15) x^2-2x-8=1/4x-1
x^2-2.25x-7=0
4x^2-9x-28=0
(x-4)(4x+7)=0
x-4= 0 or 4x+7=0
x=4 or x= -7/4=-1.75
16) answer hides in the f(x) equation
the trick is to think of the value that will make the (x-4) =0 and and the y value can be directly plugged off from the +c
therefore, ans is x=2 y= 4

The average homicide rate for the cities and towns in a state is 10 per 100,000 population with a standard deviation of 2. If th

Answer:

$P(X>8)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{8-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{8-10}{2})=P(Z>-1)$

And we can find this probability with the complement rule:

$P(Z>-1)=1-P(Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the average homicide rate for the cities of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(10,2)$
