You can combine the same numbers with the same variables using the operation sign for each. For example, using your equation, you would combine the 3n and 4n which is 7n. So your equation would be
7n - 2

Combining like terms means that if u have two terms that are the same coefficient like 3n and 4n you have to either add or subtract because You have to have only one n in one side so u add 3 to 4 and u get 7n. Another example: 3n-2= 4n you would have to the same thing which is to add both. I'm sorry I'm not the best at explaining

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

300,000 $cm^{2}$ is bigger

Step-by-step explanation:

10 x 40 = 400

18 x 40 = 720

400 x 720 = 288,000 $cm^{2}$ (area of the bedroom)

300,000 $cm^{2}$ is bigger by 12,000 $cm^{2}$ (so the kitchen is bigger)

The scores for a certain test of intelligence are normally distributed with mean 85 and standard deviation 11. Find the 90th per

jonny [76]

Answer:

99.1 is the 90th percentile of these scores.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 85

Standard Deviation, σ = 11

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

Formula:

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

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.90

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 85}{11})=0.90$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z \leq 1.282) = 0.90$

Putting values, we get,

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 85}{11} = 1.282\\\\x = 99.1$

Thus, 99.1 is the 90th percentile of these scores.
