Answer:

Proportion of the students recalled more than 15 names is 91.77%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a researcher was interested in seeing how many names a class of 38 students could remember after playing a name game After playing the name game, the students were asked to recall as many first names of fellow students as possible.

The mean number of names recalled was 19.41 with a standard deviation of 3.17.

Let X = number of names recalled

SO, X ~ N( $\mu = 19.41,\sigma^{2} = 3.17^{2}$ )

The z-score probability distribution is given by ;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = mean number of names recalled = 19.41

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 3.17

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) 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.

Now, proportion of the students recalled more than 15 names is given by = P(X > 15 names)

P(X > 15) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{{\sigma} } }$ > $\frac{15-19.41}{3.17} }$ ) = P(Z > -1.39)

= P(Z < 1.39) = 0.9177 {using z table}

Therefore, proportion of the students recalled more than 15 names is 91.77%.

OMG PLS HELP WITH THIS IM PANICKING OMG I GOT A F IN MATH MY MOM JUST YELLED AT ME IM CRYING PLS HELP WITH THS-

andre [41]

Answer:

4. 50,000 square miles

5. The office would round to $800,000 instead of $700,000 because they would lose that needed $35,495. If they rounded down, their budget would be cut short, and they won’t have enough money for the office.

6. Five numbers that could also be the population: 577,777; 575,555; 578,999: 578,787; 581,545.

7. 600,000

8.584,000

9. 260,000

Step-by-step explanation:

4. In this question, we’re rounding the number, “54,555” go the nearest ten thousand. When rounding numbers you look at the number next to the digit your rounding. In this case, since the second number is not 5 or higher, we round it to 50,000 as that’s closer than 60,000.

5. Like I stated above: if they round to the lowest amount, they won’t have enough money to but what they need. Therefore, even if according to rounding it needs to be lower, it will not be beneficial to the company.

6. This are all possible numbers cause they can all by round to 580,000 AND 600,000

7. Since the number next to six is not five or higher, we round it to the closest number which is 600,000.

8. Since the number next to 3 is 5, we round it to the higher number. So it’s 584,000

9. Since the number next to the underlined nunber is 6, we round it to the closest number which is 260,000

If you have any more questions, you can ask me :)

What is the minimum value of the function g(x) = x2 - 6x – 12? -21 3-21 3 3+21

balandron [24]

Answer:

- 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum value occurs at the vertex of the function

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

To obtain this form use the method of completing the square

Given

f(x) = x² - 6x - 12

add/ subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 6x

f(x) = x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 - 9 - 12

= (x - 3)² - 21

with vertex = (3, - 21 )

The minimum is the value of k, that is minimum value = - 21
