At a recent job fair, Intel boasted that they paid master's graduates more than 90% of all employers. If we interpret their claim as a percentile, what hourly wage must they offer
employees with master's degrees?

Complete Question

A recent study found that hourly wages earned by employees possessing a master's degree are distributed normally with a mean of $27.50 and standard deviation of $3.50

At a recent job fair, Intel boasted that they paid master's graduates more than 90% of all

employers. If we interpret their claim as a percentile, what hourly wage must they offer employees with master's degrees?

The value is

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that they paid master's graduates more than 90% of all

Generally from the z-table the z-score for 90% is

This z-score can be mathematically represented as

Here x is the hourly wage they offer  employees with master's degrees

substituting  $27.50 for   and   $3.50  for    we have

=>

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)

step-by-step explanation:

120 seems like the most sensible answer.

step-by-step explanation:

if there is only one topping on all caramel apples and there's 120 of them. then all apples should/will be covered in sprinkles. make sense?
