If the reciprocal of the number $X$ equals $\frac{2}{7}$, what is $5$ divided by $X$?

1 answer:

5 0

U can find the reciprocal of a number by flipping the number.
example : the reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1....the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2.

the reciprocal of x = 2/7.....that means x = 7/2

5 / (7/2) = when dividing fractions, flip what u r dividing by, then multiply
5 * 2/7 =
10/7 or 1 3/7 <==

Make a conjecture about the next item in the sequence. 6, 9, 7, 10, 8?

inessss [21]

Answer:

"The next term should be 11"

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look closely at the sequence we can see:

second term is 3 more than previous

third term is 2 less than previous

fourth term is 3 more than previous

fifth term is 2 less than previous

We can see a pattern. To get next terms, we add 3, to get next to that, we subtract 2. It goes on like this.

Since 4th term to 5th term is "subtracting 2", logically 5th to 6th term (the term we are wanting) should be "add 3". So the term after 8 would be 11

The next term would be 11

Answer:

The reading speed of a sixth-grader whose reading speed is at the 90th percentile is 155.72 words per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 125, \sigma = 24$
