You scored an 85 on a test. This corresponds to a z-score of 1.80. What percentage of the scores are better than yours?

At a z-score of 1.80, the percentage of the scores that are better than yours is equal to 3.59%.

<h3>What is a z-score?</h3>

In Mathematics, a z-score is sometimes referred to as a z-value or standard score and it can be defined as a measure of the distance between a raw score and the mean, when standard deviation units are used.

<h3>How to determine the percentage?</h3>

Mathematically, the z-score of a given sample score in a normal distribution can be calculated by using this formula:

Z-score = (x - μ)/σ

Where:

  • x represents the sample score.
  • σ represents the standard deviation.
  • μ represents the mean score.

Since a score of 85 on a test corresponds to a z-score of 1.80, the percentage of the scores that are better than yours is given by:

P(x > 85) = P(z > 1.80)

P(z > 1.80) = 0.0359

P(z > 1.80) = 3.59%.

Answer:

Ok, we have a system of equations:

6*x + 3*y = 6*x*y

2*x + 4*y = 5*x*y

First, we want to isolate one of the variables,

As we have almost the same expression (x*y) in the right side of both equations, we can see the quotient between the two equations:

(6*x + 3*y)/(2*x + 4*y) = 6/5

now we isolate one off the variables:

6*x + 3*y = (6/5)*(2*x + 4*y) =  (12/5)*x + (24/5)*y

x*(6 - 12/5) = y*(24/5  - 3)

x = y*(24/5 - 3)/(6 - 12/5) = 0.5*y

Now we can replace it in the first equation:

6*x + 3*y = 6*x*y

6*(0.5*y) + 3*y = 6*(0.5*y)*y

3*y + 3*y = 3*y^2

3*y^2 - 6*y = 0

Now we can find the solutions of that quadratic equation as:

y = \frac{6 +- \sqrt{(-6)^2 - 4*3*0} }{2*3} = \frac{6 +- 6}{6}

So we have two solutions

y = 0

y = 2.

Suppose that we select the solution y = 0

Then, using one of the equations we can find the value of x:

2*x + 4*0 = 5*x*0

2*x = 0

x = 0

(0, 0) is a solution

if we select the other solution, y = 2.

2*x + 4*2 = 5*x*2

2*x + 8 = 10*x

8 = (10 - 2)*x = 8x

x = 1.

(1, 2) is other solution

adrian began riding his scooter at 7:00am. He stopped riding it at 8:10am. How long did adrian ride his scooter for?​
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Adrian rode his scooter for a total of 70 minutes, or an hour and ten minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 60 minutes in an hour, so if Adrian started riding his scooter at 7:00AM, to get to 8:10AM he needs to add 70.  Again, since there are 60 minutes in an hour, 70 minutes converts to one hour and 10 minutes.  Adrian rode his scooter for 70 minutes, or an hour and ten minutes.

7:00 + :70 = 8:10
