Answer:
Lowest score needed=4.92
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the standard normal distribution table we find the value of standard normal deviate corresponding to area of 15%
For area of 15% we have Z= -1.04
Thus we have

Applying values we get

Thus lowest score needed = 4.92
Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
-7 < 3(x) + 5 ≤ 7
-7 < 3(-1) + 5 ≤ 7
-7 < -3 + 5 ≤ 7
-7 < 2 ≤ 7
(4/9)/x = 12
(4/9) = 12x
Divide both sides by 12
(1/27) =x
