Answer:

2x-5= -20

move -5 to the other side

sign changes from -5 to 5

2x-5+5= -20+5

2x= -15

divide by 2 for both sides

2x/2= -15/2

cross out 2 and 2, divide by 2 and 2 and then becomes x

x= -15/2

If the distribution is really (5.43,0.54)
defon

Answer:

0.7486 = 74.86% observations would be less than 5.79

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose there was a small typing mistake, so i am going to use the distribution as N (5.43,0.54)

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The general format of the normal distribution is:

N(mean, standard deviation)

Which means that:

\mu = 5.43, \sigma = 0.54

What proportion of observations would be less than 5.79?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5.79. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5.79 - 5.43}{0.54}

Z = 0.67

Z = 0.67 has a pvalue of 0.7486

0.7486 = 74.86% observations would be less than 5.79

Three kids play tennis at the same tennis courts. Mark plays every fourth day, David plays every seventh day and Bryan plays eve

Answer:

Wednesday (9 weeks later) = 10th October.

Step-by-step explanation:

We label the days with the initials of the names.

M= 4

D = 7

B = 6

LCM of 6 +7 = 42

LCM of 6+7 + 4 = 84

We find 84 is the amount of days we need to add on to july 18th

We first find the weeks 84/7 = 9 weeks.

As Wednesday July 18th is exclusive it would be 84 days after this event.

18+ 84 = 102 days.

31 days in july = 31

31 days in Aug = 31

30 days in Sept = 30

= 92

102-92 = 10

We now know date is Wednesday 10th October

We can check 84 days = 9 weeks

13 days in July makes 31st july

31 days in Aug makes 31st Aug

30 days in Sept makes 30th Sept

= 74 days + 10 days = 84

10th October is the checked date and we know it is also a Wednesday as Wednesday had stayed exclusive and prove that there are 7 days in the week to account x 9, to account for an exact 9 weeks later duration.
