A teacher gives a test in which the average of the test scores is 68 and the standard deviation is 14. Realizing that the test was probably too difficult, the teacher decides to scale the tests by adding 10 points to all scores. What is the mean and standard deviation of the scaled test scores?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mean = 78 ;

Standard deviation = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean score = 68

Standard deviation = 14

When a constant value is added to the individual value of a dataset, the new mean value will become the sum of the initial mean value and the constant term added to the values.

Constant Added score = 10

The mean of scaled test score will be:

Mean score + constant added score

68 + 10 = 78

The standard deviation remains unchanged ; Hence, standard deviation = 14

Problem Page Suppose we want to choose 2 letters, without replacement, from the 4 letters A, B, C, and D.

Answers

Note: Consider we need to find the possible number of ways to choose 2 letters, without replacement, from the 4 letters A, B, C, and D.

Given:

Number of letters = 4

Number of letters selected without replacement = 2

To find:

The total possible number of ways.

Solution:

We have 4 letters A, B, C and D.

So, the number of ways to select first letter is 4.

After selecting a letter the number of remaining letters is 3.

So, the number of ways to select second letter is 3.

Now, the total number of ways to select 2 letters, without replacement, from the 4 letters A, B, C, and D is:

[tex]4\times 3=12[/tex]

Therefore, the required number of ways is 12.

Find the 69th term of the arithmetic sequence -13, -33, -53, ...​

Answers

Answer:

-1,373

Step-by-step explanation:

a69 = -13 + (69-1)(-20)

= -13+(68)(-20)

= -13 - 1,360

= -1,373

Answer:

-1373

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN :-

A.P. = -13 , -33 , -53 , ...

TO FIND :-

69th term of A.P.

FACTS TO KNOW BEFORE SOLVING :-

Lets say there's an A.P. whose :-

First term = aCommon Difference = dTotal number of terms = nnth term = aⁿ

Formula for finding nth term of A.P. = aⁿ = a + (n - 1)d

SOLUTION :-

According to the question ,

First term = -13Common difference = -33 - (-13) = -20Number of terms needed to find = 69

By using the formula for finding nth term ,

69th term of A.P. = -13 + (69 - 1)×(-20) = -13 + (-1360) = -1373

PLEASE HELP

Answers

Answer:

101°

46°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angle C and angle F should be 180°as they are parallel.

Hence, angle C ;

Angle C + angle F = 180°

Angle C + 79° = 180°

Angle C = 180° - 79°

Angle C = 101°

Sum of angle in Trapezoid = 360°

Hence,

C + D + E + F = 360°

101° + 134° + E + 79° = 360°

314° + E = 360°

E = (360 - 314)°

E = 46°

The statement that best describes how the screen size changed between 2005 and 2011 is: A) The company increases the screen size by 0.5 inch every year.

Screen size changed between 2005 and 2011

Given:

2005= 15.5 inches

2011=18.5 inches

Hence:

2005-2011= 6 years

18.5 inches-15.5 inches=3 inches

Size of screen:

Size of screen=3/6

Size of screen=0.5 increase every year

(i)the capacity of the tin


(ii)the volume of the cake mixture in the tin in cm^3

(iii)volume of the space unoccupied by the cake in cm^3

Answers

Answer:

(a) V = 51200 cubic cm

(b) V' = 38912 cubic cm

(c) V'' = V - V' = 12288 cubic cm

Step-by-step explanation:

side of the square base, s = 32 cm

height, h = 50 cm

height of cake mixture, h' = 38 cm

(a) The capacity of the tin is the volume.  

Capacity of tin, V =  s x s x h = 32 x 32 x 50 = 51200 cubic cm

(b) The volume of the cake mixture is

V' =  s x s x h'

V' = 32 x 32 x 38 = 38912 cubic cm

(c) Volume of unoccupied space is

V'' = V - V' = 51200 - 38912 = 12288 cubic cm

Your answer:

Answers

Answer:

(6,21)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

y = 2x + 9 .....(1)

y = 4x − 3 .....(2)

From equations (1) and (2),

2x + 9 = 4x − 3

Taking variables both sides and constants to another side.

9+3 = 4x-2x

12 = 2x

x = 6

Put the value of x in equation (1).

y = 2(6) + 9

y = 12 + 9

y = 21

The solution of the given equations is x = 6 and y = 21. If we graph them, they will intersect at (6,21).
