Answer:

89.008

Step-by-step explanation:

z = (x– mean)/ standard deviation

x = z * standard deviation + mean

Now, z value for the top 4% of the exams (which is the same as getting a score below the 96%) has to be found using a z table.

In this case z = 1.751

x = 1.751 * 8 + 75

x = 89.008

Given x : y: z = 5:1:3 and z - y = 28. find the value of x + y​
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

x + y = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x : y : z = 5 : 1 : 3, then

\frac{x}{y} = 5 ( multiply both sides by y )

x = 5y ←

and \frac{y}{z} = \frac{1}{3} ( cross- multiply )

3y = z

Substitute z = 3y into z - y = 28

3y - y = 28

2y = 28 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 14 ← ←

Substitute y = 14 into x = 5y

x = 5 × 14 = 70 ← ←

Substitute y = 14 into z - y = 28

z - 14 = 28 ( add 14 to both sides )

z = 42 ← ←

Thus x = 70, y = 14 and z = 42

Hence x + y = 70 + 14 = 84

Answer:

If f(x)=g(x), the solution is x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

f(x)=3x+3\\g(x)= (-1/2)x-4

We need to find the solution if f(x)=g(x)

Now solving for f(x)=g(x)

f(x)=g(x)\\3x+3=(-\frac{1}{2}x)-4\\3x+3=-\frac{1}{2}x-4\\3x+\frac{1}{2}x=-4-3\\\frac{3x*2+x}{2}=-7\\\frac{6x+x}{2}=-7\\\frac{7x}{2}=-7\\x=-7*\frac{2}{7}\\x=-2

If f(x)=g(x), the solution is x=-2
