Answer:

1.32% of students have the chance to attend the charter school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using 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.

This year the mean on the entrance exam was an 82 with a standard deviation of 4.5.

This means that \mu = 82, \sigma = 4.5

a.What is the percentage of students who have the chance to attend the charter school?

Students who achieve a score of 92 or greater are admitted, which means that the proportion is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 92. So

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

Z = \frac{92 - 82}{4.5}

Z = 2.22

Z = 2.22 has a pvalue of 0.9868

1 - 0.9868 = 0.0132

0.0132*100% = 1.32%

1.32% of students have the chance to attend the charter school.

A rectangle has length 127.3 cm and width 86.5 cm, both correct to 1 decimal place. Calculate the upperbound and the lowerbound
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Correct to 1dp

127.3 cm = 127.0 cm

86.5 cm = 87.0 cm

Upper limits:

127.0 cm = 127.05 cm

87.0 cm = 87.05 cm

Lower Limits:

127.0 cm = 126.95 cm

87.0 cm = 86.95 cm

upper limit of perimeter of rectangle:

P = 2(l+w)

= 2(127.05 + 87.05)

= 2(214.1)

= 428.2 cm

lower limit of perimeter of rectangle:

P = 2(l+w)

= 2(126.95 + 86.95)

= 2(213.9)

= 427.8 cm

therefore;

427.8 cm \leqslant perimeter < 428.2cm

just olya [345]

The computation shows that the area of the kitchen that's in the home in square feet is 50ft².

<h3>How to calculate the area?</h3>

It should be noted that an area of a rectangular space is calculated by multiplying the length by the width.

In this case, the area of the kitchen will be:

= 5ft × 10ft

= 50ft²
