on the number line, bear in mind that, on the positive side, the closer to 0, the smaller, so +3 is smaller than +10. However on the negative side, the closer to 0, the larger, so the farther from 0 the number is, is much smaller, thus -1,000,000 is a tiny number compared to -1, because -1 is closer to 0 thus is larger.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:800

Step-by-step explanation:

$Mean(\mu )=\$ 4300$

and $P(X>6140)=0.0107$

$P(X>x_0)=0.0107$

$P\left ( \frac{X-\mu }{\sigma}$

$P\left ( z$

$\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma}=InvNormal(0.9893)$

Using Z table to get InvNormal(0.9893)=2.30

$\frac{6140-4300}{\sigma}=2.30$

$\sigma =\frac{6140-4300}{2.30}=800$

Answer:

ctto JBarnum

Step-by-step explanation:

P+11=(1/2)(P-13)^2

P+11=(1/2)(P^2-26p+169)

2(P+11)=(1/2)(2)(P^2-26p+169)

2P+22=P^2-26p+169

0=P^2-28p+147 ( -7 and -21)

(P-7)(P-21)=0

P=7,21 (cant be 7 as 13 years from 7 is negative so peter is 21)

checking:

21+11=32

32=(1/2)(21-13)^2

32=(1/2)(8)^2

32=(1/2)64

32=32

correct

What is the vertex of this equation?

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

(5, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be written in vertex form by adding and subtracting 25:

y = -(x^2 -10x +25) -21 +25

y = -(x -5)^2 +4

Then the vertex can be identified as (5, 4).
