A fish story: The mean length of one-year-old spotted flounder, in millimeters, is 127 with standard deviation of 22, and the mean length of two-year-old spotted flounder is 158 with a standard deviation of 23. The distribution of flounder lengths is approximately bell-shaped. Part 1 of 4 (a) Anna caught a one-year-old flounder that was 155 millimeters in length. What is the z-score for this length

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The z-score for this length is of 1.27.

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.

One-year-old flounder:

Mean of 127 with standard deviation of 22, which means that [tex]\mu = 127, \sigma = 22[/tex]

Anna caught a one-year-old flounder that was 155 millimeters in length. What is the z-score for this length

This is Z when X = 155. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{155 - 127}{22}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.27[/tex]

The z-score for this length is of 1.27.

Part B: What are the x-intercepts of the graph of f(x)? Show your work. (2 points)

Part C: Describe the end behavior of the graph of f(x). Explain. (2 points)

Part D: What are the steps you would use to graph f(x)? Justify that you can use the answers obtained in Part B and Part C to draw the graph. (4 points)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Factor the equation

[tex]f(x) = -16x^{2} + 22x + 3\\f(x) = -(8x + 1)(2x - 3)[/tex]

Step 2:  Find the x-intercepts of the graph of f(x)

[tex]-8x - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1\\-8x / -8 = 1 / -8\\x = -1/8[/tex]

[tex]2x - 3 + 3 = 0 + 3\\2x / 2 = 3 / 2\\x = 3/2[/tex]

Step 3:  Describe the end behavior of the graph of f(x)

Since the function is to the power of 2, that means that it is a parabola.  And since the leading coefficient is negative, means that the arrows will be pointing down therefore, the end behavior of this graph is as x goes to infinity, f(x) goes to negative infinity and as x goes to negative infinity, f(x) goes to negative infinity.

Step 4:  What are the steps you would use to graph f(x)

The first step that I would do is factor the equation.  Then I would find the x-intercepts of the graph and plot them on the graph.  I would then plug in 0 for all of the x values to get the y intercept.  After doing that I would get the vertex using the vertex formula plotting it on the graph.  Finally, I would connect all of the dots together to form the graph of the equation.

For the following function, one zero is given. Find all other zeros.

f(x)=x3-7x2+17x-15; 2-i

Answers

Answer:

1,-3,-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x)=x^3+7x^2+7x-15

Finding all the possible rational zeros of f(x)

p= ±1,±3,±5,±15 (factors of coefficient of last term)

q=±1(factors of coefficient of leading term)

p/q=±1,±3,±5,±15

Now finding the rational zeros using rational root theorem

f(p/q)

f(1)=1+7+7-15

  =0

f(-1)= -1 +7-7-15

    = -16

f(3)=27+7(9)+21-15

   =96

f(-3)= (-3)^3+7(-3)^2+7(-3)-15

    = 0

f(5)=5^3+7(5)^2+7(5)-15

   =320

f(-5)=(-5)^3+7(-5)^2+7(-5)-15

     =0    

f(15)=(15)^3+7(15)^2+7(15)-15

    =5040

f(-15)=(-15)^3+7(-15)^2+7(-15)-15

     =-1920

Hence the rational roots are 1,-3,-5 !

A certain test preparation course is designed to help students improve their scores on the LSAT exam. A mock exam is given at the beginning and end of the course to determine the effectiveness of the course. The following measurements are the net change in 5 students' scores on the exam after completing the course: 16, 21, 22, 12, 22
Using these data, construct a 90% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course. Assume the population is approximately normal. Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The critical value used is [tex]T_c = 2.132[/tex]

The 90% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course is (14.357, 22.843).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to find the sample mean and the sample standard deviation.

Sample mean:

[tex]\overline{x} = \frac{16+21+22+12+22}{5} = 18.6[/tex]

Sample standard deviation:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{(16-18.6)^2+(21-18.6)^2+(22-18.6)^2+(12-18.6)^2+(22-18.6)^2}{4}} = 4.45[/tex]

Confidence interval:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 5 - 1 = 4

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 4 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 2.132. The critical value used is [tex]T_c = 2.132[/tex]

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.132\frac{4.45}{\sqrt{5}} = 4.243[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 18.6 - 4.243 = 14.357

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 18.6 + 4.243 = 22.843.

The 90% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course is (14.357, 22.843).

Step-by-step explanation:

The person will receive all gifts if the are all of a multiple of 2, a multiple of 4, and a multiple of 5. Since 4 is already a multiple of 2, the person who will receive all is the one who is a multiple of 4 and 5.

20 is 4×5, so is a multiple of both numbers. There is no smaller number that is a multiple of both 4 and 5.

The 20th person will receive all gifts.

18 Geometry question: Use an algebraic equation to find the measure of each angle that is representative in terms of X

Answers

Answer:

12x - 28° = 116°

7x + 32° = 116°

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 28° and 7x + 32° are vertical angles. Vertical angles are congruent.

Therefore, to find the measure of each angle, we have to set each equation equal to each other as follows:

12x - 28° = 7x + 32°

Collect like terms

12x - 7x = 28 + 32

5x = 60

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 60/5

x = 12

✔️12x - 28°

Plug in the value of x

12(12) - 28

= 144 - 28

= 116°

✔️7x + 32°

7(12) + 32

= 84 + 32

= 116°

4) If the area of a square is 48cm²,
What is the length of each side?
Simplify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

4 sqrt(3) cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square is

A = s^2  where s is the side length

48 = s^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(48) = sqrt(s)

sqrt(16*3) = s

4 sqrt(3) =s

Answer:

4√3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of square = s²

s meaning side. Remember, by definition of a square, all the sides have equal measurements.

Set the equation:

Area of square = 48cm²

48cm² = s²

Isolate the variable, s. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Root both sides of the equation:

√48cm² = √s²

s = √48 = √(8 x 6) = √(2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 2) = (2 x 2)√3 = 4√3

4√3 cm is your length for a side.

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

We are given that the equation as;

-1/2x² + 5x = 8

-x² + 10x = 16

x² - 10x + 16 = 0

x² -2x -8x +16 = 0

x (x-2) -8 (x-2) = 0

(x-2) (x-8)
