Answer:
they give us a sense of where a score falls in relation to the mean of its population (in terms of standard deviation of its population), 2) they allow us to compare scores from different distributions, and 3) they can be transformed into percentiles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b^2-4b+3=0
b²-3x-b+3=0
b(b-3)-1(b-3)=0
(b-3)(b-1)=0
either
b=3 or b=1
.
2n^2 + 7 = -4n + 5
2n²+4n+7-5=0
2n²+4n+2=0
2(n²+2n+1)=0
(n+1)²=0/2
:.n=-1
.
x - 3x^2 = 5+ 2x - x^2
0=5+ 2x - x^2-x +3x^2
0=5+x+2x²
2x²+x+5=0
comparing above equation with ax²+bx +c we get
a=2
b=1
c=5
x={-b±√(b²-4ac)}/2a ={-1±√(1²-4×2×5)}/2×1
={-1±√-39}/2
Answer: (C
Step-by-step explanation: To evaluate this, solve by raising 7 to the power of 3.
7 x 7 x 7
7 x 7 = 49 x 7 = 343
Therefore, the answer is C.
Answer:
x = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.
(2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180
4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify
x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)
x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

<em>Additional comment</em>
A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.
