The Intelligence Test Scale in a school is composed of a number of subtests. On one subtest, the raw scores have a mean of 35 and a standard deviation of 6. Assuming these raw scores form a normal distribution: a) What number represents the 65th percentile (what number separates the lower 65% of the distribution)? b) What number represents the 90th percentile? c) What is the probability of getting a raw score between 28 and 38? d) What is the probability of getting a raw score between 41 and 44?.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

a) The 65th percentile is of 37.31.

b) The 90th percentile is of 42.68.

c) There is a 0.5705 = 57.05% probability of getting a raw score between 28 and 38.

d) There is a 0.0919 = 9.19% probability of getting a raw score between 41 and 44.

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.

In this problem:

The mean is of 35, hence [tex]\mu = 35[/tex]The standard deviation is of 6, hence [tex]\sigma = 6[/tex]

Question a:

The 65th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.65, so X when Z = 0.385.

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

[tex]0.385 = \frac{X - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]X - 35 = 0.385(6)[/tex]

[tex]X = 37.31[/tex]

The 65th percentile is of 37.31.

Question b:

The 90th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.

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

[tex]1.28 = \frac{X - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]X - 35 = 1.28(6)[/tex]

[tex]X = 42.68[/tex]

The 90th percentile is of 42.68.

Question c:

The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 38 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 28, hence:

X = 38:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{38 - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.6915.

X = 28:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{28 - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.17[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.17[/tex] has a p-value of 0.121.

0.6915 - 0.121 = 0.5705.

There is a 0.5705 = 57.05% probability of getting a raw score between 28 and 38.

Question d:

The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 44 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 41, hence:

X = 44:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{44 - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9332.

X = 41:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{41 - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8413.

0.9332 - 0.8413 = 0.0919

There is a 0.0919 = 9.19% probability of getting a raw score between 41 and 44.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection across the x-axis changes the sign of the y-coordinate.

Point P has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate, so is located northwest of the origin in Quadrant II. The quadrant that is southwest of the origin is Quadrant III, which is where points in Quadrant II are reflected to when they are reflected across the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relations are ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

These tell us ...

  tan(43°) = GH/DG

  GH = DG·tan(43°) = (12 cm)·tan(43°) ≈ 11.2 cm

and ...

  sin(HDE) = EH/ED = (11.2 cm)/(12 cm)

  ∠HDE = arcsin(11.2/12) ≈ 68.8°

The length HD can be found from ...

  tan(68.8°) = HE/HD

  HD = HE/tan(68.8°) = (11.2 cm)/tan(68.8°) ≈ 4.3 cm

Can I have help please

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the gradient describes the slope or steepness of the line joining two points.

it is expressed as the ratio of

y coordinate change / x coordinate change

so, we need to find 2 good points (typical with integer coordinates) per line to see how y and x changes between them.

for A I see e.g. (1, 1) and (2, 4)

for B I see e.g. (0, 5) and (1, 1)

so, for A

x changes by +1 (from 1 to 2)

y changes by +3 (from 1 to 4)

the slope or gradient of A : 3/1 = 3

and for B

x changes by +1 (from 0 to 1)

y changes by -4 (from 5 to 1)

the slope or gradient of B : -4/1 = -4

identify an equation in point-slope form for the line perpendicular to y = 2x + 8 that passes through (-3,9)​

Answers

Answer:

y - 9 = m(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line whose slope is m, the slope of a new line that is perpendicular to the given line is the negative reciprocal of m:  -1/m

Given y = 2x + 8, we see that the slope is 2 and figure that the negative reciprocal of that is -1/2.  This is the slope of the desired perpendicular line.

We can write the equation of this perpendicular line most easily by using the point-slope form y - k = m(x - h), where (h, k) represents the point:

y - 9 = m(x + 3)
