Answer:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
4(x−7)=2(x+3)
Simplify both sides of the equation.
4(x−7)=2(x+3)
4x+−28=2x+6
4x−28=2x+6
Subtract 2x from both sides.
4x−28−2x=2x+6−2x
x−28=6
Add 28 to both sides.
2x−28+28=6+28
2x=34
Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2 = 34/2
x = 17
Answer: 100
5
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The mean of a normal distribution is also the median. Half the population will have values above the mean. Half of 200 is 100, so ...
... 100 students will have grades above 70%.
b) 84% is 14% above the mean. Each 7% is 1 standard deviation, so 14% is 2 standard deviations above the mean. The empirical rule tells you 95% of the population is within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so about 5% of students (10 students) got grades higher than 84% or lower than 56%. The normal distribution is symmetrical, so we expect about 5 students in each range.
... about 5 students will have grades above 84%.
X, y - the numbers
The product is 18.
The quotient is 2.
Substitute 2y for x in the 1st equation:
The numbers are
6 and 3 or
-6 and -3.
