Answer:
z=-24
Step-by-step explanation:
(z-24)/8+2
(z-24)/10
((z-24)/10)10 Multiply both sides by 10
10(z-24) Distribute
10z-240 Divide both sides by 10
z=-24
Answer:
The minumum numeric grade you have to earn to obtain an A is 81.29.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

The professor curves the grades so that the top 8% of students will receive an A. What is the minumum numeric grade you have to earn to obtain an A?
The minimum numeric value is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 1-0.08 = 0.92. So it is X when Z = 1.405.
So




The minumum numeric grade you have to earn to obtain an A is 81.29.
