According to a company's website, the top 15% of the candidates who take the entrance test will be called for an interview. You have just been called for an interview. The reported mean and standard deviation of the test scores are 70 and 7, respectively. If test scores are normally distributed, what is the minimum score required for an interview?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The minimum score required for an interview is 77.252

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.

Top 15% of the candidates is a ranking that is equivalent to = 100 - 15% = 85th percentile.

The z score of 85th percentile = 1.036

Mean = 70

Standard Deviation = 7

Minimum score = raw score = ???

Hence:

1.036 = x - 70/7

Cross Multiply

1.036 × 7 = x - 70

7.252 = x - 70

x = 70 + 7.252

x = 77.252

The minimum score required for an interview is 77.252

f(x) = √x-2
f(x) = √x
f(x) = √x+4

Answers

Answer:

Option (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Parent function of the graph attached,

f(x) = [tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex]

If the given function is shifted by 'a' units to the left,

Rule for the transformation is,

g(x) = f(x + a)

So the transformed function will be in the form of g(x) = [tex]\sqrt{x+a}[/tex]

Therefore, from the given options, f(x) = [tex]\sqrt{x+4}[/tex] will match our requirements.

Option (4) will be the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A restaurant chef ordered 4 pounds of beef at $3.25 per pound, 6 pounds of potatoes at $1.96 a pound, and 5 pounds of carrots at $1.81 per pound. He estimates that this will make 28 meals. If he charges $20 per meal, how much profit will he make for each meal?

Answers

Answer:

Profit = $18.8 per meal

Step-by-step explanation:

Chef ordered beef = 4 pounds

Cost of beef = $3.25 per pound

Total cost of beef = 4 × 3.25 = $13

Amount of potatoes ordered = 6 pounds

Cost of potatoes = $1.96 per pound

Total cost of potatoes = 6 × 1.96

                                     = $11.76  

Amount of carrots ordered = 5 pounds

Cost of carrots = $1.81 per pound

Total cost of carrots = 5 × 1.81 = $9.05

Total amount of beef, potatoes and carrots = $13 + $11.76 + $9.05

                                                                        = $33.81

Number of meals prepared with material purchased = 28

Per meal cost = [tex]\frac{33.81}{28}[/tex] = $1.2075

Selling price of one meal = $20

Profit per meal = Selling price - Cost price

                         = 20 - 1.2075

                         = 18.7925

                         ≈ $18.8

Therefore, he will make $18.8 for each meal.

Isabella owns a rectangular lot with an area of 9/32 SQAURE mile. If the length of the western side of her lot is 3/4 mile, what is the length of the northern side?

Answers

Answer:

as below

Step-by-step explanation:

9/32=3/4 * y/x

becasue this is multiplication of fractions ,  its' not too tough to figure out 3 times what makes 9 and 4 times what makes 32

y=3

x=8

so the answer is 3/8 mile

The length of the northern side of a rectangular plot is 3/8 mile.

Here,

Area of rectangular lot = 9/32 square mile.

Length of the western side of lot = 3/4 mile.

We have to find the length of the northern side.

What is Area of rectangle?

The area of a rectangle is product of length and width.

Now,

Area of rectangular lot = 9/32 square mile.

Length of the western side of lot ( width ) = 3/4 mile.

Let the length of the northern side ( length ) = x mile

So,

Area of rectangle = length x width

[tex]\frac{9}{32} = x * \frac{3}{4} \\\\x = \frac{9}{32} *\frac{4}{3} \\\\x = \frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Hence, The length of the northern side of a rectangular plot is 3/8 mile.

A department store purchases screen-printed t-shirts at a cost of $5 per shirt. They mark up the price 150% (making the selling price 250% of the store's purchase price) and put them on the sales floor. Every month that a t-shirt doesn't sell, the store reduces the selling price by 25%.Which expression shows the selling price after one monthly price reduction?

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost price = $5 per T - shirt

Markup = 150% or cost price

Every month which shirt doesn't sell, selling price drops by 25%

Selling price of Tshirt = (150% * $5) = $7.5

Price after 1 month = (100% - 25%) * $7.5 = $5.625

Hence, the equation could be expressed as :

Price after one month:

(1.5 * $5) - 0.75 * (1.5 * $5)

7.5 - 0.75(7.5)

Answer:

A researcher wishes to conduct a study of the color preferences of new car buyers. Suppose that 50% of this population prefers the color green. If 15 buyers are randomly selected, what is the probability that exactly a third of the buyers would prefer green?

Answers

Answer:

0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 50% of this population prefers the color green.

Let p the probability that one person selected from the population prefer the green color of the car. So,

p=0.05

There is only two chance, any person either prefer the green color or not, assuming this holds true for every person, so the mentioned population can be assumed as Bernoulli's population.

By using Bernoulli's theorem, the probability of exactly r success of n randomly selected from the Bernoulli's population is

[tex]P(r)=\binom{n}{r}p^{r}{(1-p)}^{n-r}\cdots(i)[/tex]

Here, 15 buyers are randomly selected, so, n= 15 and

[tex]r= \frac1 3 \times 15=5[/tex]

So, by using equation (i), the probability that exactly 5 buyers would prefer green out of 15 randomly selected buyers is

[tex]P(r=5)=\binom{15}{5}(0.5)^{5}{(1-0.5)}^{15-5}[/tex]

[tex]=\binom{15}{5}(0.5)^{5}{0.5}^{10}[/tex]

[tex]=\binom{15}{5}(0.5)^{15}[/tex]

=0.0916

Hence, the probability that exactly 5 buyers would prefer green out of 15 randomly selected buyers is 0.09.

Answers

Answer:

estimated number of pages it can print will 80 in 1 min.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 12 pages/9 Seconds then by multiplying by 60 secs as there are 60 secs in 1 min.

we get

12/9 then multiply by 60 you will get 80 pages in 1 minute.

Number of pages a printer can print in 9 seconds = 12 pages

Number of pages than can be printed in 1 second =

= 12/9

= 1.3 pages

Number of pages that can be printed in 1 second = 0.75 page

Number of pages that can be printed in 1 minute =

= 1 minute = 60 seconds

Number of pages that can be printed in 60 seconds =

= 1.3 × 60

= 78 pages

Rounding off 78 , we get 80 .

Therefore , 80 pages can be printed in 1 minute .
