Answer:

B. 84%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean= π=75

Standard Deviation= σ=5

As we have to calculate the percentage of score less than 80, we will find the z-score of 80

z=(x-μ)/σ

=  (80-75)/5

=5/5

=1

The z-score table value for 1 is 0.8413.

For converting this value into percentage, the value will be multiplied by 100.

So,

Percentage of students whose score is less than 80 = 0.8413*100

=84.13%

Rounding off gives us : 84%

So option B is the correct answer..

Rectangle

l = 7.2 - 1.7 = 5.5 ft            b = 3.4 ft

Semicircle

r = 1.7 ft

Shaded region = area of rectangle + area of semicircle

= l x b + πr²/2

= 5.5 x 3.4 + 3.14 x 1.7 x 1.7 x 1/2

= 18.7 + 4.5373

= 23.2373 ft²

The sum of two and the quotient of a number x and five
Burka [1]
The sum of two and the quotient of a number x and fine.

sum= +

two= 2

quotient= divide

five= 5

2+ x/5 <- should look something like this

I hope this helps!

Solve for x. Leave your answer in simplest radical form.
pochemuha

Answer:

x = 4√7

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the pythagorean theorem which is a² + b² = c²

if you plug it in, it would be...

x² + 12² = 16²

x² + 144 = 256, subtract 144 to both sides

x² = 112, square root both sides to make x by itself.

x = 4√7

Marcus states that the polynomial expression 3x3 – 4x2y + y2 + 2 is in standard form. Ariel states that it should be y2 – 4x2y +
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Here Ariel is wrong because 3x^3 is higher power than y^2

3x^3 goes first

then the mixed term -4x^2y

then the y^2

then the 2

So, Marcus is right

Standard form means that you write the terms by descending degree. here's main rules how to write polynomial expression in the standard form:

1. write the term with the highest exponent first (terms of third degree in our case 3x^3 );

2. write the terms with lower exponents in descending order (term -4x^2y followed by y^2 );

3. remember that a variable with no exponent has an understood exponent of 1 (here are no such terms);

4. a constant term (a number with no variable) always goes last (term 2).
