Is there a difference between the 80th percentile and the top 80%?

<span>Actually, yes there is. Being in the 80th percentile means that you are smart than 80% of the people (i.e. out of 100 people, you would be smarter than 80 of them). However being in the top 80% means that you are a part of the 80 smartest people out that same 100. </span>

Select the correct answer<br> Solve this equation<br> X+4/6x = 1/x
laila [671]

Answer:

A) x = 0, 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 4) / 6x =  1 / x

this is a proportion, so you can cross-multiply and get:

x(x + 4) = 6x

x² + 4x = 6x

x² - 2x = 0

x(x - 2) = 0

x = 0

x - 2 = 0  so, x = 2

Simplify -5x(x - 3y)
jenyasd209 [6]
Start by distributing -5x into x then into -3y. So -5x times x equals -5x^2( -5x squared), then -5 times -3y, equals 15xy so your answer is -5x^2 + 15xy.

yuradex [85]

Answer:

W = 16 in

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2L + 2W

56 = 2(12) + 2W

56 = 24 + 2W

56-24 = 2W

32 = 2W

W = 32/2

W = 16 in

Can someone plz help me
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

x is less than or equal to negative 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

so for now we should pretend that the greater than or equal to is an equal sign, and simplify the problem to get x alone on a side

remove 5 from each side

-x/3=1/3-5

-x/3=14/3

multiply both sides by 3

-x=14

x=-14

so we can now replace the equal sign with the equal or greater to, so x is less than or equal to -14

Suppose that the duration of a particular type of criminal trial is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 22 days and
Alika [10]

Answer:

25.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean number of days (μ) = 22 days

Standard deviation (σ) = 6 days

Z-score for the 72nd percentile (according to tabulated values) = 0.583

The z-score for any number of days, X, is determined by:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

The value of X that is greater than 72% of the trial times is:

0.583=\frac{X-22}{6}\\ X=25.5\ days

Therefore, 72% of all of these types of trials are completed within 25.5 days.
