The z-score associated with 14.3 is 0.84.  0.2995 of the population is between 12.2 and 14.3.  0.1894 of the population is less than 10.0.

The formula for a z-score is

z=(X-μ)/σ

With our data, we have:
z=(14.3-12.2)/2.5=0.84

The z-score associated with the mean is 0.5.  To find the proportion of the population between the mean and 14.3, subtract 0.7995 (the proportion of population below the z-score of 0.84, using http://www.z-table.com) and 0.5:

0.7995 - 0.5 = 0.2995.

The z-score for 10.0 is

(10.0-12.2)/2.5 = -0.88.  The proportion of the population less than this is 0.1894.

Which fraction is equal to k in the equation below? <br>1\3 / 2= k
Nitella [24]

Answer:

0_10 =0_2

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the following to base 2:

0_10

Hint: | Starting with zero, raise 2 to increasingly larger integer powers until the result exceeds 0.

Determine the powers of 2 that will be used as the places of the digits in the base-2 representation of 0:

Power | \!\(\*SuperscriptBox[\(Base\), \(Power\)]\) | Place value

0 | 2^0 | 1

Hint: | The powers of 2 (in ascending order) are associated with the places from right to left.

Label each place of the base-2 representation of 0 with the appropriate power of 2:

Place | | | 2^0 |  

| | | ↓ |  

0_10 | = | ( | __ | )_(_2)

Hint: | Divide 0 by 2 and find the remainder. The remainder is the first digit.

Determine the value of 0 in base 2:

0/2=0 with remainder 0

Place | | | 2^0 |  

| | | ↓ |  

0_10 | = | ( | 0 | )_(_2)

Hint: | Express 0_10 in base 2.

The number 0_10 is equivalent to 0_2 in base 2.

Answer: 0_10 =0_2

Write an equation of a line that is parallel to y = 3x – 5 and goes through the point (3, 1).
scoray [572]
Paralell means has same lsope
y=mx+b
m=slope

given
y=3x-5
slope=3

y=3x+b
find b
(3,1)
x=3
y=1
sub and find b

1=3(3)+b
1=9+b
minus 9 both sides
-8=b

y=3x-8 is equation

Select True or False for each statement.
mote1985 [20]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

For a real number a, a + 0 = a.  TRUE

For a real number a, a + (-a) = 1.  FALSE

For a real numbers a and b, | a - b | = | b - a |.  TRUE

For real numbers a, b, and c, a + (b ∙ c) = (a + b)(a + c).  FALSE

For rational numbers a and b when b ≠ 0, is always a rational number. TRUE

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

  • <u>For a real number a, a + 0 = a.  </u><u>TRUE</u>

This comes from the identity property for addition that tells us that<em> zero added to any number is the number itself. </em>So the number in this case is a, so it is true that:

a+0=a

  • For a real number a, a + (-a) = 1.  FALSE

This is false, because:

a+(-a)=a-a=0

For any number a there exists a number -a such that a+(-a)=0

  • For a real numbers a and b, | a - b | = | b - a |.  TRUE

This is a property of absolute value. The absolute value means remove the negative for the number, so it is true that:

\mid a-b \mid= \mid b-a \mid

  • For real numbers a, b, and c, a + (b ∙ c) = (a + b)(a + c).  FALSE

This is false. By using distributive property we get that:

(a + b)(a + c)=a^2+ac+ab+bc \\ \\ a^2+ab+ac+bc \neq a+(b.c)

  • For rational numbers a and b when b ≠ 0, is always a rational number. TRUE

A rational number is a number made by two integers and written in the form:

\frac{u}{v} \\ \\ v \neq 0

Given that a \ and \ b are rational, then the result of dividing them is also a rational number.
