Answer:

C )  For this​ problem, the mean value of 283 represents the average test score on a mathematics assessment test for​ eighth-graders.

Step-by-step explanation:

10 th  percentile of 232

10 % below 232 and 90 % above 232

25 th percentile of 255

25 % below 255 and 75 % above 255

75 th percentile of 304

75 % below 304 and 25% above 304

90 th percentile of 327

90 % below 327 and 10 % above 327 .

So counting is from below to above in ascending order .

the mean of 283 represents the average of the test score

Hence option C ) is correct .

A paintball court charges an initial entrance fee plus a fixed price per ball.
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer : The cost of 10 balls will be, 13.5 dollars

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given the following expression:

P=0.80\times n+5.50

where,

P = total price (in dollars)

n = number of balls used

Given:

n = number of balls used = 10

Now we have to determine the cost of 10 balls.

P=0.80\times n+5.50

P=0.80\times (10)+5.50

P=8+5.50

P=13.5\$

Thus, the cost of 10 balls will be, 13.5 dollars

Find the equation of the line tangent to y = 2x2 – x + 4 at x = 3.
Alexxandr [17]
Y=2x²-x+4

1) we have to find the slope of this line.
we have to calculate the first derivative of this function.
y´=4x-1

The slope in x=3 will be: m(3)=4(3)-1=12-1=11.

2)We have to find a point of this line:
if x=3; ⇒y=2(3)²-3+4=18-3+4=19; Our point will be (3,19)

2) point-slope form: we need a point (x₀,y₀) and the slope.
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
We know the slope (m=11) and the point (3,19); therefore:
y-19=11(x-3)
y=11x-33+19
y=11x-14

Answer: A. y=11x-14

Find the value of z.
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

  z = 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles z and the one marked 70° form an linear pair, hence are supplementary.

  z = 180° -70° = 110°

<h3>Angles where chords cross</h3>

The angle made by two chords is half the sum of the arcs intercepted by those chords. Here, that means ...

  70° = 1/2(60° +x)   ⇒   x = 140° -60° = 80°

The arc w completes the circle of 360°, so we have ...

  w +x +79° +60° = 360°   ⇒   w = 360° -219° = 141°

Finally, z is the average of w and 79°:

  z = (w +79°)/2 = (141° +79°)/2 = 110° . . . as above
