A supervisor finds the mean number of miles that the employees in a department live from work. Which mileage is within a z-score of 1.5? A. 21 miles B. 24 miles C. 36 miles D. 41 miles

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The z-score tells you how many standard deviations from the mean.

1.5 * 3.6 = 5.4 miles

So anything within 5.4 miles of the average (29).

The range would be:
29 - 5.4 = 23.6
to:
29 + 5.4 = 34.4

23.6 ≤ x ≤ 34.4

Answer:
B) 24 miles

Answer 2

Answer:

The mileage is within a z-score of 1.5 is (b) 24 miles

How to determine the mileage?

From the complete question, we have the following parameters:

Standard deviation = 3.6

Mean = 18.6

z = 1.5

The z-score is calculated using:

$z= (x - \mu)/(\sigma)$

So, we have:

$1.5= (x - \mu)/(\sigma)$

Cross multiply

$x - \mu= 1.5\sigma$

Make x the subject

$x = 1.5\sigma + \mu$

Substitute known values

$x = 1.5 * 3.6 + 18.6$

Evaluate

x = 24

Hence, the mileage is within a z-score of 1.5 is (b) 24 miles

2/8. 2/8 can be simplified to 1/4 if you divide by 2 in both the numerator and the denominator. Draw two pies. Make one pie cut into 8 even pieces and one cut into 4. Shade in two of the slices on the pie with 8 pieces (side by side) and shade in one on the pie that's cut into four slices (in the same spot as on the other pie). You should see how you shaded the same total area of each pie.

just convert what the person above said but into decimals

Answer:

1/4, 3 3/4, 5 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for a[n-1], we get ...

a[n-1] = n^2 -a[n]

Then ...

a[4] = 5^2 -a[5] = 25 -14 1/4 = 10 3/4

a[3] = 4^2 -a[4] = 16 -10 3/4 = 5 1/4

a[2] = 3^2 -a[3] = 9 -5 1/4 = 3 3/4

a[1] = 2^2 -a[2] = 4 -3 3/4 = 1/4

Then the first three terms are a[1], a[2], and a[3]:

1/4, 3 3/4, 5 1/4
