We have to define an interval about the mean that contains 75% of the values. This means half of the values will lie above the mean and half of the values lie below the mean.

So, 37.5% of the values will lie above the mean and 37.5% of the values lie below the mean.

In a Z-table, mean is located at the center of the data. So the position of the mean is at 50% of the data. So the position of point 37.5% above the mean will be located at 50 + 37.5 = 87.5% of the overall data

Similarly position of the point 37.5% below the mean will be located at 
50 - 37.5% = 12.5% of the overall data

From the z table, we can find the z value for both these points. 12.5% converted to z score is -1.15 and 87.5% converted to z score is 1.15.

Using these z scores, we can find the values which contain 75% of the values about the mean.

z score of -1.15 means 1.15 standard deviations below the mean. So this value comes out to be:

150 - 1.15(25) = 121.25

z score of 1.15 means 1.15 standard deviations above the mean. So this value comes out to be:

150 + 1.15(25) = 178.75

So, the interval from 121.25 to 178.75 contains the 75% of the data values.

Determine if each function is linear or nonlinear.
kogti [31]
Y=2x^3 is nonlinear, since it's a cube equation. y=x+5 is linear, because it's a line with y intercept (0,-5) and slope 1. y=\sqrt(x-5) is nonlinear, because it's a quadratic equation when reversing x and y. 5x+5y=25 is equal to x+y=5 ot y=-x+5, which is also linear. y=x^2/2 is a quadratic equation, so it's nonlinear.

Solve each system by elemination, 4x+8y=20 and -4x+2y=-30
ludmilkaskok [199]
The sum of the left side of these two equations is equal to the same of the right side is these two equations
4x+8y + (-4x+2y) = 20 + 30
10y =50 ( x is eliminated)
y=5
Take this into the second equation
-4x +2y = 30
-4x + 2*5 = 30
x=-5

So x=-5
y=5

Solve the equation. 9x−(3x+9)=2x−25 Select the correct choice below and fill in any answer boxes in your choice. A. The solution
nataly862011 [7]

Answer: Choice A, x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 9x−(3x+9)=2x−25

2. 9x-3x-9=2x-25

3. 6x-9=2x-25

4. 6x-9=2x-25  

   -2x          -2x

5. 4x-9=-25

       +9    +9

6. 4x=-16 (divide both sides by 4)

7. x=-4
