The Z-score is calculated by the formula below

\begin{gathered} z-score=\frac{(x-\mu)}{\sigma}_{} \\ \mu=\operatorname{mean} \\ \sigma=s\tan dard\text{ deviation} \\ x=\text{score} \end{gathered}

Step 2: Substitute the given parameters in the formula

\begin{gathered} z-\text{score}=\frac{145-165}{40} \\ Z=-\frac{20}{40} \\ Z=-\frac{1}{2} \\ Z=-0.5 \end{gathered}

Hence, the z-score of a person who scored 145 on the exam is -0.5

3x-7y=2 solve for x. Can you show how you do it?
9966 [12]
1)  3x-7y=2
2)  If you're solving for x, you want to isolate it, so move the -7y to the right:
          3x = 7y + 2
3)  Now, to get x by itself, you divide both sides by 3
          3x/3 = (7y + 2)/3
4)  You get:
           x = 7/3y + 2/3

PLEASE HELP!!!!
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for binomial distribution which is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × p^r × q^(n - r)

Where

x represent the number of successes.

p represents the probability of success.

q = (1 - r) represents the probability of failure.

n represents the number of trials or sample.

From the information given,

p = 18% = 18/100 = 0.18

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.18

q = 0.82

n = 5

Therefore,

P(x ≤ 2) = p(x = 0) + p(x = 1) + p(x = 2)

P(x = 0) = 5C0 × 0.18^0 × 0.82^(5 - 0)

P(x = 0) = 0.37

P(x = 1) = 5C1 × 0.18^1 × 0.82^(5 - 1)

P(x = 1) = 0.41

P(x = 2) = 5C2 × 0.18^2 × 0.82^(5 - 2)

P(x = 2) = 0.18

Therefore,

P(x ≤ 2) = 0.37 + 0.41 + 0.18 = 0.96
