Answer:
2x-7 or 7-2w
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we want just the top 20% applicants and the data is normally distributed, we can use a z-score table to check the z-score that gives this percentage.
The z-score table usually shows the percentage for the values below a certain z-score, but since the whole distribution accounts to 100%, we can do the following.
We want a z* such that:
But, to use a value that is in a z-score table, we do the following:
So, we want a z-score that give a percentage of 80% for the value below it.
Using the z-score table or a z-score calculator, we can see that:
![\begin{gathered} P(zNow that we have the z-score cutoff, we can convert it to the score cutoff by using:[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\Longrightarrow x=z\sigma+\mu](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20P%28zNow%20that%20we%20have%20the%20z-score%20cutoff%2C%20we%20can%20convert%20it%20to%20the%20score%20cutoff%20by%20using%3A%5Btex%5Dz%3D%5Cfrac%7Bx-%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D%5CLongrightarrow%20x%3Dz%5Csigma%2B%5Cmu)
Where z is the z-score we have, μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation, so:
so, the cutoff score is approximately 72.
Answer:
m∠ABC = 74
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the measures of three angles of any triangle is invariably equal to the straight angle, also expressed as 180 °
So you subtract the given measurements of ∠BAC (76°) and ∠ ACB (19°) from 180. 180-76-19 = 74
The measurement of angle ABC is 74°
Whenever a problem says "one number" and "another number" we can substitute x and y. for this we have x=2y+1 and xy=1. since we know the value of x (2y+1) we can substitute it for the other equation to get (2y+1)y=10. simplify to get 2y^2+y=10. from here you can do a few methods to solve this, but the simplest in my opinion is by factoring.
In order to factor it must be equal to 0, so we have 2y^2+y-10=0. We factor this and get y=5 (we also get y=-4 but it is an extraneous root). now we can plug that into either equation and find that x=2.
this means our two numbers are 5 and 2
