Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X no of questions student answers is binomial with n =40 and p =0.5

If approximated to normal, X is Normal with

mean = np = 20 and variance = npq = 10

P(X>N) >0.10

We use std normal distribution table to get z value first then convert to x value

z>-1.28

So x>20-1.28(10) = 20-12.8 = 7.2

This is with continuity correction.

Hence without continuity correction this equals 7.2-0.5 = 6.7

x>6.7

n = 7

Explain how to find the absolute value of a number.
kykrilka [37]
The correct answer is C. Absolute numbers should always yield a positive value. Other choices doesn’t do that. Measuring the distance on a number line ensures the positive value without changing the magnitude of the number given.
