In a recent year, grade 8 Washington State public school students taking a mathematics assessment test had a mean score of 281 w

ith a standard deviation of 34.4. Possible test scores could range from 0 to 500. Assume that the scores are normally distributed.
A random sample of 60 students is drawn from this population. What is the probability that the mean test score is greater than 290? Leave answers in decimal form, not percentages. Round to the nearest Hundredth (two decimal places).

Answer:

The probability that the mean test score is greater than 290

P(X⁻ > 290 ) = 0.0217

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):</em></u>-

Mean of the Population (μ) = 281

Standard deviation of the Population = 34.4

Let 'X' be a random variable in Normal distribution

Given X = 290

Z = \frac{x -mean}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } } = \frac{290-281}{4.44} = 2.027

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

<em> The probability that the mean test score is greater than 290</em>

P(X⁻ > 290 ) = P( Z > 2.027)

                    = 0.5 - A ( 2.027)

                   = 0.5 - 0.4783

                   = 0.0217

The probability that the mean test score is greater than 290

P(X⁻ > 290 ) = 0.0217

Label each angle as acute, obtuse, right, or straight and estimate the measure in degrees.
nlexa [21]

Answer:

7) Obtuse, I didn't use a protractor, so I'm estimating about 130 degrees.

8) Straight, all straight lines are equal to 180 degrees.

9) Acute, I estimated about 30-40 degrees, again, no protractor used.

Dina invests $600 for 5 years at a rate of 2% per year compound interest.
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

The investment after 5 years is $ 662.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal, P = $ 600

Time, t = 5 years

Rate of interest, R = 2 %

Time , t = 5 years

The amount after the time 5 years is

A = P \times \left ( 1+\frac{R}{100} \right )^t\\\\A = 600\left ( 1+0.02 \right )^5\\\\A = 662.45

So, the investment after 5 years is $ 662.45.

Determine whether the following statement is true or false and then explain with an example: "Due to a downturn in the economy,
Musya8 [376]
Of course, this statement is FALSE.
Let`s assume that a small town in Nevada had a population of 1,000.
When it lost 20% of its population:
1,000 * ( 1 - 0.2 ) = 1,000 - 0.8 = 800 
After that the same town gained 20 % more people:
800 * ( 1 + 0.2 ) = 800 * 1.2 = 960
960 ≠ 1,000
In the end the town`s population was not the same as it was before the downturm.

Jennifer has a credit card with an APR of 10. 22% and a billing cycle of 30 days. The following table shows Jennifer’s credit ca
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Jennifer's January finance charge will be $0.6717 more if it is calculated using the previous balance method.

<h3>what is the difference between the previous balance method and the adjusted balance method?</h3>

Previous balance method: Interest charges are based on the amount owed at the beginning of the previous month's billing cycle.

Adjusted balance method: Bases finance charges on the amount(s) owed at the end of the current billing cycle after credits and payments have been posted.

the total amount on which interest will be applied using the previous balance method = 807.94+41.81+75+18.65 = $943.4

so, interest levied on this= 943.4*10.22*(30/360)*(1/100)= $8.0346

now, the total amount on which interest will be applied using the adjusted balance method = 807.94+41.81+75+18.65-53.88-25 = $864.52

so, interest levied on this = 864.52*10.22*(30/360)*(1/100)= $7.3628

difference between charges by previous balance method and adjusted balance method = 8.0346-7.3628 = $0.6717

therefore, Jennifer's January finance charge will be $0.6717 more if it is calculated using the previous balance method.
