3a. The average for the statistics exam was 75 and the standard deviation was 8. Andrey was told by the instructor that she scored 1.5 standard deviations below
the mean. What was Andrey's exam score?

63

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to when given the number of standard deviations below the mean x =μ - nσ

Where:

x = raw score

μ is the population mean = 75

σ is the population standard deviation = 8.

n = number of standard deviations below the mean

Hence

x = 75 - 1.5 × 8

x = 75 - 12

x = 63

Therefore, Andrey's exam score is 63

yeah and the opposite of cheating is studying ( you should try it some time)

step-by-step explanation:

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
