12 because you said 8+4 and it equal to 12 that how I got my answer or you can draw a model to.
Answer:
The awnser is 19 Kilometers
Using the normal distribution, it is found that due to the greater z-score, Stewart caught the longer fish relative to the same specie.
<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>
The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean
and standard deviation
is given by:

- The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
- Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.
To find who caught the longer fish relative to the same specie, we need to find out who had the higher z-score.
Stewart caught a bluefish with a length of 322 mm, hence the parameters are as follows:

The z-score is:


Z = 1.41
Gina caught a pompano with a length of 176 mm, hence the parameters are as follows:

The z-score is:


Z = 0.75.
Hence Stewart caught the longer fish relative to the same specie.

To find the product of (4x-5y)^2,
we can rewrite the problem as:
(4x-5y)(4x-5y) (two times because it is squared)
Now, time to use that old method we learned in middle school:
FOIL. (Firsts, Outers, Inners, and Lasts)
FOIL can help us greatly in this scenario.
Let's start by multiplying the 'Firsts' together:
4x * 4x = <em>16x^2</em>
Now, lets to the 'Outers':
4x * -5y = <em>-20xy</em>
Next, we can multiply the 'Inners':
-5y * 4x = <em>-20xy</em>
Finally, let's do the 'Lasts':
-5y * -5y = <em>25y</em>^2
Now, we can take the products of these equations from FOIL and combine like terms. We have: 16x^2, -20xy, -20xy, and 25y^2.
-20xy and -20xy make -40xy.
The final equation (product of (4x-5y)^2) is:
16x^2 - 40xy + 25y^2
Hope I helped! If any of my math is wrong, please report and let me know!
Have a good one.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What we have is a general equation that says this in words:
Laura's hours + Doug's hours = 250 total hours
Since we don't know either person's number of hours, AND since we can only have 1 unknown in a single equation, we need to write Laura's hours in terms of Doug's, or Doug's hours in terms of Laura's. We are told that Doug spent Laura's hours plus another 40 in the lab, so let's call Laura's hours "x". That makes Doug's hours "x + 40". Now we can write our general equation in terms of x:
x + x + 40 = 250 and
2x = 210 so
x = 105
Since Laura is x, she worked 105 hours in the lab and Doug worked 40 hours beyond what Laura worked. Doug worked 145. As long as those 2 numbers add up to 250, we did the job correctly. 105 + 145 = 250? I believe it does!!
