Y+ 1/2 =-3/4 How would you do this one

2 answers:

7 0

For this math problem, you need to follow a few steps to solve for Y:

We need to isolate Y on to one side of the equation. Since we are adding 1/2 to Y, we would do the opposite-subtract 1/2-from both sides of the equation, in order to isolate and solve for Y.

We end up with this equation:

Y = -3/4 - 1/2. Convert 1/2 to 2/4ths, then do your math to solve for Y

$y+\frac{1}{2}=-\frac{3}{4}\ \ \ |Add\ \frac{1}{2}\ to\ each\ side\\\\
y=-\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{2} \ \ \ |Make\ a common\ denominator\\\\
y=-\frac{3}{4}-\frac{2}{4}\\\\
y=-\frac{5}{4}=-1\frac{1}{4}\\\\
y=-1\frac{1}{4}$

A college football coach has decided to recruit only the heaviest 15% of high school football players. He knows that high school

Alla [95]

Answer:

The coach should start recruiting players with weight 269.55 pounds or more.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 225 pounds

Standard Deviation, σ = 43 pounds

We are given that the distribution of weights is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.15

$P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43})=0.15$

$= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43})=0.15$

$=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43})=0.85$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z < 1.036) = 0.85$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43} = 1.036\\\\x = 269.548 \approx 269.55$

Thus, the coach should start recruiting players with weight 269.55 pounds or more.

ser-zykov [4K]

F(x) = 2x² + 7x - 5
g(x) = -8x² - 3x + 5
g(x) + f(x) = -8x² - 3x + 5 + 2x² + 7x - 5 = - 6x² + 4x

Answer: -6x² + 4x
