e the problem.
1) Scores on a test are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 9. The
teacher wants to give A's to the top 10% of students, B's to the next 25%, and C's to the next 42%. What is the
bottom cutoff for a C grade? Round your answer to the nearest whole number..
A) 68
B) 63
C) 77
D) 65

Answers

Answer 1

z = -1.34 <  (a - 70)/9

And if we solve for we got

a = 70 - 1.34 * 9 = 57.95 = 98

So, the value of height that separates the bottom 9% of data from the top 91% is 58.

And the answer for this case would be:

a) 58

What is the Normal distribution and Z-score?

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

The solution to the problem

Let X be the random variable that represents the scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X ~ N (70, 9)

 

Where μ = 70, and σ = 9

For this case, the figure attached illustrates the situation for this case.

We know from the figure that the lower limit for D accumulates 9% or 0.09 of the area below and 0.91 or 91% of the area above.

we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

 P(X > a) = 0.91  (a)

 P(X < a) = 0.09 (b)

Both conditions are equivalent in this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see in the figure attached the z value that satisfies the condition with 0.09 of the area on the left and 0.91 of the area on the right it's z=-1.34. On this case P(Z<-1.34)=0.09 and P(z>-1.34)=0.91

If we use condition (b) from the previous we have this:

P(X < a) = P(X - μ)/σ < (a - μ)/σ) = 0.09

P(z < (a - μ)/σ) = 0.09

But we know which value of z satisfies the previous equation so then we can do this:

z = -1.34 <  (a - 70)/9

And if we solve for we got

a = 70 - 1.34 * 9 = 57.95 = 98

Hence, the value of height that separates the bottom 9% of data from the top 91% is 58.

And the answer for this case would be:

a) 58

A racetrack charges $85 for each seat in the lower section, $60 for each seat in the upper sections, and $35 for field tickets. There are three times the amount of seats in the upper section as compared to the lower section. The revenue from selling all 22,800 seats is $948,000. How many seats are in the upper section of the racetrack?

Answers

Using a system of equations, the number of seats in the upper section of the racetrack is 3,600.

What is a system of equations?

A system of equations, also called simultaneous equations, is two or more equations solved concurrently.

We can use any of the following methods to solve simultaneous equations:

GraphicalSubstitutionEliminationMatrix.

In this situation, after forming the equations, we can use substitution and elimination methods to solve them.

Racetrack charge per lower seat = $85

Racetrack charge per upper seat = $60

Racetrack charge per field ticket = $35

Let lower seats = x

Let upper seats = 3x

Let field tickets = y

4x + y = 22,800 ... Equation 1

y = 22,800 - 4x ...Equation 3

85x + 60(3x) + 35y = 948,000

85x + 180x + 35y = 948,000 ... Equation 2

Substitute Equation 3 in Equation 2 to eliminate y:

85x + 180x + 35(22,800 - 4x) = 948,000

85x + 180x + 798,000 - 140x = 948,000

125x = 948,000 - 798,000

125x = 150,000

x = 1,200

Determining the number of seats:

Seats in the Lower section = 1,200

Seats in the Upper section = 3,600 (1,200 x 3)

Field tickets, y = 22,800 - 4x

y = 22,800 - 4(1,200)

= 18,000

Check:

85x + 180x + 35y = 948,000

85(1,200) + 180(1,200) + 35(18,000) = 948,000

102,000 + 216,000 + 630,000 = 948,000

948,000 = 948,000

Thus, based on simultaneous equations, there are 3,600 seats in the upper section of the racetrack.

The equation of the function described as;  y = 7 sin ( 4x + π/2 ) + 3

The general equation of the sine curve can be written as;

y = a sin ( nx + α ) + b

where : a is the amplitude, n = 2π/period, b = shift in the direction of y

            α°= shift in the direction of x

We are Given period = π/2 the maximum value is 10, the minimum value is −4 and y-intercept of 10.

 Thus,

a = (maximum - minimum)/2 = (10 - -4)/2

a = 7

 n = 2π/period = 2π/(π/2)

n = 4

 b = maximum - a = 10 - 7

b= 3

To find α as y-intercept = 10

y = 10 at x = 0

Substitute in the general function;

y = a sin ( nx + α ) + b

10 = 7 sin ( 4*0 + α ) + 3

Lucy wants to buy a small car. She speaks to her bank and they offer her a loan of £5000 over 5 years at a simple interest rate of 5%. How much simple interest will Lucy have to pay back in total?

Answers

Simple interest at a rate of 5% per year for five years on a principle of $5,000 has resulted in a total accrual of $6,250.00, which includes both the principal and interest.

What is simple interest?

To calculate simple interest, multiply the daily interest rate by the principle and the number of days between payments. Consumers that make on-time or early monthly loan payments benefit from simple interest. Most loans with simple interest rates are auto loans and short-term personal loans.

A = $6,250.00

I = A - P = $1,250.00

Formula: A = P(1 + rt)

First, convert R percent to r decimal, which is equal to 5%/100 or 0.05 per year.

Fixing our equation

A = 5000(1 + (0.05 × 5)) = 6250 \sA = $6,250.00

In the last 24 days, it rained 18 days. What is the ratio of rainy days to total days written as a percent?

Answers

The ratio of rainy days to total days written as a percent will be 75%.

How to illustrate the ratio?

Ratio demonstrates how many times one number can fit into another number. Ratios contrast two numbers by ordinarily dividing them. A/B will be the formula if one is comparing one data point (A) to another data point (B).

Ratio is used to compare two or more numbers. It is also used to indicate how big or small a quantity is when it is compared to another. It should be noted that in a ratio, two quantities are compared using division.

Since in the last 24 days, it rained 18 days.

Number of rainy days = 18.

Number of total days = 24

The ratio of rainy days to total days written as a percent will be:

= Number of rainy days / Total days × 100

= 18/24 × 100

= 3/4 × 100

= 75%

Therefore, the ratio is 3:4 which is 75%.

This is an equation in slope-intercept form, where "y" is equal to the value of the house after x years, "9000x" is the slope (or rate of change) of the equation, and 65,000 is the y-intercept (or the initial value of the house). The equation can be derived from the given information.The initial value of the house is 65,000, so the y-intercept must be 65,000. To find the slope, we can use the formula "rise/run", or change in y/change in x.

The house has increased in value by 54,000 ($119,000 - $65,000) over 6 years (change in x), so the slope must be 9000 (54,000/6).

The equation y = 9000x + 65,000

models the value of the house after x years, where y is the value of the house,

9000x is the slope of the equation,

and 65,000 is the y-intercept.

This equation can be used to calculate the value of the house after any given number of years.

Ravi sells real estate. Based on previous data, he knows that 5% of home tours result in a sale. Assume that the results of these tours are independent from each other. Which of the following choices are binomial random variables? Choose all answers that apply: A. Take a random sample of 30 tours and let L = the number of tours that result in a sale. B. Take a random sample of 3 tours and let K = the number of tours that result in a sale. C. Take a random sample of 3 tours and let M = the amount of sales (in dollars) generated by the tours.

Answers

The options that represent binomial random variable  are;

A. Take a random sample of 30 tours and let L = the number of tours that result in a sale.

B. Take a random sample of 3 tours and let K = the number of tours that result in a sale.

How to Identify Binomial Random Variables?

There are 4 primary conditions for a random variable to be classified as binomial random variable and they are;

1. The number of observations n is fixed.

2. Each observation is independent.

3. Each observation represents one of two outcomes ("success" or "failure").

4. The probability of "success" p is the same for each outcome.

No, in this case, since 5% of home tours result in a sale, it therefore tells us that number of home tours is the independent variable while the amount of sales generated is the dependent variable.

From the above, we can access the given options and say that the last option is not a binomial random variable because the variable M is dependent and so does not satisfy one of the four conditions.

However, options A and B satisfy the 4 conditions and we say they are binomial random variables.

Using the above graphic, it takes about _____ years to transition from using no oil to consuming 100 million barrels per day whereas it takes about______ years to transition from using 100 million to 200 million barrels per day.
A. 60, 10
B. 10, 60
C. 120, 50
D. 50, 120

Answers

It takes about 120 years for the graph to reach 100 million barrels per day whereas it takes 50 years to go from 100 million to 200 million.

As per the question the left axis indicates the amount of oil in the earth in trillions of barrels.

The right axis indicates the global consumption rate of oil in millions of barrels per day.

To the left of the red vertical line are model results that approximate reality whereas to the right are model-based predictions of the future.

The bottom axis is time in years.

The graph attached at the end of the solution.

Let the number of years of transition from using no oil to consuming 100 million barrels per day be a.

Let the number of years of transition from using 100 million to 200 million barrels per day be b.

From the given graph, we can see that initial consumption rate is low, and it takes 120 years for the graph to reach 100 million barrels.

But it takes 50 years to go from 100 million to 200 million.

This is known as exponential growth.

Therefore, the value of a is 120 and the value of b is 50.

By solving the equation we get ,t = ± 7 using concept of square roots.

How to find the square roots ?

Square root, in mathematics, a factor of a number that, when multiplied by itself, gives the original number. For example, both 3 and –3 are square roots of 9.

For example, 2 is the square root of 4, and this is expressed as √4 = 2.

We know that every squared number has two square roots one is positive and another is negative.

In given que,

given condition is t squared minus 49 = 0

Form of equation is ax^ 2 = c.

given condition can also be written as t^2 - 49 = 0

                                                          i.e. t^2 = 49

where a = 1

x = t

c = 49

So, the square root are 7 and -7.

So, equation become t = ± 7.

find the volume of the largest right circular cylinder that can be inscribed in a sphere of radius r.

Answers

The volume of the largest right circular cylinder is [tex]=\frac{4\pi r^3}{3\sqrt{3} }[/tex] cu. unit

Now, According to the question:

The given sphere is of radius R.

Let h be the height and r be the radius of the cylinder inscribed in the sphere.

We know that:

Volume of cylinder

V = [tex]\pi R^2h[/tex]    .....(1)

In right Triangle OBA

[tex]AB^2 + OB^2 = OA^2[/tex]

[tex]R^2 + \frac{h^2}{4} = r^2[/tex]

So, [tex]R^2 = r^2 - \frac{h^2}{4}[/tex]

Putting the value of [tex]R^2[/tex] in equation (1), We get

V = [tex]\pi (r^2 - \frac{h^2}{4} )h[/tex]

V = [tex]\pi (r^2h - \frac{h^3}{4} )[/tex]   ....(2)

dV/dh = [tex]\pi (r^2 - \frac{3h^2}{4} )[/tex] .....(3)

For, Stationary point, dV/dh = 0

[tex]\pi (r^2 - \frac{3h^2}{4} )[/tex] = 0

[tex](r^2 - \frac{3h}{4} )[/tex]   => [tex]h^2 - \frac{4r^2}{3}[/tex] => [tex]h - \frac{2r}{\sqrt{3} }[/tex]

Now, [tex]\frac{d^2V}{dh^2} = \pi (-\frac{6}{4}h )[/tex]

[tex][\frac{d^2V}{dh^2}]_a_t_h_=_\frac{2r}{\sqrt{3} }[/tex]   = x[-3/2 , [tex]2r/\sqrt{3}[/tex]]< 0

Volume is maximum at h = 2r/[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Maximum volume is :

[tex]= \pi (r^2.\frac{2r}{\sqrt{3} }- \frac{1}{4}.\frac{8r^3}{3\sqrt{3} } )[/tex]

[tex]=\pi (\frac{2r^3}{\sqrt{3} }-\frac{2r^3}{3\sqrt{3} } )[/tex]

[tex]=\pi (\frac{6r^3-2r^3}{3\sqrt{3} } )[/tex]
