A person must score in the upper 2% of the population on an IQ test to qualify for membership in Mensa, the international high IQ society. If IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. what score must a person have to qualify for Mensa? If required, round your answers to nearest whole number.£

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

130.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean, μ = 100

Standard deviation, σ = 15

To obtain the upper 2% of scores :

We find the Zscore (value) of the upper 2% from the normal probability distribution table ;

Zscore corresponding to the area in the left of (1 - 0.02) = 2.054

Using this with the Zscore formula :

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

2.054 = (x - 100) / 15

2.054 * 15 = x - 100

30.81 = x - 100

30.81 + 100 = x

x = 130.81

Find measure of one exterior angle in each regular polygon

Answers

Answer:

Pentagon = 72°

Octagon = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the measure of one exterior angle in a regular pentagon;

n = number of sides

180 - (180 x n-2/n)

180 - (180 x 5-2/5)

180 - (180 x 3/5)

180 - (540/5)

180 - 108

Exterior angle = 72°

To solve for the measure of one exterior angle in a regular octagon;

n = number of sides

180 - (180 x n-2/n)

180 - (180 x 8-2/8)

180 - (180 x 6/8)

180 - (1080/8)

180 - 135

Exterior angle = 45°

Tính giá trị của I = [tex]\lim_{x \to \infty}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{4^{n} - 5.3^{n} + 1}{2.4^{n} + 2}[/tex])

Answers

I assume you're supposed to find the limit as n approaches infinity, not x.

You have

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{4^n-5.3^n+1}{2.4^n+2} = \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\left(\dfrac4{5.3}\right)^n-\left(\dfrac{5.3}{5.3}\right)^n+\dfrac1{5.3^n}}{\left(\dfrac{2.4}{5.3}\right)^n+\dfrac2{5.3^n}} \\\\ = \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\left(\dfrac4{5.3}\right)^n-1+\dfrac1{5.3^n}}{\left(\dfrac{2.4}{5.3}\right)^n+\dfrac2{5.3^n}}[/tex]

For |x| < 1, we have lim |x|ⁿ = 0 as n goes to infinity. Then each exponential term converges to 0, which leaves us with -1/0. This means the limit is negative infinity.

On the other hand, perhaps you meant to write

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{4^n-5\times3^n+1}{2\times4^n+2}[/tex]

The same algebraic manipulation gives us

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\left(\dfrac44\right)^n-5\left(\dfrac34\right)^n+\dfrac1{4^n}}{2\left(\dfrac44\right)^n+\dfrac2{4^n}} = \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1-5\left(\dfrac34\right)^n+\dfrac1{4^n}}{2+\dfrac2{4^n}}[/tex]

Again the exponential terms converge to 0, but this time we're left with the limit 1/2.

Suppose the width is [tex]x[/tex]. So, height becomes [tex]x+2[/tex]

Area of the painting is [tex]99\ ft^2[/tex]

Area is the product of width and height

[tex]\therefore 99=x(x+2)\\\Rightarrow 99=x^2+2x\\\Rightarrow x^2+2x-99=0\\\Rightarrow x^2+11x-9x-99=0\\\Rightarrow (x+11)(x-9)=0\\\Rightarrow x=-11,9[/tex]

Answers

Given:

The quadratic equation is:

To find:

The solution for the given equation rounded to 2 decimal places.

Solution:

Quadratic formula: If a quadratic equation is [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex], then:

[tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

We have,

[tex]3x^2+x-5=0[/tex]

Here, [tex]a=3,b=1,c=-5[/tex]. Using the quadratic formula, we get

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1\pm \sqrt{1^2-4(3)(-5)}}{2(3)}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1\pm \sqrt{1+60}}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1\pm \sqrt{61}}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1\pm 7.81025}{6}[/tex]

Now,

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1+7.81025}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=1.13504167[/tex]

[tex]x\approx 1.14[/tex]

And

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1-7.81025}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=-1.468375[/tex]

Therefore, the required solutions are 1.14 and -1.47.

[tex]\large\boxed{\text{9 quarters}}[/tex]

We can let x = dimes and y = quarters.

We know that one dime = $0.10 and a quarter = $0.25, so:

$3.05 = $0.10x + $0.25y

And:

17 = x + y

Solve the system of equations. We can rearrange the bottom equation to create an expression equal to y:

17 - x = y

Substitute this into the top equation for y:

3.05 = 0.10x + 0.25(17 - x)

Distribute and simplify:

3.05 = 0.10x + 4.25 - 0.25x

3.05 = 4.25 - 0.15x

Solve for x:

-1.2 = -0.15x

x = 8

Find y using the above expression:

In a survey of women in a certain country the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches answer the followinv questions about the specified normal distribution

Answers

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

In a survey of women in a certain country ( ages 20-29), the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches.  Answer the following questions about the specified normal distribution.  (a) What height represents the 99th percentile?  (b) What height represents the first quartile?  (Round to two decimal places as needed)

Solution :

Let the random variable X represents the height of women in a country.

Given :

X is normal with mean, μ = [tex]62.9[/tex] inches and the standard deviation, σ = [tex]2.81[/tex] inches

Let,

[tex]$Z=\frac{X - 62.9}{2.81}$[/tex] , then Z is a standard normal

a). Let the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile is = a

The point a is such that,

[tex]$P(X<a)=0.99$[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{a-62.9}{2.81} \right) = 0.99$[/tex]

From standard table, we get : [tex]P( Z < 2.3263) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(a-62.9)}{281} = 2.3263$[/tex]

  [tex]$a= (2.3263 \times 2.81 ) +62.9$[/tex]

     = 6.536903 + 62.9

     = 69.436903

     = 69.5 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile = 69.5 inches.

b). Let b = height represents the first quartile.

It is given by :

[tex]P( X < b) =0.25[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81} \right) = 0.25$[/tex]

From the standard normal table,

[tex]P( Z < -0.6745) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81}= 0.6745$[/tex]

[tex]$b=(0.6745 \times 2.81) +62.9$[/tex]

  = 1.895345 + 62.9

   = 64.795345

   = 64.8 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the 1st quartile is 64.8 inches.

The height h, in feet, of a projectile t seconds after launch is modeled by the equation h=32t-16t^2.

Answers

Complete question is;

The height h, in feet, of a projectile t seconds after launch is modeled by the equation h = 32t – 16t². How long after launch does the projectile return to the ground?

Answer:

2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the height function is given by;

h = 32t – 16t²

Now, the velocity will be the derivative of the height equation.

Thus;

v(t) = dh/dt = 32 - 32t

Now, for projectiles, at max height, v = 0.

Thus;

32 - 32t = 0

32t = 32

t = 32/32

t = 1 s

It will take the same time it took to get to Max height as it will to get to ground from that height.

Thus, total height = 1 + 1 = 2 seconds

Look at the graph. The vertex is point (2, -3).

The graph does not go lower than that point.
