with the equation of the slope for two points given, m=Y2-Y1/ X2-X1, you can obtain the slope , x1= 3, y1 = -1 , x2= -1, y2= 2
m = 2-(-1)/ -1-3 ⇒ m= 3/-4, m = -3/4, therefore the slope is - 3/4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the results for the standardized test are normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = test reults
µ = mean score
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 1700 points
σ = 75 points
We want to the probability that a student will score more than 1700 points. This is expressed as
P(x > 1700) = 1 - P(x ≤ 1700)
For x = 1700,
z = (1700 - 1700)/75 = 0/75 = 0
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.5
P(x > 1700) = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5
Answer:
A committee of 3 members for the education board is to be selected from a pool of 6 prospective candidates – C, D, E, F, G, and H. Candidates C, D and E are male and the rest are females. At least, one of the selected candidates should have a minimum of 10 years cognate experience in the education sector. The committee should have at least one male and a female candidate. Each of the committee members should have studied a different course for a bachelor’s degree.
Which committee would most likely be selected?
Answer:
A.) 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Since DB =36, and AC is the same line, then AC = 36. The new equation is 36 = 3x - 3. Do inverse operation. Add 3 to both sides of the equation: 36+3=39 & -3+3=0. New equation is 39=3x. Finally divide. 39/3= 13.
Answer:
x = - 2, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given f(x) = 18 we require to solve
3 | x - 2 | + 6 = 18 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
3 | x - 2 | = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
| x - 2 | = 4
The absolute value function always returns a positive value, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, thus
x - 2 = 4 ( add 2 to both sides )
x = 6
OR
- (x - 2) = 4
- x + 2 = 4 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
- x = 2 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = - 2
As a check substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions
x = 6 → 3|6 - 2| + 6 = 3|4| + 6 = 3(4) + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 ← True
x = - 2 → 3|- 2 - 2| + 6 = 3|-4| + 6 = 3(4) + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 ← True
Hence solutions are x = - 2, x = 6
