Answer: 2 inches, 3 inches, or 3.125 and 2.083


Explanations:
The simplest way is to take 20% of the 2.5 inches and go that much above & below 2.5 inches.

2.5 x 20% = 2.5 x 0.20 = 0.5

So 2.5 - 0.5 = 2 inches was predicted
And 2.5 + 0.5 = 3 inches was predicted.

The more complicated way is to see number + 20% of that number = 2.5, and what number - 20% = 2.5.

Which solution sounds more like what you’re doing in class right now?

If it’s the more complicated way:

0.8x = 2.5 (80% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 3.125 inches was predicted

1.2x = 2.5 (120% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 2.083 inches was predicted

Sorry, this is probably confusing. Let me know what questions you have.

What is the Z-score for Paula if she got 1400 on the SAT, the mean was 1100 and the standard deviation was 275? step by step how
Setler [38]

mu = 1100 = population mean

sigma = 275 = population standard deviation

x = 1400 = raw score

z = z score

z = (x-mu)/sigma

z = (1400-1100)/(275)

z = 300/275

z = 1.0909090909091 approximately

z = 1.09

Convention is to round to two decimal places so that you can use a Z table to look up the area under the curve (which helps determine probability).

The positive z score is due to Paula's raw score being above the mean.
