5. Based on recent results, scores on the SAT test are normally distributed with a mean of 1511 and a standard deviation of 312. Scores on the ACT test are normally distributed with a mean of 21.1 and a standard deviation of 5.1. Assume that the two tests use different scales to measure the same aptitude. If someone gets an SAT score that is in the 95th percentile, find the actual SAT score and the equivalent ACT score.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The actual SAT score is 2024.

The equivalent ACT score is 29.49.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set 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]

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

SAT score that is in the 95th percentile

Scores on the SAT test are normally distributed with a mean of 1511 and a standard deviation of 312, which means that [tex]\mu = 1511, \sigma = 312[/tex]

95th percentile is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.95, so X when Z = 1.645. The score is:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.645 = \frac{X - 1511}{312}[/tex]

[tex]X - 1511 = 1.645*312[/tex]

[tex]X = 2024[/tex]

The actual SAT score is 2024.

Equivalent ACT score:

The equivalent ACT score is the 95th percentile of ACT scores.

Scores on the ACT test are normally distributed with a mean of 21.1 and a standard deviation of 5.1, which means that [tex]\mu = 21.1, \sigma = 5.1[/tex]. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.645 = \frac{X - 21.1}{5.1}[/tex]

[tex]X - 21.1 = 1.645*5.1[/tex]

[tex]X = 29.49[/tex]

The equivalent ACT score is 29.49.

Given a lap around a track is 2/5 of a mile.

1 lap =2/5 mile

x lap = 11/2 mile

x lap =(11/2) ÷(2/5)

x lap = 11/5 or 2.2

Answers

Answer:

8⁶/8⁻⁵8¹¹

Step-by-step explanation:

When increasing the power of an integer by another power, you should multiply both powers to find the total power that the integer should be raised to. In this case therefore:

= 3 * 2

= 6

So the numerator will be 8⁶

When dividing the same integers raised to powers, you should subtract the power of the divisor from the power number being divided.

In this case therefore, you are to subtract (-5) from 6 (calculated in first part).

= 6 - (-5)

= 6 + 5

= 11

Another way of writing the above will therefore be: 8¹¹.

Answer:

Q1. a) q= 9.6

b) q= 84

Q2. a) p= 10

b) p= 70

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the equation with the given value and solve the equation to arrive at the answer.

Q1. a) q= 4 +0.8p

When p= 7,

q= 4 +0.8(7)

q= 4 +5.6

q= 9.6

b) q= 4 +0.8p

When p= 100,

q= 4 +0.8(100)

q= 4 +80

q= 84

Q2. a) q= 4 +0.8p

When q= 12,

12= 4 +0.8p

0.8p= 12 -4 (-4 on both sides)

0.8p= 8

p= 8 ÷0.8 (÷0.8 on both sides)

p= 10

b) q= 4 +0.8p

When q= 60,

60= 4 +0.8p

0.8p= 60 -4 (-4 on both sides)

0.8p= 56

p= 56 ÷0.8 (÷0.8 on both sides)

In baseball, each time a player attempts to hit the ball, it is recorded. The ratio of hits compared to total attempts is their batting average. Each player on the team wants to have the highest batting average to help their team the most. For the season so far, Jana has hit the ball 7 times out of 10 attempts. Tasha has hit the ball 10 times out of 16 attempts. Which player has a ratio that means they have a better batting average?

Tasha, because she has the lowest ratio since 0.7 < 0.625
Tasha, because she has the highest ratio since 56 over 80 is greater than 50 over 80
Jana, because she has the highest ratio since 56 over 80 is greater than 50 over 80
Jana, because she has the lowest ratio since 0.7 < 0.625

Answers

Answer: The correct answer is C. Jana has a higher ratio of hits to total attempts, so she has a better batting average. This can be calculated by dividing the number of hits by the number of attempts: Jana's batting average is 7/10 = 0.7, and Tasha's batting average is 10/16 = 0.625. Since 0.7 is greater than 0.625, Jana has a higher batting average.

Jana has a better batting average, because she has a higher ratio of hits to total attempts. You can find the batting average for each player by dividing the number of hits by the number of attempts. In this case, Jana's batting average is 7 hits / 10 attempts = 0.7, and Tasha's batting average is 10 hits / 16 attempts = 0.625. Since 0.7 is greater than 0.625, Jana has a higher batting average.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stratified Sampling is a form of sampling in which the researcher selects a population sample based on a demographic factor or strata such as race or gender. From the different strata, a random sample is then made such that each group or subpopulation is represented in the final sample.

It should be noted that retaining the percentages while selecting a randomized sample is essential to stratified sampling.

Hence, in this case, when the researcher obtains a list of all enrolled freshmen, manipulates the list so that females appear twice as often as males, and then selects from this list, this is an example of stratified sampling

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-4, -6) and (1, -6)? Write your answer in simplest form

Answers

The slope of the line that passes through the points (-4, -6) and (1, -6) is zero and hence the line is parallel to the x-axis.

What is slope?

The slope is the rate of change of the y-axis with respect to the x-axis.

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where

slope = m and y-intercept = b.

We know the greater the absolute value of a slope is the more steeper is its graph or rate of change is large.

We know slope(m) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).

Therefore, The slope of the line that passes through the points (-4, -6) and (1, -6) is,

m = (- 6 + 6)/(- 4 - 1).

m = - 0/5.

m = 0.

As the slope is equal to zero the line is parallel to the x-axis.

In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, according to Pythagoras's Theorem. These triangle's three sides are known as the Perpendicular, Base, and Hypotenuse. Due to its position opposite the 90° angle, the hypotenuse in this case is the longest side.

According to the graph -

The perpendicular measures 4 units.

The base measures 3 units.

To find the hypotenuse g apply the Pythagoras theorem -
