To solve for this word problem, keep in mind that when you have a discount off of a price, it means that the percentage of that price is taken off of the original price. To do this, first multiply 15% to 45 in order to find the amount of money taken off the original price. When you have a percent, convert it to a decimal before multiplying it so you would convert 15% to 0.15 (move the decimal left twice). When you multiply 0.15 to 45, you should get 6.75. Then, subtract 6.75 from the original price, 45 dollars and you get your answer as $38.25 for the suit with a discount. Hope this helps! :)

3 = -2x + 1 what is the value of x
DerKrebs [107]

Subtract 1 from both sides

3 - 1 = -2x

Simplify 3 -1 to 2

2 = -2x

Divide both sides by -2

-1 = x

Switch sides

<u>x = -1</u>

9. Write The eQuaTION OF THE LINE THAT Passes THROUGH THE
lara31 [8.8K]

The final equation of line that passes through (9, 0) AND (0, -6) is:

y=\frac{2}{3}x-6

Further explanation:

The general form of equation of line is:

y=mx+b

Given

(x1,y1) = (9,0)

(x2,y2) = (0, -6)

We have to find the slope first:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\= \frac{-6-0}{0-9}\\=\frac{-6}{-9}\\=\frac{2}{3}

Putting the value of slope in general form

y=\frac{2}{3}x+b

To find the value of b, we have to put a point in the equation

Putting (9,0) in equation

0=\frac{2}{3}(9)+b\\0=2*3+b\\0=6+b\\b=-6

Putting the values of b and m in general form

The final equation of line that passes through (9, 0) AND (0, -6) is:

y=\frac{2}{3}x-6

The time needed to complete a final examination in a particular college course is normally distributed with a mean of 80 minutes
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

A) P=2.28%

B) P=28.57%

C) I expect 10 students to be unable to complete the exam in the alloted time.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we will need to find the respective z-scores. The z-scores are found by using the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{sigma}

Where:

z= z-score

x= the value to normalize

\mu = mean

\sigma= standard deviation

The z-score will help us find the area below the normal distribution curve, so in order to solve this problem we need to shade the area we need to find. (See attached picture)

A) First, we find the z-score for 60 minutes, so we get:

z=\frac{60-80}{10}=-2

So now we look for the z-score on our normal distribution table. Be careful with the table you are using since some tables will find areas other than the area between the mean and the desired data. The table I used finds the area between the mean and the value to normalize.

so:

A=0.4772 for a z-score of -2

since we want to find the number of students that take less than 60 minutes, we subtract that decimal number from 0.5, so we get:

0.5-0.4772=0.0228

therefore the probability that a student finishes the exam in less than 60 minutes is:

P=2.28%

B) For this part of the problem, we find the z-score again, but this time for a time of 75 minutes:

z=\frac{75-80}{10}=-0.5

and again we look for this z-score on the table so we get:

A=0.1915 for a z-score of -0.5

Now that we got this area we subtract it from the area we found for the 60 minutes, so we get:

0.4772-0.1915=0.2857

so there is a probability of P=28.57% of chances that the students will finish the test between 60 and 75 minutes.

C) Finally we find the z-score for a time of 90 minutes, so we get:

z=\frac{90-80}{10}=1

We look for this z-score on our table and we get that:

A=0.3413

since we need to find how many students will take longer than 90 minutes to finish the test, we subtract that number we just got from 0.5 so we get:

0.5-0.3413=0.1586

this means there is a 15.86% of probabilities a student will take longer than 90 minutes. Now, since we need to find how many of the 60 students will take longer than the 90 available minutes, then we need to multiply the total amount of students by the percentage we previously found, so we get:

60*0.1586=9.516

so approximately 10 Students will be unavailable to complete the exam in the allotted time.
