2400 in prize money...

the first winner will receive 1/3 of the money..
1/3 * 2400 = 2400/3 = 800
leaving 2400 - 800 = 1600

the next 10 winners will receive 1/10 of the remaining amount
1/10 * 1600 = 1600/10 = 160 <== each will receive $ 160

an outlier may be defined as a data point that is more than 1.5 times the interquartile range below the lower quartile or is mor

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Supposing a normal distribution, we find that:

The diameter of the smallest tree that is an outlier is of 16.36 inches.

--------------------------------

We suppose that tree diameters are normally distributed with mean 8.8 inches and standard deviation 2.8 inches.

In a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score 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, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

Mean of 8.8 inches, thus $\mu = 8.8$ .
Standard deviation of 2.8 inches, thus $\sigma = 2.8$ .

The interquartile range(IQR) is the difference between the 75th and the 25th percentile.

25th percentile:

X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.

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

$-0.675 = \frac{X - 8.8}{2.8}$

$X - 8.8 = -0.675(2.8)$

$X = 6.91$

75th percentile:

X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.

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

$0.675 = \frac{X - 8.8}{2.8}$

$X - 8.8 = 0.675(2.8)$

$X = 10.69$

The IQR is:

$IQR = 10.69 - 6.91 = 3.78$

What is the diameter, in inches, of the smallest tree that is an outlier?

The diameter is 1.5IQR above the 75th percentile, thus:

$10.69 + 1.5(3.78) = 16.36$

The diameter of the smallest tree that is an outlier is of 16.36 inches.

Which of the following is an infinite series?

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

for the first question it would be A. 4+8+16+32 because infinite series are such as :

9,18,36,72,144,288

10,20,40,80,160,

so basically its multiplying *2

I cant do #2 without seeing the formula

Quadratics need help making parabola

timama [110]

Answer:

The equation of the parabola is $y = \frac{1}{3}\cdot x^{2}-\frac{4}{3}\cdot x -4$ , whose real vertex is $(x,y) = (2, -5.333)$ , not $(x,y) = (2, -5)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

A parabola is a second order polynomial. By Fundamental Theorem of Algebra we know that a second order polynomial can be formed when three distinct points are known. From statement we have the following information:

$(x_{1}, y_{1}) = (-2, 0)$ , $(x_{2}, y_{2}) = (6, 0)$ , $(x_{3}, y_{3}) = (0, -4)$

From definition of second order polynomial and the three points described above, we have the following system of linear equations:

$4\cdot a -2\cdot b + c = 0$ (1)

$36\cdot a + 6\cdot b + c = 0$ (2)

$c = -4$ (3)

The solution of this system is: $a = \frac{1}{3}$ , $b = - \frac{4}{3}$ , $c = -4$ . Hence, the equation of the parabola is $y = \frac{1}{3}\cdot x^{2}-\frac{4}{3}\cdot x -4$ . Lastly, we must check if $(x,y) = (2, -5)$ belongs to the function. If we know that $x = 2$ , then the value of $y$ is:

$y = \frac{1}{3}\cdot (2)^{2}-\frac{4}{3}\cdot (2) - 4$

$y = -5.333$

$(x,y) = (2, -5)$ does not belong to the function, the real point is $(x,y) = (2, -5.333)$ .

44/12 in simplest form

NeTakaya

The fraction 44/12 is equivalent1 to 3 2/3.
This fraction is a IMPROPER FRACTION once the absolute value of the top number or numerator (44) is greater than the absolute value of the bottom number or denomintor (12). So, the equivalent fraction is a MIXED NUMBER which is made up of a whole number (3) and proper fraction (2/3).
The fraction 44/12 is equal to 44÷12 and can also be expressed in decimal form as 3.666667.
