Five less than twice the square of a negative number is -9 times the number. Find the number.​

Since the first part says the value is five less then twice the square of a negative number we get the first equation as 2(-x)²-5. Then we have that -9x is equal to that previous equation. Therefore our new equation is 2(-x)²-5=-9x. We can move the nine over by adding it to both side to get 2(-x)²+9x-5=0. Then you can use any method of factoring (I prefer quadratic formula) to get your values for x. By doing so, you’ll get x=28 and x=-32.5. Since the problem said the number was negative in the first part, you know you can’t have the 28 as the answer so the right answer is -32.5.

Answer:

the standard deviation of the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways is 6.0 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the standard deviation of the speeds of cars is shown below;

The z score for the top 1% is 2.326

So,

= (75 - 61) ÷ standard deviation = 2.326

Standard deviation is

= 14 ÷ 2.326

= 6.0 miles per hour

Hence, the standard deviation of the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways is 6.0 miles per hour
