Answer:

Mrs. Kwok is 42.

Her daughter is 12.

Step-by-step explanation: Mrs. Knok's age = x    Daughter's age = y

x-6=3y   ,   (x-8)+2=9(y-8)    

                    x-6=9y-72

(x-6)-(x-6) = (9y-72)-(3y)                                 x-6=3(12)

0 = 6y-72                                                        x-6=36

6y=72                                                              x=42

y=12

The complex numbers corresponding to the endpoints of one diagonal of a square drawn on a complex plane are 1 + 2i and -2 – i.
kodGreya [7K]
Technically the endpoints will be intersection of first endpoint between x=1 and y=-1second endpoint between x=-2 and y=2
so they are 1-i and -2+2i

Please help <br><br>must show work<br><br><br>there are 5 that I'm stuck on​
Cloud [144]

you cannot show too much "work"

basically, you remove what is common to all of the factors, and then put brackets, as it will be multiplied back in, remember that when you multiply exponents with the same base, its same as adding them, so subtract to remove...

you can seperate two of the variables , then factor, then subtract the last one from those two, because it cannot be factored out , as in part2 #2

Begin by factoring 2 out of   2x^2 - 2x - 12 equals 0:

2(x^2 - x - 6) = 0

2(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0.  2 is never zero, but x-3 and x+2 can each be set = to 0:

This results in x = 3 and x = -2.  The equation is true for these two x-values.

Why are quartiles generally more reliable for judging outliers than mean and standard deviation?
lesya [120]
<span>Quartiles are generally more reliable for judging outliers than mean and standard deviations for 2 reasons. The mean is simply the average of all of the numbers, meaning that an outlier can easily be obscured by the masses. Standard deviation is a better method, however only going over by one standard deviation in either direction would also mask an outlier. A strong outlier however will pull a quartile farther in that direction than would normally be expected.</span>
