15x+100=28
x=-6/5
The answer is -6/5
F(5)+G(7) is equal to 1835
This works out beautifully. You COULD use long division here, but since your numerator is a quadratic, your first instinct should be to try and factor it. If you factor it, it works out to be (x - 3)(x + 2). Now it just so happens that when you do that, the (x - 3) in the numerator will cancel with the (x - 3) in the denominator leaving you with one sad and lonely (x + 2) as your answer.
Given that
the weight of football players is distributed with a mean of 200 pounds and a standard deviation of 25 pounds.
And we need to find What is the minimum weight of the middle 95% of the players?
Explanation -
Using the Empirical Rule, 95% of the distribution will fall within 2 times of the standard deviation from the mean.
Two standard deviations = 2 x 25 pounds = 50 pounds
So the minimum weight = 200 pounds - 50 pounds = 150 pounds
Hence the final answer is 150 pounds.
