O model the problem containing an unknown number, translate the statement into an equation. Sixteen is five less than a number. Which steps would you take to translate the statement? Replace "is" with =, "less than" with –, and "a number" with n to get 16 = 5 – n. Replace "is" with =, "less than" with +, and "a number" with n to get 16 = n + 5. Replace "is" with =, "less than" with –, and "a number" with n to get 16 = n – 5. Replace "is" with =, "less than" with ÷, and "a number" with n to get 16 = 5 ÷ n.

The probability that a tutor will see 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 students is given below determine the probability distribution's missing value.

There are two major tests of readiness for college: the act and the sat. act scores are reported on a scale from 1 to 36. the distribution of act scores in recent years has been roughly normal with mean µ = 20.9 and standard deviation s = 4.8. sat scores are reported on a scale from 400 to 1600. sat scores have been roughly normal with mean µ = 1026 and standard deviation s = 209. reports on a student's act or sat usually give the percentile as well as the actual score. the percentile is just the cumulative proportion stated as a percent: the percent of all scores that were lower than this one. tanya scores 1260 on the sat. what is her percentile (± 1)?

The coverage of a base station of a telecommunication company forms a disk with a radius of (kilometers). let be the distance of a cellphone from a base station. assume that the location of cellphones in use are randomly uniformly distributed within the disk. calculate the mean and variance for the random variable.
