A man 6 feet tall walks at a rate of 7 feet per second away from a light that is 15 feet above the ground (see figure). 16 12 8 + 12 16 20 4. 8. (a) When he is 10 feet from the base of the light, at what rate is the tip of his shadow moving? ft/sec (b) When he is 10 feet from the base of the light, at what rate is the length of his shadow changing? ft/sec
Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.
