40% of college students scored more than 70% on a math test. 120 students scored below that.

1 answer:

4 0

So if 40% of college students scored above 70%, then 60% of college students scored below 70%.

Our equation would be: 0.60x=120
x=120/0.60
x=12000/60
So x equal 200 students took the math test

Answer the questions below about the quadratic function.

Korolek [52]

Given the function $f(x)=3x^2-18x+23$ . The above function can be written as

$f(x)=3x^2-18x+23\\ f(x)=3(x^2-6x)+23\\ f(x)=3(x^2-6x+9-9)+23\\ f(x)=3(x-3)^2-27+23\\ f(x)=3(x-3)^2-4$

a)Now, the function $f(x)=3(x-3)^2-4$ has minimum value since the coefficient of $(x-3)^2$ is $3>0$ .

b) The minimum value of the function occurs at $x=3$ and its value is

$f(3)=3(3-3)^2-4 =-4$

c)The minimum value of the function occurs at $x=3$ .

Line GJ is tangent to point A at point G.<br><br> If AG = 9 and GJ = 12, find AJ.

svlad2 [7]

Okay we know that tangent-chords creat 90 degree angles so what we have is a right triangle with a base of 9 and a height of 12, so do Pythoagoreas Theorem and we have 81+144=225 square root of 225 is 15 and that is AJ

The number of permutations of the 25 letters taken 2 at a time (with repetitions) is: $25^{2}$
The number of permutations of the 9 digits taken 4 at a time (with repetitions) is:
$9^{4}$
Each permutation of letters can be taken with each permutation of digits, therefore the total number of possible passwords is:
$25^{2}\times 9^{4}=4,100,625$

Answer:

306mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

the height h = 86/2 -34 = 43-34=9mm

the area = 34×9= 306mm²
