Answer:

The answer is "1110, 20.4, and 31.408"

Step-by-step explanation:

For point a:

Given:

\to mean\ ( \bar{x})=1051\\\\\to standard \ deviation \ (\sigma)=194\\\\\to P(Z

Calculating the SAT score:

=1051+0.3055 \times 194 \\\\ =1110.267 \approx 1110

For point b:  

Given:

\to mean \ \bar{x}=19\\\\ \to standard \ deviation \ (\sigma) =4.7\\\\

Calculating the equivalent ACT score:

=19+0.3055 \times 4.7 \\\\ =20.43585 \approx  20.4  

For point c:

\to SAT \ Score =1563\\\\\to z=\frac{(1563-1051)}{194}= \frac{512}{194}=2.64\\\\

Calculating equivalent ACT score:

=19+2.64 \times 4.7 \\\\=31.408
