ACT scores are normally distributed and from 2015 to 2017, the mean was 20.9 with a standard deviation of 5.6. A perfect score is 36. What percentage of the testers scored a perfect score?

Question 4 options:

0.46%


0.35%


99.65%


99.64%

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that 0.35% of the testers scored a perfect score.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

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

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 20.9, \sigma = 5.6[/tex]

The proportion of scores above 36(perfect scores) is given by one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 36, hence:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{36 - 20.9}{5.6}[/tex]

Z = 2.7

Z = 2.7 has a p-value of 0.9965.

1 - 0.9965 = 0.0035 = 0.35.%.

Hence, 0.35% of the testers scored a perfect score.

fathi has $1.10 in his printing account. each sheet of paper he uses reduces his printing account balance by $0.25. Fathi wants to print out a PDF document that is 47 pages long. To save paper, he decides to print on both sides of each sheet and to print two pages on each sides of the sheet.

Answers

Answer:

IF THE question is After Fathi prints, what will be the balance in his printing account?

then it is: $1.9

There are 47 pages.

Printing on both sides would divide the number of pages into half.

47/2 = 23.5

2 pages on each side would mean 4 pages on one sheet. Therefore, the number of pages will be further divided by 2.

23.5/2 = 11.75

There cannot be 11.75 pages so we will round it up to 12 pages.

Each page costs $0.25 so 12 pages will cost:

12 x 0.25 = $3

Faithi has $1.1 so new account balance will be:

1.1 - 3 = $-1.9

Therefore, Fathi's balance in his printing account would be negative $1.9.

Answer:

The answer is $-1.90

If bracelet Y is chosen first, in how many ways can Jillian give out the bracelets? 1 2 3 4

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.09

b) 2 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Probability Pedro's shot will score will be given as) :

P(score) = 0.30

The probability he will score in 2 consecutive shots will be calculated as:

P(score) * P(score)

= 0.30 * 0.30

= 0.09

Therefore, probability he will score in 2 consecutive shots is 0.09

b) Jillian has 3 bracelets: X, Y, & Z as a gift. If bracelet Y is chosen first, the number of ways Jillian can give out the bracelets since bracelet Y is chosen first, she will have 2 bracelets remaining. So, number of ways to distribute these 2 bracelets are :

= 2!

= 2 * 1

= 2

Which could be in this order:

YXZ or YZX

Therefore, the number of ways if Y is chosen first is = 2 ways

The smaller triangle was dilated to form the larger triangle. What is the value of x? A smaller triangle has side lengths of 3 and 5. A larger triangle has side lengths of 9 and x + 1.

Answers

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

As the triangle was dilated, all its sides increased by the same ratio.

So, as one side was 3 and then increased to 9, the ratio is:

ratio = 9 / 3 = 3

So, using this same ratio for the other side given, we can find the value of x.

The larger side of length x+1 is 3 times greater than the small side of length 5:

x + 1 = 3 * 5

x + 1 = 15

Juan has just completed a 15 kilometer race in 20 minutes.  What was his average speed in kilometers per hour?

Solution

First, 15 kilometers is a distance, so

       d  =  15

Next, we are given 20 minutes and we are asked to present the speed in kilometers per hour rather than kilometers per minute.  We need to convert 20 minutes to hours.  Since there are 60 minutes per hour, we divide by 60 to find out how many hours it took

t  =  20 minutes / 60 minutes per hour =  1/3 hours

Now we can use the d=rt equation:

15  =  (r)(1/3)

If we multiply both sides

(3)(5)  =  (r)(1/3)(3)  or  r  =  45

Juan's average speed was 45 kilometers per hour.

A rectangular box is tied with a ribbon so that the ribbon crosses the box at the midpoints of its sides. If the box is 8 inches long, 6 inches wide, and 5 inches high, how long is the ribbon? hint: look for right triangles.

Answers

Answer:

The ribbon is 28.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the box is 5m high, 6m long, and 8m wide,

we have a right angled triangle with hypotenuse = unknown, x, say

Opposite = 5m and 8m

Then, by Pythagoras theorem

x² = 5² + 8²

x² = 25 + 64

x² = 89

x = √89 ≈ 9.4m

The ribbon is now (5 + 6 + 8 + 9.4)m = 28.4m

Answers

Answer:.03x=6

Step-by-step explanation x=200 minutes

Answer:

200 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, you should first set up an equation. Since you are trying to find the point where both plans cost the same, set them equal to each other. Let x be the cost for both. Write the equation:

[tex]16.95+0.05x=22.95+0.02x[/tex]

We place the x with the cost per minute because this is what you are trying to find. We add the cost per month.

Solve for x. Subtract 16.95 from both sides and simplify:

[tex]16.95-16.95+0.05x=22.95-16.95+0.02x\\0.05x=6+0.02x[/tex]

Subtract 0.02x from both sides:

[tex]0.05x-0.02x=6+0.02x-0.02x\\0.03x=6[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.03:

[tex]\frac{0.03x}{0.03}=\frac{6}{0.03}\\ x=200[/tex]

At 200 minutes, the cost for both plans would be the same.
