depending on your definition of "majority", you could also eliminate the third option. From the above calculations, you know that students that studied between 122 and 150 hours fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean, which corresponds to approximately 65% of the student population. "Majority" is often taken to mean "more than 50%", so this is also true.

This leaves us with the last option. For fun, let's compute that probability.
\displaystyle\mathbb P(X
which means 0.0228\times200\approx5 students studied less than 108 hours.

Answer:

i think B but I’m not 100% sure lol

Step-by-step explanation:

Here’s what I found on this app

3w + 8 - w = 4w - 2(w - 4)

2w + 8 = 4w - 2w + 8

2w + 8 = 2w + 8

0 = 0

I think you add all of the  sides for example add 5+5+10.6+10.6= 31.2 that would be your answer.

Evaluate f(x) = x^2 -3x+2
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally, in a problem like this one, you'd be given a couple of x-values at which to evaluate the function.  Since you didn't do that here, I'll just invent a few:  {-1, 0, 7, 11}.

For x = -1:  substitute -1 for x in f(x) = x^2 -3x+2:  f(-1) = (-1)^2 - 3(-1) + 2 = 6:

f(-1) = 6

Next:

f(0) = 0 - 0 + 2 = 2, so   f(0) = 2

For x = 7, substitute 7 for x in f(x) = x^2 -3x+2:  f(7) = 49 - 21 + 2 = 30 = f(7)

For x = 11, f(11) = 121 - 33 + 2 = 90 = f(11)
