Apply the rules for order of operstions to simplify 2 + 3 - 4 (5 × 4)

1 answer:

7 0

Just use PEMDAS
2+3-4 (5x4)

Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction So first is Parenthesis 5x4=20 next will be Addition because there are no exponents 2+3= 5-4= 1 so now we go back to multiplication 20 x 1= 20 so 20 is your answer.

Hope I helped out ^^

Given two vectors A=2i+3j+4k,B=i-2j+3k find the magnitude and direction of sum (physics question)

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

$Magnitude =\sqrt{59} \\\\Direction \: of \: \overrightarrow{A + B} = \frac{3}{\sqrt {59}} , \:\frac{1}{\sqrt {59}} , \:\frac{7}{\sqrt {59}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A=2i+3j+4k

B=i-2j+3k

Sum of the vectors:

A + B = 2i+3j+4k + i-2j+3k = 3i + j + 7k

$Magnitude =\sqrt{3^2 + 1^2+ 7^2} \\\\Magnitude =\sqrt{9+1+49} \\\\Magnitude =\sqrt{59}$

Direction of the sum of the vectors:

$\widehat{A + B} =\frac{\overrightarrow{A + B}}{Magnitude\: of \:\overrightarrow{A + B}} \\\\\widehat{A + B} =\frac{3i + j + 7k}{\sqrt {59}} \\\\\widehat{A + B} =\frac{3}{\sqrt {59}} i +\frac{1}{\sqrt {59}} j+\frac{7}{\sqrt {59}} k\\\\Direction \: of \: \overrightarrow{A + B} = \frac{3}{\sqrt {59}} , \:\frac{1}{\sqrt {59}} , \:\frac{7}{\sqrt {59}} \\\\$

Slope intercept form of a line that has a slope of -3/4 and passes through (4, 3)

tia_tia [17]

<h3>Explanation</h3>

First Method

We have the given slope value and the coordinate point that the graph passes through.

$y = mx + b$

where m = slope and b = y-intercept. Substitute the value of slope in the equation.

$y = - \frac{3}{4} x + b$

We have the given coordinate point as well. After we substitute the slope, we substitute the coordinate point value in the equation.

$3 = - \frac{3}{4} (4) + b \\$

Solve the equation for b-term

$3 = - 3 + b \\ 3 + 3 = b \\ 6 = b$

The value of b is 6. We substitute the value of b in the equation.

$y = - \frac{3}{4} x + 6$

Second Method

We can also use the Point-Slope form to solve the question.

$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$

Given the y1 and x1 = the coordinate point value.

Substitute the slope and coordinate point value in the point slope form.

$y - 3 = - \frac{3}{4} (x - 4)$

Simplify/Convert into Slope-intercept

$y = - \frac{3}{4} (x - 4) + 3 \\ y = - \frac{3}{4} x + \frac{12}{4} + 3 \\ y = - \frac{3}{4} x + 3 + 3 \\y = - \frac{3}{4} x + 6$

<h3>Answer</h3>

 $\large \boxed {y = - \frac{3}{4} x + 6}$

The distribution of IQ scores can be modeled by a normal distribution with mean 100 and standard deviation 15.

evablogger [386]

Answer:

4.4% of the population with IQ between 120 and 125.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 100

Standard Deviation, σ = 15

We are given that the distribution of IQ scores is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

a) Let X be a person's IQ score.

Then, density functions for IQ scores is given by:

$P(x) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2\pi}}e^{-\frac{z^2}{2}}\\\\\text{where,}\\\\z = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\P(x) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2\pi}}e^{-\frac{(x-\mu)^2}{2\sigma^2}}\\\\P(x) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2\pi}}e^{-\frac{(x-100)^2}{450}}$

b) P(population with IQ between 120 and 125.)

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$P(120 \leq x \leq 125) = P(\displaystyle\frac{120 - 100}{15} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{125-100}{15}) = P(1.33 \leq z \leq 1.66)\\\\= P(z \leq 1.66) - P(z < 1.33)\\= 0.952 - 0.908 = 0.044 = 4.4\%$

$P(120 \leq x \leq 125) = 4.4\%$

5 % of 170 is what number?

Darina [25.2K]

Answer: 3400

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, 5% × x = 170

or,

100

× x = 170

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 5,

we have x = 170 ×

100

x = 3400

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 170×100÷5, which will give you the answer.
