Answer:

512 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value is the sum of the products of probability and the value associated with that probability. Here, it is the sum ...

0.4(390) +0.4(890) +0.2(0) = 512 . . . million

The expected value of the loss over a 5-year period is $512 million.

A high school student took two college entrance exams, scoring 1070 on the SAT and 25 on the ACT. Suppose that SAT scores have a

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Due to the higher z-score, he did better on the SAT.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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.

Determine which test the student did better on.

He did better on whichever test he had the higher z-score.

SAT:

Scored 1070, so $X = 1070$

SAT scores have a mean of 950 and a standard deviation of 155. This means that $\mu = 950, \sigma = 155$ .

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{1070 - 950}{155}$

$Z = 0.77$

ACT:

Scored 25, so $X = 25$

ACT scores have a mean of 22 and a standard deviation of 4. This means that $\mu = 22, \sigma = 4$

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{25 - 22}{4}$

$Z = 0.75$

Due to the higher z-score, he did better on the SAT.

Two sides of a triangle measure 14 inches and 8 inches. which cannot be the length of the remaining side?

horrorfan [7]

1. The "triangle inequality" states that any of the sides of the triangle, is larger than the difference of the other 2 sides (the larger minus the smaller), and it is smaller than the sum of them.

2. So the third side of this triangle must be larger than 14-8=6 (in) and smaller than 14+8=22 (in)

3. So let a denote the remaining side, then 6 < a < 22, which means a can be any number in between 6 and 22 inches.
