Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u>Finding the value of x</u></h2>

4*(3x + 12 ) = -36

12x + 48 = -36

12x = -36 - 48

12x = -84

<u>x = -7</u>

The forumla f = 3y yards y to feed f and f = (n/12) converts inches n to feet f. write a composition of functions that converts
Solnce55 [7]
Equating the two formulas for f, you have
  n/12 = f = 3y
Then multiplying by 12 you get
  n = 36y

This formula converts yards (y) to inches (n).

The prime factors of a number are 2, 2, 2, and 5. What is the number?
fgiga [73]

Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 40 could be = 1 x 40, 2 x 20, 4 x 10, or 5 x 8.

The Factors of 40 will therefore be: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40.

The Prime factor then is: 2, 2, 2, 5

Multiplying them together gives 40.

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of equations?
iren2701 [21]

(- 2, - 3) is a solution to the given system of equations.

Answer: Option D

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given equation are not presented in proper format. So, let assume the given system of are as below,

         2 x - y = -1

         2 x -4 y = 8

Now, subtract the second equation from the first, we get

          (2 x - y) -(2 x - 4 y) = -1 -8

          3 y = -9  

           y = -3 (obtained this when divide by 3)

Substituting y = - 3 into the first equation, we get

          2 x - (-3) = - 1

          2 x = - 1 + 3

          x = - 2 (obtained when divide by 2)

Now, the answer is (x, y) = (- 2, - 3)

6. The heights of men selected from a particular population have a normal distribution with mean 68 inches and standard deviatio
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

a) the proportion is 0.159 (15.9%)

b) the proportion is 0.524 (52.4%)

c) Ralph is 70.958 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

defining our random variable X= heights of men , then we can define the standard random variable Z as

Z= (X- μ)/σ , where  μ is the population's mean and σ is the corresponding standard deviation of X

then for X=72

Z= (X- μ)/σ

Z= (72-68)/4 = 1

a) P(X> 72) = P(Z> 1) = 1-0.841 = 0.159 (using standard normal distribution tables)

b) for X=64 and X=74

Z₁= (64 -68)/4 = -1

Z₂= (74-68)/4 = 1.5

then

P(68<X< 74) = P(-1<Z <1.5) 0 = P(Z<1.5) - P(Z<-1) =  0.933- 0.159 =0.774

c) Z₃ = 0.933 - 0.774*0.25 = 0.7395

thus

Z₃= (X₃- μ)/σ →X₃ =μ+ Z₃*σ = 68 + 0.7395*4  = 70.958 inches

therefore Ralph is 70.958 inches tall
