First, get common denominators
At the same time, turn these into mixed numbers
27/8 + x = 44/8
Subtract 27/8 from both sides
x = 2 1/8 pounds
Let’s x be how many more pounds the baby needs

Suppose a normal distribution has a mean of 266 and a standard deviation of
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

P(x>278) is 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a normal distribution has a mean of 266 and a standard deviation of  12.

Mean = \mu =266

Standard deviation =\sigma = 12

We are supposed to find P(x > 278)

So, Formula : Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Z=\frac{278-266}{12}

Z=1

Refer the z table for p value

p value = 0.8413

P(x<278) is 0.84

P(x>278)=1-P(x<278)=1-0.84=0.16

Option A is true

Hence P(x>278) is 0.16

Find the equation of the exponential function represented by the table below:
UNO [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If this is an exponential function, it is of the form

y=a(b)^x  where x and y are coordinates from your table, a is the intial value, and b is the growth/decay rate.  To find out what the equation is that represents this data, choose 2 points and solve first for a and then for b.  Just a hint:  If at all possible, choose the coordinate that gives you an x of 0.  You'll see why in a minute.  

I chose the first 2 points from your table: (0, .2) and (1, .8).  Solving first for a:

.2=a(b)^0  The reason to choose the x of 0 as one of your points is because anything raised to the power of 0 is 1.  So our equation then becomes:

.2=a(1) so

a = .2   Easy enough.  

Now use that value along with the other coordinate to solve for b:

.8=.2(b)^1  b to the first is just b, so,

.8 = .2b

Divide both sides by .2 and you'll get that

b = 4

The equation, then, is

y=.2(4)^x which is growth, since the value for b is greater than 1.

Find the coordinates of quadrilateral PQRS with vertices P(1, 4), Q(-1, 4), R(-2, -4) and S(2, -4) under the translation (x,y)--
Georgia [21]
We apply the rule to each of the vertices:
 (x, y) ---> (x-5, y + 3)
 P (1,4) ---> (1-5,4 + 3) >> (-4, 7)
 Q (-1,4) ---> (-1-5,4 + 3) >> (-6, 7)
 R (-2, -4) ---> (-2-5, -4 + 3) >> (- 7, -1)
 S (2, -4) ---> (2-5, -4 + 3) >> (-3, -1)
 Answer:
<span> a.
 P’(-4, 7), Q’(-6, 7) , R’(-7, -1) and S’(-3, -1)</span>
