Assume that the GMAT scores across the U.S. follow a bell shaped distribution (symmetric and unimodal) with mean 549 and standard deviation 76. Use the Empirical Rule (68-95-99.7 rule) to answer the following question: What is the GMAT score corresponding to the 16th percentile

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The GMAT score corresponding to the 16th percentile is 473.

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical Rule.

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

68% of the measures within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

This means that they are between the 50 - (68/2) = 50 - 34 = 16th percentile(one standard deviation below the mean) and the 50 + (68/2) = 50 + 34 = 84th percentile(one standard deviation above the mean).

In this question:

Mean of 549, standard deviation of 76.

16th percentile:

One standard deviation below the mean, so 549 - 76 = 473.

The GMAT score corresponding to the 16th percentile is 473.

Suppose you are investigating the relationship between two variables, traffic flow and expected lead content, where traffic flow is a predictor of lead content. You find the 95% CI for expected lead content when traffic flow is 15, based on a sample of n= 10 observations, is (461.7, 598.1).

The cost of producing x units of a product is $1.25 per unit plus $1,000 in flat production costs. If you spend $3,000 on production costs, how many units were produced?

3,000=1.25x+1,000

Answers

Answer:

1600

Step-by-step explanation:

1.25x + 1000 = 3000

Subtract 1000 from both sides

1.25x = 2000

Divide both sides by 1.25

x = 1600

Cathy lives in a state where speeders are fined $15 for each mile per hour over the speed limit. Cathy was given a ticket for $105 for speeding on a road where the speed limit is 60 miles per hour. How fast was Cathy driving?

Answers

Given :

Cathy lives in a state where speeders are fined $15 for each mile per hour over the speed limit.

Cathy was given a ticket for $105 for speeding on a road where the speed limit is 60 miles per hour.

To Find :

How fast was Cathy driving.

Solution :

Let, speed of Cathy is v miles per hour.

Number of miles per hour over the speed limit, n = v - 60 miles per hour.

It is given that speeders are fined $15 for each mile per hour over the speed limit.

So, total amount of fine for Cathy is :

105 = 15×( v - 60 )

v-60 = 7

v = 67 miles per hour

Therefore, Cathy was driving with speed of 67 miles per hour.

Answers

Answer: The ladder reaches 14.46 feet up of the building.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Pythagorean theorem,

In a right triangle,

(Hypotenuse)²= (Base)²+(perpendicular)^2

Using given information, we have

[tex](15)^2=(4)^2+(height)^2\\\\225=16+(height)^2\\\\(height)^2=209\\\\ (height)^2=\sqrt{209}\approx14.46\ feet[/tex]

Hence, the ladder reaches 14.46 feet up of the building.

Answers

Answer:

x =41.18114952

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

We know the hypotenuse and adjacent sides

cos theta = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos x  = 14.3/19

taking the inverse cos of each side

cos^-1 (cos x) = cos ^-1 ( 14.3/19)

x =41.18114952

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

take x degree as reference angle

using cos rule

cos x=adjacent/hypotenuse

cos x=14.3/19

cos x=0.75

x=cos 41

x= 41 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

C. 7(2a + 3) + 21 = 100+ 40

   14a + 21 + 21 = 140

   14a = 140 - 21 - 21

    14a = 98

    a = 7

D. 6+ 14 - 12c = 56

Calculate the variance and the standard deviation for the following sample data. Scores: 7, 9, 0, 1, 7, 4, 4, 7, 6

Answers

Answer:

Variance = 9

Standard deviation = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the Mean

Means = Sum of values/Number of values

= 0 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 6 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 9/9

= 45/9

= 5

Step 2

The formula for Sample variance

= (x - Mean)²/n - 1

Where

n = number of values = 9

Hence:

Sample variance =

( (0 - 5)² + (1 - 5)²+ (4 - 5)² + (4 - 5)² + (6 - 5)² + (7 - 5)² + (7 - 5)² + (7 - 5)² + (9 - 5)²)/9 - 1

= (-5² + -4²+ -1² + -1² + 1² + 2² + 2² + 2² + 4²) /8

= (25 + 16 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 16)/8

= 72/8

= 9

Sample Standard deviation = √Sample variance

Jim sells hot dogs for $2.95 each and steak sandwiches for $9.95 each out of his food cart. During a busy outdoor festival, he sold a total of 985 items for $7343.75. How many steak sandwiches did he sell?

Answers

Answer:

634 steak sandwiches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say X is the number of hot dogs and Y is the number of steak sandwiches.

2.95x + 9,95y = 7343.75

x + y = 985

y = 985 - x

2.95x + 9.95(985-x) = 7343.75

2.95x + 9800.75 - 9.95x = 7343.75

7x = 2457

x = 351

y = 985 - 351

y = 634
