At a community college it is known that the grade point average (gpa) of all students has a distribution which is both mound shaped and symmetric. the mean of the distribution is 2.50 with a standard deviation of 0.5. it has been decided by the faculty senate that all students with gpas in the top 16% will graduate with honors. what is the minimum gpa that qualifies a student to graduate with honors? (hint: you will need to use the empirical rule to answer this question) select one:

3 GPA is the minimum GPA that qualifies a student to graduate with honors.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 2.50

Standard Deviation, σ = 0.5

We are given that the distribution of GPA score is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

We have to find minimum GPA in the top 16% students will graduate with honors.

Thus,

Calculating the corresponding value of z from the normal distribution table, we have,

z = 0.994458

Hence, 3 GPA is the minimum GPA that qualifies a student to graduate with honors.

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
