Raw scores on behavioral tests are often transformed for easier comparison. A test of reading ability has mean 67 and standard deviation 10 when given to third graders. Sixth graders have mean score 86 and standard deviation 9 on the same test. To provide separate "norms" for each grade, we want scores in each grade to have mean 100 and standard deviation 20. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
(a) What linear transformation will change third-grade scores x into new scores xnew = a + bx that have the desired mean and standard deviation? (Use b > 0 to preserve the order of the scores.) a = b = (b)
Do the same for the sixth-grade scores.
a =
b =
(c) David is a third-grade student who scores 79 on the test. Find David's transformed score.
Nancy is a sixth-grade student who scores 79. What is her transformed score?
Who scores higher within his or her grade? Nancy or David
Answer:
a.) a = -34 and b = 2
b.) a = -91.11 b = 2.22
c.) David scored 124, nancy scored 84.27
David scored higher
Step-by-step explanation:
for those in the 3rd grade
mean u = 67
s = 10
we used the z formula
[tex]z=\frac{x-u}{s}[/tex]
[tex]z=\frac{x-67}{10}[/tex]
we have the new score
u = 100
s = 20
we use this formula [tex]z*s+u[/tex]
[tex][\frac{x-67}{10} ]20\\[/tex] + 100
multiply through by 20
[tex][\frac{20x-1340}{10} ] +100[/tex]
dividing the bracket by 10
= [tex]2x-134+100[/tex]
= [tex]2x-34[/tex]
from this solution above,
a = -34 and b = 2
b.)
we solve for those in the 6th grade
u = 86
s = 9
[tex]\frac{x-86}{9}[/tex]
for new score,
y = 100
s = 20
[tex][\frac{x-86}{9} ]20+100[/tex]
[tex]2.22x-191.11+100\\= 2.22x - 91.11[/tex]
from this solution
a = -91.11
b = 2.22
c.) if David scored 79
[tex]= 2(x)-34[/tex]
= 2(79) - 34
= 158 - 34
= 124
if nancy scored 79
= 2.22(79) - 91.11
= 175.38 - 91.11
= 84.27
from these scores we can see that David scored higher in his grade

Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of the arrow, we must add together the areas of the rectangle and the triangle that make up the arrow. The rectangle has a length of 10 inches and a width of 4 inches, and the triangle has a base of 8 inches and a height of 2 inches. Using this information, we can plug numbers into the following formula:
Area of arrow = area of rectangle + area of triangle
Area of arrow = (10*4)+(1/2*8*2)
Area of arrow = 40 inches squared + 8 inches squared
Area of arrow = 48 inches squared
Therefore, the correct answer is option C, 48 square units (in this case, inches).

1:prove that the tangent at the point (1,-2) to the circle x²+y²=5 also touches the circle x²+y²-8x+6y+20=0 .Also find the point of contact.
2:find the length of tangent to the circle
3x²+3y²-7x-6y=12 drawn from (6,-7)
Circle 1 has center at (0, 0)
The tangent passes through the center and point (1, -2).
Equation of tangent at (1, -2):
x*1 + y*(-2) = 5x - 2y = 5x = 2y + 5If the same line is tangent to circle 2 then they have one common point.
Solve the system:
x = 2y + 5x² + y² - 8x + 6y + 20 = 0Substitute x:
(2y + 5)² + y² - 8(2y + 5) + 6y + 20 = 04y² + 20y + 25 - 16y - 40 + 6y + 20 = 05y² + 10y + 5 = 0y² + 2y + 1 = 0(y + 1)² = 0y + 1 = 0y = -1 ⇒ x = 2(-1) + 5 = -2 + 5 = 3We see only one point of contact, (3, -1), this proves the line is tangent to circle 2 as well.
#2Given circle:
3x² + 3y² - 7x - 6y = 12 and external point (6, -7).Rewrite the equation of the circle as:
3x² + 3y² - 7x - 6y = 12x² + y² - 7/3x - 2y = 4x² - 2*7/6x + 49/36 + y² - 2y + 1 = 4 + 49/36 + 1(x - 7/6)² + (y - 1)² = 229/36The center is (7/6, 1) the radius is √229/36
The length of the tangent t is the leg of the right triangle with another leg r being the radius and the hypotenuse d being the distance between the center and the external point:
t² = d² - r²t² = (6 - 7/6)² + (-7 - 1)² - 229/36t² = 36 - 14 + 49/36 + 64 - 229/36t² = 86 - 180/36t² = 81t = 9Erika wondered if there is a relationship between the amount of sugar (in grams) and the number of calories in movie theater candy.

because it is a linear function it means it has the same slope in every point
so you have to take 2 points and find the slope
I take points (0,1) and (4,4)
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
note that it does not matter which points you chose to be second or first
m = (4-1) / (4-0) = 3/4
you can solve it from the graph too 3/4 is y/x it means for every 4 unit right move 3 units up
What is the domain of the function graphed below?
Answer:
x < 7
Step-by-step explanation:
the domain of a function defines the valid x values for the function.
as we go from left to right through all possible values of x, we see all values incl. x=-1 are creating a valid function result (y) for this function. until we reach x=7.
the empty ball indicates that there is no y value defined here. and for any value x>7 there is no y value defined.
so, x < 7 is the right one.

In 2006 the number of tickets sold was 210.
The ratio Number of adult tickets: Number of student tickets was 23:19.
How
many
adult tickets were sold?
Answer:
115
Step-by-step explanation:
There were 115 adult tickets were sold.
What is ratio?A ratio shows how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are eight oranges and six lemons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six.
Given that, the number of tickets sold was 210. The ratio Number of adult tickets: Number of student tickets was 23:19.
Let the number of tickets sold for adults be 23x and for students be 19x
Therefore, 23x+19x = 210
42x = 210
x = 210/42
x = 5
So, Number of adult tickets = 5x23 = 115
Hence, There were 115 adult tickets were sold.

6.) Ms. Speer is scuba diving. She descends 5 feet below sea level. She descends the same distance 4 more times. What is Ms. Speer's final elevation? *
Answer:
-25 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
First she descends 5 feet below sea level
She then descends the SAME DISTANCE ( so 5 feet ) 4 MORE TIMES
So feet descended = 4 * 5 + 5
4 * 5 = 20
20 + 5 = 25
Her final elevation will be -25 feet
( it's important that we add a negative sign because she is descending meaning going down )

Executives from Six Flags, a well-known amusement park chain, had interest in constructing a Six Flags theme park in a location near Ames city limits. Experts believed that approximately 15% of the surrounding population would be interested in becoming season ticket holders. A random sample of 500 residents of Story County was collected (of the approximately 80,000 residents of Story County). Of the 500 people sampled, 124 said that they would be interested in purchasing season tickets to a Six Flags in Ames. The mean of the sampling distribution for the sample proportion when taking samples of size 500 from this population is equal to ___________.
Answer:
The mean of the sampling distribution for the sample proportion when taking samples of size 500 from this population is equal to 0.248.
Step-by-step explanation:
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
Of the 500 people sampled, 124 said that they would be interested in purchasing season tickets to a Six Flags in Ames.
This means that [tex]p = \frac{124}{500} = 0.248[/tex]
The mean of the sampling distribution for the sample proportion when taking samples of size 500 from this population is equal to
By the Central Limit Theorem, it is equal to the sample proportion of 0.248.

Calculating area of rectangle.
Your measurements Another student's measurements
Length (cm) 20.70 20.74
Width (cm) 10.44 10.46
Area (cm2) ________ ________
Required:
Why might two students have different calculated areas when measuring the same rectangle?
Answer:
Your measurements; Area = 216.108 cm²
Another student's measurements; Area = 216.9404 cm²
- Difference in area could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they made use of different measuring tools.
Step-by-step explanation:
For Your measurements;
Length of rectangle = 20.70 cm
Width of rectangle = 10.44 cm
Area of rectangle is given by; A = length × width = 20.7 × 10.44 = 216.108 cm²
For Another student's measurements;
Length of rectangle = 20.74 cm
Width of rectangle = 10.46 cm
Area = 20.74 × 10.46
Area = 216.9404 cm²
The areas they both obtained are not of equal values and this could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they used different measuring tools.
