Well, in the first one, 2 degrees below zero is -2 degrees, and then it says that it dropped 14 degrees, which means it dropped -14 degrees, so to know the total amount it dropped you would just have to add -2 plus -14 which is -16 degrees, so your answer for the first question would be the last answer, -16 degrees.
For the second question, just know that whenever a negative number is BY ITSELF in parentheses, that means it is used like a positive number in the equation. So (-12) automatically becomes 12. Now, since the problem is asking for a SUM, (the answer to an ADDITION problem; when you add instead of subtract), you would turn that minus symbol to a plus symbol, and add normally to get your final answer; 30 + 12 = 42. To check if this is correct, just type in <span>30 – (–12) to a calculator and you'll get the same answer! :D
Hope this helps! :3</span>
Trick Question their is No 1
Answer: 4.27% of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a random variable that denotes a person with high blood pressure .
Given: Average blood pressure: 
Standard deviation: 
Someone qualifies as having Stage 2 high blood pressure if their systolic blood pressure is 160 or higher.
The probability that an adult in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure:
![P(x\geq160)=P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}}\geq\dfrac{160-122}{22})\\\\=P(z\geq1.72)\ \ \ [z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\=1-P(z](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28x%5Cgeq160%29%3DP%28%5Cdfrac%7Bx-%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D%7D%5Cgeq%5Cdfrac%7B160-122%7D%7B22%7D%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%3DP%28z%5Cgeq1.72%29%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5Bz%3D%5Cdfrac%7Bx-%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D1-P%28z%3C1.72%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D1-0.9573%5C%20%5C%20%5BBy%5C%20p-value%5C%20table%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D0.0427%3D4.27%5C%25)
Hence, 4.27% of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure.
Answer:
Height = 1 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height
11.5 =1/2 x 23 x height
23/23 = height
height = 1
Um maybe add some answers choices or a picture next time pls !!
