A college administrator states that the average high school GPA for incoming freshman is normally distributed with a mean equal

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we get the z score from the given left tailed area. As

Left tailed area = 1 - 0.10 = 0.9

Then, using table or technology,

z = 1.281551566

As x = u + z * s,

where

u = mean = 3.3

z = the critical z score = 1.281551566

s = standard deviation = 0.2

Then

x = critical value = 3.556310313

the following equation represents the total distance (d) that the Benson family has traveled from their home, after traveling 10
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The distance the Bensons had traveled from their home 3\frac{1}{2} hours after picking up their grand parents  292.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation for the distance the Benson family traveled from their home can be presented as follows;

d = 55·t + 100

Where;

d = The total distance that the Benson family has traveled from their home after traveling 100 miles to pick up their grandparents

t = The time duration the Benson family have been traveled from their grandparents home on the way to their vacation

To find how far from their home the Bensons will be after 3 1/2 hours of driving with their grand parents, we substitute t with 3 1/2 hours or 3.5 hours as follows;

d = 55·t + 100

When t = 3\frac{1}{2} hours, we get;

d = 55 \times 3\frac{1}{2} + 100 = 292.5  \ miles

Therefore, the distance the Bensons had traveled from their home 3\frac{1}{2} hours after picking up their grand parents = 292.5 miles.

PART1
Mice21 [21]
Part 1:\frac{5x^{3} + 10x^{2} + 15x}{5x} = \frac{5x^{3}}{5x} + \frac{10x^{2}}{5x} + \frac{15x}{5x} = x^{2} + 2x + 3
The answer is C.

Part 2:\frac{3x^{4} + 5x^{2} + 2x}{x} = \frac{3x^{4}}{x} + \frac{5x^{2}}{x} + \frac{2x}{x} = 3x^{3} + 5x + 2
The answer is A.

Given f(x) = 10 - 16/x, find all c in the interval [2,8] that satisfy the mean value theorem
Katen [24]
F(x)=10-16/x
f'(x)=16/x^2
f'(c)=16/c^2
f(8)=10-16/8=10-2=8
f(2)=10-16/2=10-8=2
f'(c)= \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a} in (2,8),&#10; \frac{16}{c^2} = \frac{f(8)-f(2)}{8-2} ,&#10; \frac{16}{c^2} = \frac{8-2}{8-2}&#10;
4∈[2,8] is the required point.

11. Maria's age is 3 years more than twice George's age. Which expression represents George's age in terms of Maria's?
leonid [27]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, the catch of this question is that they do a very good job of explaining Maria's age in terms of George's age, but they leave George's age in terms of Maria's all up to you.

First start off by doing an expression of what they explicitly give you. Maria's age in terms of George's age.

Let's use variables g, representing George's age and m representing Maria's age

m = 2g + 3

Okay, this is all dandy and all, but they ask us for George's age in terms of Maria's, so we need to isolate for g.

subtract the 3 from both sides, like so:

m - 3 = 2g

then divide 2 from both sides: (remember we're dividing the whole thing)

(m-3)/2 = g

Now we have an expression for George's age in terms of Maria's.

g = (m-3)/2 or g = \frac{m-3}{2}

The answer that gives us this, is C.
