Hello! To answer this question, all you have to do is subtract both numbers from each other. 14.6 - 5.2 is 9.4. The numbers are 9.4 units away from each other on a number line. An expression that would represent a distance between them are 14.6 - 5.2 = x. Just make the negative numbers positive to make it easier to solve.

Answer:

9.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that two integers -14.6 and -5.2

We have to find distance between -14.6 and -5.2.

Difference between =-5.2-(14.6)

Difference=-5.2+14.6=9.4

Distance is the absolute value of 9.4

Therefore,

$\mid 9.4\mid =9.4$

Distance between -14.6 and -5.2 is 9.4

Y=2x-10
Y=4x-8
U substitute it and it turns into 2x-10 =4x-8
U get x=-1
Y=4*(-1)-8
Y=-12
(x,y)= (-1,-12)

What we have been given here are two points.

f(3) = -4 is the same as (3, -4)

f(2) = 6 is the same as (2, 6)

We can then use these two points to find the equation of a line.

Step 1: Find the slope

Slope Formula: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Slope = (6 - - 4) / (2 - 3) = (10) / (-1) = -10

Step 2: Find the y-intercept

To find the y-intercept, we'll take our slope and one of our points and plug them into slope-intercept form, then solve for b.

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Point = (2, 6)

6 = 2(-10) + b

6 = -20 + b

b = 26

Step 3: Create the equation of the line

Now that we have the slope and y-intercept, all that's left to do is plug both of those values into slope-intercept form.

y = -10x + 26

Answer: y = -10x + 26

Hope this helps!

2. The Welcher Adult Intelligence Test Scale is composed of a number of subtests. On one subtest, the raw scores have a mean of

IgorC [24]

Answer:

a) 37.31 b) 42.70 c) 0.57 d) 0.09

Step-by-step explaanation:

We are regarding a normal distribution with a mean of 35 and a standard deviation of 6, i.e., $\mu$ = 35 and $\sigma$ = 6. We know that the probability density function for a normal distribution with a mean of $\mu$ and a standard deviation of $\sigma$ is given by

$f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}\sigma}\exp[-\frac{(x-\mu)^{2}}{2\sigma^{2}}]$

in this case we have

$f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}6}\exp[-\frac{(x-35)^{2}}{2(6^{2})}]$

Let $X$ be the random variable that represents a row score, we find the values we are seeking in the following way

a) we are looking for a number $x_{0}$ such that

$P(X\leq x_{0})$ = $\int\limits^{x_{0}}_{-\infty} {f(x)} \, dx = 0.65$ , this number is $x_{0}$ =37.31

you can find this answer using the R statistical programming languange and the instruction qnorm(0.65, mean = 35, sd = 6)

b) we are looking for a number $x_{1}$ such that

$P(X\leq x_{1})$ = $\int\limits^{x_{1}}_{-\infty} {f(x)} \, dx = 0.9$ , this number is $x_{1}$ =42.70

you can find this answer using the R statistical programming languange and the instruction qnorm(0.9, mean = 35, sd = 6)

c) we find this probability as

$P(28\leq X\leq 38)$ = $\int\limits^{38}_{28} {f(x)} \, dx = 0.57$

you can find this answer using the R statistical programming languange and the instruction pnorm(38, mean = 35, sd = 6) -pnorm(28, mean = 35, sd = 6)

d) we find this probability as

$P(41\leq X\leq 44)$ = $\int\limits^{44}_{41} {f(x)} \, dx = 0.09$

you can find this answer using the R statistical programming languange and the instruction pnorm(44, mean = 35, sd = 6) -pnorm(41, mean = 35, sd = 6)

Figure ABCDE is similer to figure FGHIJ, AB=16, CD=10 and EA=12. What is the measure of HI?

Likurg_2 [28]

The answer would be 10 because if u put abcde over fghij, hi and cd are the same place so its the same answer or a mulitple of 10
