Answer:

x = -19

Step-by-step explanation:

1. make parentheses disappeared using distribution law.

$- 12x - 36 - 20 + 8x = 20$

2. sum up b numbers and x

$- 4x - 56 = 20$

3. separate x and number to two sides of the equation

$- 4x = 76$

4. both side divided by -4

$x = - 19$

After 3 points have been added to every score in a sample, the mean is found to be M 5 83 and the standard deviation is s 5 8. W

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Hence the value for the mean is 80 and the standard deviation for the original sample is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = 83-3 = 80.

Here the standard deviation didn't change = 8.

Answer:

$\frac{ |a + x| }{2} - \frac{ |a - x| }{2} \\ \\ = \frac{ | - 2 - 6| }{2} - \frac{ | - 2 + 6| }{2} \\ \\ = \frac{ | - 8| }{2} - \frac{ |4| }{2} \\ \\ = \frac{8}{2} - \frac{4}{2} \\ \\ = 4 - 2 = 2$

Carl is standing at the top of 35 Ft cliff looking down at a rock for motion in the sea. He estimates the angle of depression is

Liula [17]

The horizontal distance between Carl and the rock at sea is approximately 60.62ft.

Data;

Angle = 30 degree
Opposite = 35
Adjacent = x

<h3>Trigonometric Ratio</h3>

Given the angle of depression from his point to the sea, we can use trigonometric ratio to calculate for the horizontal distance from his location to the bottom of the sea.

SOHCAHTOA

Since we have the value of angle and opposite and we need to calculate the adjacent side of the right-angle triangle, we can use the tangent of the angle to this effect.

$Tan\theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\tan 30 = \frac{35}{x}\\ x = \frac{35}{tan30}\\ x = 60.62ft$

The horizontal distance between Carl and the rock at sea is approximately 60.62ft.
