On a standardized exam, the scores are normally distributed with a mean of 300 and a standard deviation of 20. Find the z-score

uysha [10]

Answer: 0.75

Explanation:

Mean(μ) = 300

Standard deviation(σ) = 20

Find the z-score of a person who scored 315 on the exam ;

Raw score (x) = 315

Z = (raw score - mean) ÷ standard deviation

Z = (x - μ) ÷ σ

Z = (315 - 300) ÷ 20

Z = 15 ÷ 20

Z = 0.75

With respect to engineering economics and the internal rate of return (IRR), Descartes’ rule of signs indicates there will be at

Alika [10]

Answer:

''there will be at most as many POSITIVE rates...''

Explanation:

The measure of investments' rate of return which excludes external factors such as inflation is known as Internal Rate of Return(IRR)

It is used in;

(1). Savings and loans.

(2). Liabilities

(3). Fixed incomes

(4). Private equity and capital management.

(5). Maximizing total present value and so on.

It can be calculate using the formula below:

NPV= C(n)/(1+r)^n = 0

That is internal rate of return can be use in solving NPV = 0.

Therefore, 'With respect to engineering economics and the internal rate of return (IRR), Descartes’ rule of signs indicates there will be at most as many POSITIVE rates of return as there are sign changes in the cash flow profile.''

Problem 15b.) Suppose that, three years ago, the small town of Middling experienced a sudden doubling of the birth rate. Today,

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer: to consider 14 years into the future "There will be a rightward shift of the supply curve for babysitting services 14 years from now, which will result in a higher equilibrium price and a higher equilibrium quantity". Which means option "A" is most correct.

Explanation: We shall Analyse the scenario in steps for your easy understanding and clarification.

STEP 1: In 14 years time the babies born during the child birth rate increase will start giving birth, and the babies born today will become they babysitter.

STEP 2: babies born three years ago are twice babies born today.

STEP3: The twice rate of babies born three years ago will want the normal rate of babies born today to serve them as babysitter.

STEP 4: In 14 years time, the parents that will need the service of baby sitters will be twice the available babysitter, because the parent in 14 years time are the ones born during the child birthrates increase. And the babysitter will be the one born today, during the normal child birth rate.

Form the analysis in the steps we can see that, they will be an increase in the demand of babysitter in 14 years time, which may lead to increase in price, Therefore, they will be an increase in the quantity of services needed.

There will be a rightward shift of the supply curve, because the curve will start from babysitting service when demand was normal to when demand comes high and then back to normal.

NOTE: The quantity in this scenario is not the quantity of babysitter available, but the quantity of parents in need of babysitter service.

THEREFORE FOR BABY SITTERS SERVICES, AS THE EQUILIBRIUM QUANTITY INCREASE, THE EQUILIBRIUM PRICE INCREASE TOO.
