A philosophy professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 14% of scores B: Scores below the top 14% and above the bottom 60% C: Scores below the top 40% and above the bottom 18% D: Scores below the top 82% and above the bottom 8% F: Bottom 8% of scores Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 76.9 and a standard deviation of 7.4. Find the minimum score required for an A grade. Round your answer to the nearest whole number, if necessary.

The minimum score required for an A grade is 85.

Step-by-step explanation:

The grade distribution on a test is:

Grade                Criteria

  A                     Top 14%

  B          < Top 14% - > Bottom 60%

  C          < Top 40% - > Bottom 18%

  D          < Top 82% - > Bottom 8%

  F                    Bottom 8%

Le the random variable X  denote the scores on the test.

The random variable X is normally distributed with parameters μ = 76.9 and standard deviation, σ = 7.4.

To compute the probability of a normally distributed random variable we first need to convert the raw scores to the z-scores.

The distribution of these z-scores are known as the standard normal distribution, i.e. Z follows N (0, 1).

Now it is provided that a student has to score in the top 14% to receive a grade A.

That is, P (X > x) = 0.14.

⇒ P (X < x) = 1 - 0.14

                  = 0.86

⇒ P (Z < z) = 0.86

The value of z for this probability is:

z = 1.08.

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Compute the value of x as follows:

Thus, the minimum score required for an A grade is 85.

answer: what equations are there

step-by-step explanation:

a net is a diagram that shows a “flattened” view of a solid. in a net, each face and base is shown with all of its dimensions. a net can also serve as a pattern to build a three-dimensional solid.

a pyramid is a three-dimensional object with a base that is a polygon and triangular faces that meet at one vertex.

" the net of a triangular pyramid consists of four triangles. the base here we are given of the pyramid is a equilateral   triangle, and the lateral faces are also triangles "
