Suppose the average player in the NBA is 78 inches tall with
a standard deviation of 2.7 inches, while the average player 10 points
in the WNBA is 69 inches tall, with a standard deviation of 3.2 inches. Who is
relatively taller based on their comparison to their profession, Lebron James
(NBA) at 81 inches or Candace Parker (WNBA) at 76 inches?
A. O LeBron is relatively taller because he has a larger Z-score.
B. O LeBron is relatively taller because he has a smaller z-score.
a
c. O Candace is relatively taller because she has a larger Z-score.
D. O Candace is relatively taller because she has a smaller Z-score.
Using z-scores, it is found that the correct option is:
c. Candace is relatively taller because she has a larger Z-score.
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.For the z-score of Lebron's height, we have that: [tex]X = 81, \mu = 78, \sigma = 2.7[/tex], hence:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{81 - 78}{2.7}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.11[/tex]
For the z-score of Candace's height, we have that: [tex]X = 76, \mu = 69, \sigma = 3.2[/tex], hence:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{76 - 69}{3.2}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.19[/tex]
Due to the higher z-score, Candace is relatively taller, hence option c is correct.

A bag contains 6 red tiles and 15 yellow tiles. Lilia removes 2 red tiles. How many
yellow tiles should she remove so that the ratio of red tiles to yellow tiles in the
bag stays equivalent to 6:15? Show your work.
Answer:
I would remove 5 yellow tiles.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the beginning ratio was 6:15, I would start by finding the ratio of 1 red tile to ? yellow tiles. By multiplying 1 by 15, giving you 15, and dividing 15 by 6, I would find out that 1 red tile is equal to 2.5 yellow tiles. I would then set up an equation so there is 1/2.5 = 4/?, the 4 being the remaining red tiles after removing 2. I would then find the yellow tiles by multiplying whatever number the 1st numerator can be multiplied by to equal the 2nd numerator. Basically, I know that 1 multiplied by 4 is equal to 4, so I would multiply 2.5 by 4, which is equal to 10. Now that I know 4 red tiles is equal to 10 yellow tiles, I would remove 5 tiles to keep the ratio equivalent to 6:15

there is no mathematical problem to solve.
just follow the instructions as given.
this is an exercise for you to get a feeling about what is what. it is imperative that you do it.
there is really nothing to solve.
remember, that a positive slope means the line goes up (from left to right), and a negative slope means the line goes down (again from left to right).
and I am sure you know what vertical and horizontal means.

The youth group is going on a trip to the state fair. The trip costs $64. Included in that price is $12 for a concert ticket and the cost of 2 passes, one for the rides and one for the game booths. Each of the passes costs the same price. Write an equation representing the cost of the trip, and determine the price of one pass. Solve your equation by showing your work and steps.
Answer:
12+26x=64
Step-by-step explanation:
64-12=52
52/2=26
$26 per pass
equation 12+26x=64
x=2 in this case x is representing the number of passes
12 is the ticket
and 64 is total cost

Find the value of sin D rounded to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.
Answer:
0.22
Step-by-step explanation:
So in this problem, we have to find the hypotenuse first, since sine is opposite over hypotenuse.
We can do this using the pythagorean theorem (you can search it if you don't know). Or, we can just remember this as one of our pythagorean triplets (9,40,41). The last side will be 41.
We have to find the value of sin(D)
opposite/hypotenuse = 9/41 = 0.2195 which is about 0.22

The dimensions of a rectangular garden is 3 m by 10 m. When both dimensions are increased by equal amounts, the area of the garden doubles. What are the dimensions of the new garden?
Answer:
5 by 12 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The area for rectangle is LxW
The original area is 3*10, or 30 meters.
When both dimensions are increased, now the area is 60.
We can now inch up slowly to see what works:
3.5 and 10.5=36.75 X
4 and 11=40 X
5 and 12=60 YES!
The new dimensions of the garden are 5 m by 12 m, increased by 2, and the new area is 60 meters^2.

The value of a newly purchased computer will decrease over time. The value of the computer can be modeled by the following function:
f(t)=200+1,200(0.73)2t,
where t is measured in years since the computer was purchased.
Use the drop-down menus to complete the explanation of how the function models the computer's value over time.
Answer:
$14000200Step-by-step explanation:
a)Substitute 0 for t and evaluate the expression. Recognize that any value to the zero power is 1.
f(0) = 200 +1200(0.73^(2·0)) = 200 +1200·1
f(0) = 1400
When t=0, the value of the computer is 1400 dollars.
__
b)The exponential expression 1200(0.73^(2t)) has a horizontal asymptote of 0. It gets closer and closer to 0.
__
c)The exponential term gets closer to 0, so the function value gets closer to ...
f(∞) ≈ 200 +0 ≈ 200
f(t) gets closer and closer to 200.
Answer:
1) 1,400
2) 0
3) 200

What property is used to rewrite (x + 2)(y + z) as y (x + 2) + z (x + 2)
Answer:
Distributive Property
Step-by-step explanation (if you were to show the steps):
(x+2)(y+z) (first expression)
xy + xz + 2y + 2z (Distributive Property of Multiplication)
yx + 2y + zx + 2z (use the Commutative Property of Addition and Commutative Property of Multiplication to group xy (also known as yx) and 2y together, and to group xz (also known as zx) and 2z together)
y(x + 2) + z(x + 2) (use factoring to get the rewritten expression at the end)
