Suppose that grade point averages of undergraduate students at one university have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 2.54 and a standard deviation of 0.42. Using the empirical rule, what percentage of the students have grade point averages that are less than 2.96? Please do not round your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the Empirical Rule, it is found that 84% of the students have grade point averages that are less than 2.96.

What does the Empirical Rule state?

It 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.

In this problem, 2.96 is one standard deviation above the mean. We have that:

The normal distribution is symmetric.Of the 50% of the measures below the mean, all are below 2.96.Of the 50% of the measures above the mean, 68% are below 2.96.

Hence the percentage is given by:

P = 50% + 0.68 x 50% = 50% + 34% = 84%.

Answers

Answer:

a. b = 2A/a

b. 30

Step-by-step explanation:

a. to solve for b:

[tex]A = 1/2 ab[/tex]

multiply both sides by 2

[tex]2A = ab[/tex]

divide both sides by a

[tex]2A/a=b[/tex]

so b = 2A/a

b. using the equation b = 2A/a

[tex]b = 2*18/(6/5)\\= 36/(6/5)\\= 30[/tex]

Answer:

a) b = 2A/a
b) b = 30

Step-by-Step Solution:

a) Solve the following …

A = 1/2ab
A = a/2b
A * 2 = ab
2A = ab
2A/a = b
=> b = 2A/a

b) Evaluate b when A = 18 and …

=> b = 2A/a
=> A = 18
=> a = 6/5

Substitute the Values in the Equation :-

b = 2A/a
b = 2(18)/(6/5)
b = 36 ÷ 6/5
b = 36 * 5/6
b = 180/6
=> b = 30

Hence, b = 30 when A = 18 and a = 6/5

Answers

The absolute value function that will be wider than the graph of the parent function, f(x) = |x| is (d) f(x) = 9|x|

How to determine the function?

The parent function is given as:

A wider function would have the following equation

f(x) = k|x|

Where:

k > 0

From the list of options, we have:

f(x) = 9|x|

Answers

Answer:

KC to StL = 300

KC to Den = 600

Step-by-step explanation:

KC to StL was the base distance, so we'll call that x.

KC to Denver is twice as long, so we'll call that 2x.

If we add the together is is 900 miles total.

x + 2x = 900    Combine like terms

x = 300

If x is 300, then 2x is 600.

What complex number is represented by the polar coordinates (4, -pi/4)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{z=2\sqrt{2} -2 \sqrt{2}i}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A complex number is defined as z = a + bi. Since the complex number also represents right triangle whenever forms a vector at (a,b). Hence, a = rcosθ and b = rsinθ where r is radius (sometimes is written as |z|).

Substitute a = rcosθ and b = rsinθ in which the equation be z = rcosθ + irsinθ.

Factor r-term and we finally have z = r(cosθ + isinθ). How fortunately, the polar coordinate is defined as (r, θ) coordinate and therefore we can say that r = 4 and θ = -π/4. Substitute the values in the equation.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{z=4[\cos (-\frac{\pi}{4}) + i\sin (-\frac{\pi}{4})]}[/tex]

Evaluate the values. Keep in mind that both cos(-π/4) is cos(-45°) which is √2/2 and sin(-π/4) is sin(-45°) which is -√2/2 as accorded to unit circle.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{z=4\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}i \right)}\\\\\displaystyle \large{z=2\sqrt{2} -2 \sqrt{2}i}[/tex]
