Answer:

Z = 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle Z=\frac{\text{Observed Value}-\text{Mean of the Sample}}{\text{Standard Deviation of the Sample}}\\\\Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\ \\Z=\frac{87-82}{4}\\ \\Z=\frac{5}{4}\\ \\Z=1.25

Hence, Michael's z-score is 1.25, which means that he scored 1.25 standard deviations above the class average.

If y=3x+1 were changed to y=x+1 how would the graph of the new function compare with the original?
Olegator [25]
F(x)=3x+1  (preimage)
g(x)=x+1  (image)
it is undergoing a reduction/compression with translation.
In general, a linear transformation is
g(x) = a*f(bx-h)+k
h=horizontal translation (right if h>0, left if h<0, note formula has minus sign)
k=vertical translation (up if k>0, down if k<0)
a=vertical stretching, (stretching if |a|>1, compression if |a|<1, also, if a<0, a reflection across the x-axis is performed)
b=horizontal stretching (|b|>0 compression, |b|<0 stretching, also, if b<0, a reflection across the y-axis is performed)

In this case, 
g(x)=f(x/3), so it is a horizontal stretching.
Note that the y-intercept remains unchanged.

Assume that y varies directly with x. If y = -5 when
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Thus, the value of x = -36 when y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if y varies directly with x, we can express the relationship such as

y ∝ x

y = kx

k = y/x

where 'k' is called constant of variation.

Given

y = -5

x = 12

Using the equation

k = y/x = -5/12

Thus, the value of k = -5/12

Finding x when y = 15

y = 15

k = -5/12

substituting y = 15 and k = -5/12 in the equation

y = kx

15 = -5/12 (x)

15×12 = -5x

180 = -5x

divding both sides by -5

-5x/-5 = 180/-5

x = -36

Thus, the value of x = -36 when y = 15

Solve 3x + 23 + x = 7. x = −4 x = 4 x = −0.25 x = 0.25
Maksim231197 [3]
<h2>______________________________</h2><h2>Solve for x | Solution and Explanation </h2>

______________________________________________

Hello! So...

We are given the following:

Solve for x.

3x+23+x=7

====================

1. Group the like terms.

  • 3x+x+23=7

====================

2. Add similar elements (3x+x=4x).

  • 4x+23=7

====================

3. Subtract 23 from both sides.

  • 4x + 23 - 23 = 7 - 23

====================

4. Simplify.

  • 4x=-16

====================

5. Divide both sides by 4.

  • \frac{4x}{4} =\frac{-16}{4}

====================

6. Simplify.

  • x=-4 (aka. Option A)

====================

Hope this helps!

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

3 pieces each 1 dekameter long

1 dekameter = 10 meters

Convert dekameters to meters

3 pieces each 10 meters long

Multiply

Glenn has 30 meters of lanyard

Divide

He can cut 30 1-meter pieces

Hope this helps :)
