Answer:

A score of 92

Step-by-step explanation:

The score which has higher z-score has a higher relative position,

Since, z-score or standard score of a score x is,

z=\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma}

Where, \mu is mean,

\sigma is standard deviation,

Thus,

The z-score of a score of 92 on a test with a mean of 71 and a standard deviation of 15 is,

z_1=\frac{92-71}{15}

=\frac{21}{15}

=1.4

Also, the z-score of a score of 688 on a test with a mean of 493 and a standard deviation of 150 is,

z_2=\frac{688-493}{150}

=\frac{195}{150}

=1.3

Since, z_1>z_2

Hence, A score of 92 has the higher relative position.

solution:

a score of 92 has z score of

z=\frac{x-μ}{σ}=\frac{92-71}{5}=1.40

a score of 688 has z score of

z=\frac{x-μ}{σ}=\frac{688-493}{150}=1.30

a score of 92 is better because its z score is higher

The two triangles are similar below. Find the value of x in the following: (NOT DRAWN TO SCALE)​
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

  x = 2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of the similar triangles are proportional:

  x/(x+3) = 8/18

  18x = 8(x +3) . . . . . multiply by 18(x+3)

  10x = 24 . . . . . . . . subtract 8x

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

A.The answer four square root of two plus ten is irrational because the sum of a rational number and irrational number is an irrational number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the question as 4√2 + 5√4 the sum is  

4√2 + 5*√4

4√2 + 5*2

4√2 + 10

Putting an irrational number in decimal form, it goes on forever without repeating.

4*√2 +10 = 4× 1.41421356237 +10

Ksju [112]

Answer:

(x - 9)(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 6x - 27

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 27) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 6)

The factors are - 9 and + 3, since

- 9 × 3 = - 27 and - 9 + 3 = - 6, thus

x² - 6x - 27 = (x - 9)(x + 3)
