Answer:

Leila is 37 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Leila was half Miguel's age when Miguel was 6, Leila had to have been 3 years old. This tells you that Leila is 3 years younger than Miguel. Subtract 3 from 40 to get 37.

A player shoots a basketball from a height of 6 feet. The equation, h = -16t^2 + 25t + 6, gives the height, h , of the basketbal

noname [10]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 7.5 \ feet}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given this function for the height (h) after t seconds:

$h=-16t^2+25t+6$

Seconds is t and we want to find the height after 1.5 seconds. Plug 1.5 in for t.

$h= -16(1.5)^2+25(1.5)+6$

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

Solve the exponent first.

(1.5)²= 1.5*1.5=2.25

$h= -16(2.25)+25(1.5)+6$

Multiply.

$h= -36+25(1.5)+6$

$h= -36+37.5+6$

Add.

$h=1.5+6=7.5$

This is already rounded to the nearest tenth, so it is the answer.

After 1.5 seconds, the basketball is at a height of 7.5 feet.

an instructor grades on a curve by assuming that grades on a test are normally distributed. If the average grade is 80 and the s

sweet [91]

Step-by-step explanation:

According to normal distribution curves following a bell curve formula, it is followed that

34% of people will lie between Mean point and one positive standard deviation

34% of people will lie between Mean point and one negative standard deviation

14% of people will lie between Mean point and two positive standard deviation

14% of people will lie between Mean point and two negative standard deviation

2% of people will lie between Mean point and three positive standard deviation

2% of people will lie between Mean point and three negative standard deviation

Now following this principle, we are given that mean score is 80 and standard deviation is 8, hence the interval for grades would be;

Grade A ; Score greater than 96

Grade B : Score greater than 88 and less than or equal to 96

Grade C : Score greater than 80 and less than or equal to 88

Grade D : Score greater than 72 and less than or equal to 80

Grade E : Score greater than 64 and less than or equal to 72

Grade F : Score less than 64

What is -4 (-6x + 3) = 12

IgorC [24]

Answer: x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

-4(-6x + 3) = 12

Reorder the terms:

-4(3 + -6x) = 12

(3 * -4 + -6x * -4) = 12

(-12 + 24x) = 12

Solving

-12 + 24x = 12

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '12' to each side of the equation.

-12 + 12 + 24x = 12 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0

0 + 24x = 12 + 12

24x = 12 + 12

Combine like terms: 12 + 12 = 24

24x = 24

Divide each side by '24'.

x = 1

Simplifying

x = 1
