  1. First create an expression for <em>the product of 5 and a number x is 1/4.</em>
  2. The product of 5 and a number x: multiplication between 5 and the number x (5x)
  3. is 1/4: = 1/4
  4. Create the equation: 5x = 1/4
  5. To solve this equation, divide both sides by 5 to isolate and solve for x.
  6. x = 1/4 ÷ 5 ⇒ 1/4 × 1/5 = 1/20
<h3>x = 1/20</h3>

is your answer.

Hi!

5x = 1/4

5x = 0.25

<h3>Divide by 5 on both sides</h3>

5x/5 = 0.25/5

x = 0.05

<h3>Convert 0.05 to a fraction</h3>

5/100

<h3>Simplify the fraction</h3>

1/20

<h2>The answer is X=1/20</h2>

Hope this helps! :)

VladimirAG [237]

Explanation:

1. It means that Nikoleta is longer and heavier than 10% of children her age.

2. We generally expect that a change from being in the 50th percentile to the 10th percentile signifies a condition that is interfering with normal growth. That is not usually considered desirable.

[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is a leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is the hypotenuse<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

Leg <em>a</em> = <em>a</em>

Leg <em>b</em> = 12

Hypotenuse <em>c</em> = 20

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>

  1. Substitute in variables [Pythagorean Theorem]:                                            a² + 12² = 20²
  2. Evaluate exponents:                                                                                         a² + 144 = 400
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Isolate <em>a</em> term:                                           a² = 256
  4. [Equality Property] Square root both sides:                                                    a = 16

In a recent contest, the mean score was 210 and the standard deviation was 25. a) Find the z-score of John who scored 190 b) Fin
denpristay [2]

Answer:

a) Z = -0.8

b) Z = 2.4

c) Mary's score was 241.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be 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 = 210, \sigma = 25

a) Find the z-score of John who scored 190

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

Z = \frac{190 - 210}{25}

Z = -0.8

b) Find the z-score of Bill who scored 270

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

Z = \frac{270 - 210}{25}

Z = 2.4

c) If Mary had a score of 1.25, what was Mary’s score?

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

1.25 = \frac{X - 210}{25}

X - 210 = 25*1.25

X = 241.25

Mary's score was 241.25.
