Almost all medical schools in the United States require students to take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). The total score of the four sections on the test ranges from 472 to 528. In spring of 2019, the mean score was 500.9, with a standard deviation of 10.6.
Find the median of the MCAT scores.

Give your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the median of the MCAT scores was of 500.9.

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution 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]

It 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, which is the percentile of X.The median is also the 50th percentile, hence, in the normal distribution, it is equals to the mean.

In this problem, the mean score was 500.9, hence the median score was also of 500.9.

IF YOU WANT TO ANSWER MORE: HERE IS THE REST PART OF THE QUESTION—

2) y = 6x - 11 and 2x + 3y = 7

3) x = -3y - 5 and 4x - 5y = -3

4) x = 5y - 7 and -2x - 3y = -12

5) 5x - 3y - 8 = 0 and 2x - 3y - 6 = 0

6) x - 3y - 11 = 0 and 5x + y - 7 = 0

7) 2x - 3y = -1 and y = x - 1

8) -4x + y = 6 and -5x - y = 21

Answers

Answer:

1) x = 3 and y = -2

2) x = 2 and y = 1

3) x = -2 and y = -1

4) x = 3 and y = 2

5) x = 2

6) x = 2 and y = -3

7) x = 4 and y = 3

8) x = -3 and y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Answer :

y = -2

4x - 3y = 18 ----(1)

Substitute y = -2 in (1).

4x - 3(-2) = 18

4x + 6 = 18

Subtract 6 from both sides.

4x = 12

Divide both sides by 4.

x = 3

So,

x = 3 and y = -2

2. Answer :

y = 6x - 11 ----(1)

2x + 3y = 7 ----(2)

Substitute y = 6x - 11 in (2).

2x + 3(6x - 11) = 7

2x + 18x - 33 = 7

20x - 33 = 7

Add 33 to both sides.

20x = 40

Divide both sides by 20.

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 in (1).

y = 6(2) - 11

= 12 - 11

= 1

So,

x = 2 and y = 1

3. Answer :

x = -3y - 5 ----(1)

4x - 5y = -3 ----(2)

Substitute x = -3y + 5 in (2).

4(-3y - 5) - 5y = -3

-12y - 20 - 5y = -3

-17y - 20 = -3

Add 20 to both sides.

17y = -17

Divide both sides by 17.

y = -1

Substitute y = -1 in (1).

x = -3(-1) - 5

= 3 - 5

= -2

So,

x = -2 and y = -1

4. Answer :

x = 5y - 7 ----(1)

-2x - 3y = -12 ----(2)

Substitute x = 5y - 7 in (2).

-2(5y - 7) - 3y = -12

-10y + 14 - 3y = -12

-13y + 14 = -12

Subtract 14 from both sides.

-13y = -26

Divide both sides by -13.

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 in (1).

x = 5(2) - 7

= 10 - 7

= 3

So,

x = 3 and y = 2

5. Answer :

5x + 3y - 8 = 0 ----(1)

2x - 3y - 6 = 0 ----(2)

Solve for 3y in (1).

5x + 3y - 8 = 0

Subtract 5x from both sides.

3y - 8 = -5x

Add 8 to both sides.

3y = -5x + 8

Substitute 3y = -5x + 8 in (2).

2x - (-5x + 8) - 6 = 0

2x + 5x - 8 - 6 = 0

7x - 14 = 0

Add 14 to both sides.

7x = 14

Divide both sides by 7.

x = 2

6. Answer :

x - 3y - 11 = 0 ----(1)

5x + y - 7 = 0 ----(2)

Solve for x in (1).

x - 3y - 11 = 0

Subtract 3y and 11 to both sides.

x = 3y + 11 ----(3)

Substitute x = 3y + 11 in (2).

5(3y + 11) + y - 7 = 0

15y + 55 + y - 7 = 0

16y + 48 = 0

Subtract 48 from both sides.

16y = -48

Divide both sides by 16.

y = -3

Substitute y = -3 in (3).

x = 3(-3) + 11

= -9 + 11

= 2

So,

x = 2 and y = -3

7. Answer :

2x - 3y = -1 ----(1)

y = x - 1 ----(2)

Substitute y = x - 1 in (1).

2x - 3(x - 1) = -1

2x - 3x + 3 = -1

-x + 3 = -1

Subtract 3 from both sides.

-x = -4

Multiply both sides by -1.

x = 4

Substitute x = x in (3).

y = 4 - 1

= 3

So,

x = 4 and y = 3

8. Answer :

-4x + y = 6 ----(1)

-5x - y = 21 ----(2)

Solve for y in (1).

-4x + y = 6

Add 4x to both sides.

y = 4x + 6 ----(3)

Substitute y = 4x + 6 in (2).

-5x - (4x + 6) = 21

-5x - 4x - 6 = 21

-9x - 6 = 21

Add 6 to both sides.

-9x = 27

Divide both sides by -9.

x = -3

Substitute x = -3 in (3).

y = 4(-3) + 6

= -12 + 6

= -6

So,

x = -3 and y = -6

[tex]\sqrt{y^{2} -20y+100 }= y-10[/tex]

Answers

Notice that

y² - 20y + 100 = y² - 2•10y + 10² = (y - 10)²

Then

√(y² - 20y + 100) = y - 10

is equivalent to

√((y - 10)²) = y - 10

|y - 10| = y - 10

If y ≥ 10, then |y - 10| = y - 10, and

y - 10 = y - 10   ⇒   0 = 0

so there are infinitely many solutions, y ≥ 10.

Otherwise, if y < 10, then |y - 10| = -(y - 10), and

-(y - 10) = y - 10   ⇒   10 = -10

which is false, so there are no solutions in this case.

[tex]\\ \tt\hookrightarrow \sqrt{y^2-20y+100}=y-10[/tex]

[tex]\\ \tt\hookrightarrow y^2-20y+100=(y-10)^2[/tex]

Both sides are equal

Over the last three evenings, Diane received a total of 105 phone calls at the call center. The third evening, she received 4 times as many calls as the second evening. The first evening, she received 9 fewer calls than the second evening. How many phone calls did she receive each evening?'

Answers

Answer:

Make an eqaution from here.
Let’s make evening 2 “x”

So the first evening has 9 less then the secon evening so…
x-9
Of course theres the second evening (x).

X-9+x
Then the third evening has 4 times as much as the second meeting so…
x-9+x+4x

And when solved, it has to equal 105.

So solve from here.
Combine like terms.

6x-9=105
Isolate

6x=114
x= 19

First evening is 9 less then 19, so 10.

The second evening was 19 calls.
The third evening was 4 times the second evening so, 19*4= 76

A flagpole is 45 feet tall. A rope is tied to the top of the flag pole and secured to the ground 10 feet from the base of the flagpole. Will a 35 foot piece of rope be long enough to secure the flagpole? Justify your answer.
i give brainliest

Answers

Answer:

So the answer would be no, because the length of the rope is needs to be 46 and 35 is not long enough

Step-by-step explanation:

A flagpole, rope and the length of secure point from the flagpole are forming the right triangle, where the rope is a hypotenuse. Let a = 45 and b = 10ft. Use Pythagorean Formula to find length of the rope c

a² + b² = c²

Since we are going to solve for c, we set up the equation like this:

c² = 45² + 10²  (Substitute into formula)

c² = 2,025 + 100 (Add)

c² = 2,125 (Simplify)

√c² = √2,125 (Take the square root from both sides)

c = 46.09772228646444 (Round to the nearest whole number)

c = 46

So the answer would be no, since the length of the rope needs to be 46ft long and a 35 foot piece of rope is not long enough.

Ms Bonilla is saving for a vacation she currently has 150 in her savings account and plans to add $25 to the account each week .


Enter a function, S(w) that describes the total amount in her savings account as a function of weeks , w

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, so when creating any type of math problem, it is important to identify the parts of the problem and where they go. First, we need to start by putting the problem together. We will use one of the most common forms of equations of math, also known as the linear equation of y=mx+b.

So we have: S(w)=__x + __. S(w) is also equal to f(x), which is also equal to y. So: y= __x + __.

Let's start filling this equation in. So, because it says that she will add 25 dollars each week, The problem is addition. Also, the 25 dollars each week will represent the mx in this situation. Here's why:

The x in this can stand for the amount of week she added this 25 dollars to her account. So:

y= 25x + __.

Now, we can add the 150 to the problem because that is what she started with for this one-time deal. So now we have:

y= 25x + 150.

You can now where everything is represented, but we are not done. Let's change y and x back into S(w) and w like the question asks us to have. So:

S(w)= 25w + 150.

If you want to solve this question, just replace the number of weeks in place of all w's in the equation, like this: S(2)= 25(2) + 150.

I hope that this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

a figure is dilated by a factor of six

Answers

If a figure is dilated by a factor of 6, the perimeter of the figure will change by a factor of 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The objects that have the same shape are known as similar figures. Since they are similar in shape it doesn't necessary for those objects to have the same size.

Dilation is the process that enlarges or shrinks the size of an object to its similar figure without changing its size. The Dilation is based on a factor that makes the object to enlarge or shrink.

Since its size has changed so as the perimeter will be changed for both of the figures. The perimeter of an object remains same as the scale factor used to dilate the object.

Consider a square with its side as 2 cm initially and dilated with factor 3.

Perimeter of the square = 4 a. where a is the side.

Then the perimeter of the square will be 8 cm initially.

After dilation the side of the square will be changed as 6.

Then the perimeter will change as 24 cm.

Thus the perimeter of the square initially has increased 3 times after dilation.
