290-10=280

280 is one standard deviation below.
All that are above mean is 50%.
One standard deviation below is 34%.
50%+34%=84%  all of these bags weigh more than 280 g.
So,
100%-84%=16%  should be bags that are less than 280 g.

Answer is b) 16 %.

Find the other endpoint of the line segment with the given endpoint and midpoint. Endpoint: (9,8) Midpoint (0,9)​
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

(-9, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of the midpoint of a line with endpoint at (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is given as (x, y). The location of x and y are:

x = \frac{x_1+x_2}{2},y=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}

Given the endpoint (9,8) and Midpoint (0,9), the location of the other endpoint can be gotten from:

0=\frac{9+x_2}{2}\\ \\9+x_2=0\\\\x_2=-9\\\\Also,9=\frac{8+y_2}{2}\\ \\8+y_2=18\\\\y_2=18-8\\\\y_2=10

Hence the endpoint is at (x2, y2) which is at (-9, 10)

One scientific team determened that the avrage thickness of a chickens egg shell is 0.311 millimeters
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

As we can see the average for the thickness of a chickens egg shell is 0.311 mm and if we want to round this number to the nearest tenth we just need to see the second decimal place and round to one decimal place.

This second decimal place for this number is 1 and this number is \leq 5 so then if we round to the nesrest tenth we will get:

0.3 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the following info in order to complete the qeustion:

Round the thickness of the shell to the nearest tenth.

0.3

0.5

0.92

The Quadratic Equation c² + 6c+ 8 = 0<br><br> Show work please
Bad White [126]
The formula for the quadratic formula is x (c in this case) = (-b(+/-)√(b²-4ac))/2a
This is used for an equation in standard quadratic form: ax² + bx + c = 0
1.) Put it in the correct form, if not already in it.
Ex. c² + 6c + 8 = 0
2.) Identify each part of the equation:
a = 1 (the leading coefficient), b = 6 (the coefficient in front of the second variable), c = 8
3.) Plug in each variable answer
c = (-6(+/-)√(6²-4(1)(8))/2(1)
4.) Simplify
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-(4*8))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-32))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(4))/2
c = (-6(+/-)2)/2
*Here, the equation splits in two. It becomes:
c = (-6+2)/2 AND c = (-6-2)/2
*Simplify again:
c = -4/2 AND c = -8/2
c = -2 AND c = -4
The answers c = -2 and c = -4 would solve the given equation.
Hope this helps! :)

I need to know number 5 just what it says thank you
Stels [109]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay! Time to use the Pythagoras theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

4^2 + 7^2 = x^2

16 + 49 = c^2

65 = c^2

Let's take the square root of both sides to get

c ~ 8.06

C
