Answer:
a) 6.68th percentile
b) 617.5 points
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:
a) A student who scored 400 on the Math SAT was at the ______ th percentile of the score distribution.
has a pvalue of 0.0668
So this student is in the 6.68th percentile.
b) To be at the 75th percentile of the distribution, a student needed a score of about ______ points on the Math SAT.
He needs a score of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.75. So X when Z = 0.675.
Answer:
Yea im pretty sure that it is A
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a probability related question, let the event be E
We know that the likelihood of an event happening is given as
Pr(E)=1
if an event will not occur the probability is
Pr(E)=0
a. This event is impossible: Pr(E)=0
b.This event will occur more often than not, but is not extremely likely:
Pr(E)=0<E>0.5
c.This event is extremely unlikely, but it will occur once in a while in a long sequence of trials:
Pr(E)=0<E<0.5
d.This event will occur for sure: Pr(E)=0
Basically you get the volume first:
10 times 10 times 50
Which is 5,000
And we're given the cans volume already:
9.42
So what we do now is divided the area by the cans for our answer:
5,000/9.42
Which is 530.785563
So Sean can stack 530 cans of beans in his shelf.
(when rounding is is 531 cans)
It would be 12
3*8=24 then divide that by 2 which is 12
