The ratio of crackers to cheese piece is 12:8 how many times as many crackers as cheese pieces are in the snack pack

Well first, you would start by reducing 12/8. That would reduce to 3/2. That would mean you would have 3 crackers to 2 cheese pieces or 1.5 crackers to cheese

−2x=x2−6 Rewrite the equation by completing the square.
V125BC [204]

Answer:

(x + 1)² = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-2x = x² - 6

We'll start by rearranging it to solve for zero:

x² + 2x - 6 = 0

The first term is already a perfect square so that's fine.  Normally, if that term had a non-square coefficient, you would need to multiply all terms a value that would change that constant to a perfect square.

Because it's already square (1), we can simply move to the next step, separating the -6 into a value that can be doubled to give us the 2, the coefficient of the second term.  That value will of course be 1, giving us:

x² + 2x + 1 - 1 - 6 = 0

Now can group our perfect square on the left and our constants on the right:

x² + 2x + 1 - 7= 0

x² + 2x + 1 = 7

(x + 1)² = 7

To check our answer, we can solve for x:

x + 1 = ± √7

x = -1 ± √7

x ≈ 1.65, -3.65

Let's try one of those in the original equation:

-2x = x² - 6

-2(1.65) = 1.65² - 6

- 3.3 = 2.72 - 6

-3.3 = -3.28

Good.  Given our rounding that difference of 2/100 is acceptable, so the answer is correct.

Scores of an IQ test have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 12. Use the empirical rule t
MissTica

Answer:

A) 99.7% of people have an IQ between 64 and 136.

B) 5% of people have an IQ score less than 76 or greater than 124.

C) 16% of people have an IQ score greater than 112.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule tells us that, in a normal or 'bell-shaped' distribution, 68% of the data is one standard deviation from the mean, 95% of the data is two standard deviations from the mean, and 99.7% of the data is three standard deviations from the mean.

A) 64 and 136 are 3 standard deviations away from the mean, so 99.7% of people have an IQ between 64 and 136.

B) 76 and 124 are 2 standard devations away from the mean, but the answer is asking what percentage is not between them. 100% - 95% gives us 5%.

C) 112 is one standard deviation away from the mean. If we want to find the percentage greater, then we can do 100% - 50% (as 112 is to the left of the mean), then we can take half of 68 to get 34%, and after subtracting 50% and 34% from the 100%, we get 16%.

What statements describe the properties of a plane? Select three options.
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

2)A plane has length and width.

3)A plane extends infinitely in all directions

5)A plane is a flat surface.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can think of a plane as a line in space with no height, only length and width.

Yes, a plane is a two-dimensional surface, hence it has length and width.

2)A plane has length and width (TRUE)

The plane surface extends infinitely far, therefore it extends infinitely in all direction.

3)A plane extends infinitely in all directions (TRUE)

5)A plane is a flat surface(TRUE)

The correct options are 2,3 and 5.
