The SAT and ACT college entrance exams are taken by thousands of students each year. The scores on the exam for any one year produce a histogram that looks very much like a normal curve. Thus, we can say that the scores are approximately normally distributed. In recent years, the SAT mathematics scores have averaged around 480 with standard deviation of 100. The ACT mathematics scores have averaged around 18 with a standard deviation of 6.
a. An engineering school sets 550 as the minimum SAT math score for new students. What percent of students would score less than 550 in a typical year?
b. What would the engineering school set as comparable standard on the ACT math test?
c. What is the probability that a randomly selected student will score over 700 on the SAT math test?

Answer:

The minimum sample size is 1,704.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a p-value of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation of 21,059,637 shares

This means that [tex]\sigma = 21059637[/tex]

What is the minimum required sample size if you would like your sampling error to be limited to 1,000,000 shares?

This is n for which [tex]M = 1000000[/tex], so:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]1000000 = 1.96\frac{21059637}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]1000000\sqrt{n} = 1.96*21059637[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*21059637}{1000000}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*21059637}{1000000})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 1703.8[/tex]

Rounding up:

The minimum sample size is 1,704.

The correct answer is H. B is the 200% of A.

Since A is the sum of the first 50 multiples of 3, while B is the sum of the first 50 multiples of 6, to determine what percentage of A is B, the base numbers of both calculations must be considered, that is, 3 and 6. Thus, since 6 is 200% of 3 (6/3 = 2), B is 200% of A.

Step-by-step explanation:

in the question given, the goal is to rationalize the denominator, or in other words get rid of any square roots.

recall this formula :

(a-b)(a+b) = a^2 - b^2

in this case, to rationalize the denominator of 3 - [tex]\sqrt{6x}[/tex] , we will multiply it and the numerator by its conjugate. the conjugate of    3 -

after multiplying the denominator by its conjugate, we get:

Answer:

28462.5

Step-by-step explanation:

During the first year it gained 10% and during his second year he gained 15% so you first add those and you get 25%.

Then you multiply 25% with 37,950.

25/100 * 37950 = 948,750/100

= 9487.5

To get the original amount you subtract 9487.5 from 37,950

37,950 - 9487.5 = 28462.5

So the original amount was 28462.5

Answer:

graphs 1, 2, 3, and 4, can represent a function

graphs 5 and 6 can not represent a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

If for a given graph of a relationship you can draw a vertical line that intersects the graph in more than one point, then we can conclude that the graph does not represent a function.

Now, if we look at the first four graphs, we can see that no vertical line intersects more than one point, so the first four can represent functions.

The special case here is graph number 2, where we can see a white dot right below a colored dot, and if we draw a vertical line there, the line will touch both points. But, a white dot means that the exact point does not belong to the graph, so if the line passes through there, it will not intersect the graph.

For the last two, this is not the case, in graph 5 and graph 6 we could draw vertical lines that intersect the graphs twice

(any line like x = n, with n < 0, intersects two points in graph 5, while the line x = 0 intersects twice the graph number 6)

So graph 5 and graph 6 can't represent functions.

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Because angle A and C are equal, it is an isoceles traingle.

This means that side BA is equal to side BC.

Thus, you can set 6x equal to 3x + 9.

Solving that gives you x = 3.

6(3) = 18    3(3) +9 = 18

Answer:

B. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angles A and C are congruent, then sides BA and BC are congruent.

6x = 3x + 9

3x = 9

x = 3

AB = 6x = 6(3) = 18

Answer:

0.001687 = 0.1687% probability that no more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vessels are destroyed and then not replaced, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question:

Fleet of 18 means that [tex]N = 18[/tex]

9 are carrying nuclear weapons, which means that [tex]k = 9[/tex]

9 are destroyed, which means that [tex]n = 9[/tex]

What is the probability that no more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed?

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = h(0,18,9,9) = \frac{C_{9,0}*C_{9,9}}{C_{18,9}} = 0.000021[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = h(1,18,9,9) = \frac{C_{9,1}*C_{9,8}}{C_{18,9}} = 0.001666[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.000021 + 0.001666 = 0.001687[/tex]

0.001687 = 0.1687% probability that no more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed.

let the total number of dogs owned be x

no. of cats owned = x+11

no. of fish owned = x+11+x+14= 2x+25

hence,

2x+25+x+11+x=352

4x=316

x=316/4= 79mil

no. of cats owned = 79 + 11 = 90

no. of fish owned = 2(79)+25=183

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 5.8 years, and  standard deviation of 1.7 years.

This means that [tex]\mu = 5.8, \sigma = 1.7[/tex]

The 10% of items with the shortest lifespan will last less than how many years?

Less than the 10th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.1, so X when Z = -1.28.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-1.28 = \frac{X - 5.8}{1.7}[/tex]

[tex]X - 5.8 = -1.28*1.7[/tex]

[tex]X = 3.6[/tex]

Less than 3.6 years.

Answer:

(x-5)^2 + (y+6)^2 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is given by

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius

(x-5)^2 + (y- -6)^2 = 2^2

(x-5)^2 + (y+6)^2 = 4

The volume of the water is: [tex]\pi (2)^2(8) - 6 (\frac{4}{3} \pi (1.5)^3)[/tex]

The volume of a cylinder is;

[tex]V = \pi r^2h[/tex]

For the cylinder, we have:

[tex]d = 4[/tex] -- diameter

[tex]h = 8[/tex] --- height of the water in the cylinder

The radius of the cylinder is:

[tex]r =d/2 = 4/2 = 2[/tex]

So, the volume is:

[tex]V = \pi * 2^2 * 8[/tex]

[tex]V = \pi * (2)^2 (8)[/tex]

For the 6 marbles, we have:

[tex]d = 3[/tex] --- the diameter of each

The shape of the marble is a sphere. So, the volume of 1 marble is:

[tex]V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]

The radius of 1 marble is:

[tex]r = d/2 = 3/2 = 1.5[/tex]

So, the volume of 1 marble is:

[tex]V_1 = \frac{4}{3} * \pi * (1.5)^3[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 6 to get the volume of the 6 marbles

[tex]6 * V_1 = 6 * \frac{4}{3} * \pi * (1.5)^3[/tex]

[tex]6V_1 = 6 * \frac{4}{3} * \pi * (1.5)^3[/tex]

[tex]6V_1 = 6 (\frac{4}{3} \pi (1.5)^3)[/tex]

Recall that the volume of the cylinder is:

[tex]V = \pi * (2)^2 (8)[/tex]

The volume of the water in the marble is the difference between the volume of the cylinder and the volume of the 6 marbles

So, we have:

[tex]Volume = \pi (2)^2(8) - 6 (\frac{4}{3} \pi (1.5)^3)[/tex]

The expression [tex]V = \pi \cdot (2\,in)^{2}\cdot (8\,in) -6\cdot \left[\frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot (1.5\,in)^{3} \right][/tex] can be used to calculate the volume of water in the vase.

As vase is of cylindrical form and the six marbles are spherical, we shall derived an expression from volume formulas respective to Cylinder and Spheres. Firstly, we know that volume of water in the vase is equal to the Volume of the vase minus the volume occupied by the six marbles, that is to say:

[tex]V = V_{v}-6\cdot V_{m}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]V_{v}[/tex] - Volume of the vase, in cubic inches.

[tex]V_{m}[/tex] - Volume of the marble, in cubic inches.

[tex]V[/tex] - Volume of water in the vase, in cubic inches.

Then, we expand (1) by volume formulas for the cylinder and sphere:  

[tex]V = \pi\cdot R^{2}\cdot H - 6\cdot \left(\frac{4\pi}{3} \cdot r^{3} \right)[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]R[/tex] - Radius of the vase, in inches.

[tex]H[/tex] - Height of the vase, in inches.

[tex]r[/tex] - Radius of the marble, in inches.

If we know that [tex]R = 2\,in[/tex], [tex]H = 8\,in[/tex], [tex]r = 1.5\,in[/tex], then the following expression can be used to calculate the volume of water in the base:

[tex]V = \pi \cdot (2\,in)^{2}\cdot (8\,in) -6\cdot \left[\frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot (1.5\,in)^{3} \right][/tex]

In a nutshell, the expression [tex]V = \pi \cdot (2\,in)^{2}\cdot (8\,in) -6\cdot \left[\frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot (1.5\,in)^{3} \right][/tex] can be used to calculate the volume of water in the vase.
