Answer:

Using calculator: 0.0415

Using Z-score Table: 0.0418

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways you can solve this problem.

1. Use the normal distribution function on a calculator.

Entered values:

Lower Limit: 126

Upper Limit: 999999999999999... (To encompass all the data)

Standard Deviation: 15

Mean: 100

2. Find the Z score and look up probabilities on table.

Formula for Z score:

Z=\frac{x-mean}{standard deviation} \\\\Z= \frac{126-100}{15}=1.7333...

Z = 1.7333

This means that the value 126 is 1.733 standard deviations away from the mean. We can look this value up on the Z table to find its corresponding probability.

This will show us the probability of the random sampling being equal to or lower than 126.

P = 0.9582

So to find the probability of it being above, we simply just calculate the inverse as all probabilities on the curve = 1.

1-0.9582 = 0.0418

NOTE: Values found from the table will usually be a bit different from if you find it from a calculator, the one you need will depend on the method you use in class.

Hope this helped!

If ΔABC ≅ ΔEDF where the coordinates of A(0, 2), B(2, 4), and C(2, −1), what is the measure of DF?
allsm [11]

Answer:

C. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Triangle ABC is congruent to EDF it mean that the sides are the same so the length of BC is congruent to the length of DF:

distance formula:

d = √(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

d = √(2 - 2)^2 + (-1 - 4)^2

d = √(0)^2 + (-5)^2

d = √0 + 25

d = √25

d = 5

The stock market gained 45 points on Tuesday and lost 32 points on Wednesday. It had closed on Monday at 2760 points. Where did
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The market closed with a rating of 2773 points on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start with what we know:

Monday at close it had a rating of 2760 points.

Tuesday it gained 45 points.

Wednesday it had lost 32 points.

Once written out it becomes less intimidating to answer.

Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday = Answer

2760 + 45 - 32

= 2805 - 32

= 2773
