To solve for the minimum score required, we find for the z score value at P = 0.97 (top 3%). The z score is:

z = 1.88

Then we use the formula to find for X:

z = (X – u) / s

1.88 = (X – 400) / 100

X = 588

 

<span>You have to score at least 588.</span>

What is the answer for:<br> v+9/3=8
Klio2033 [76]
V + \frac{9}{3} = 8

First, simplify \frac{9}{3} to 3. / Your problem should look like: v + 3 = 8.
Second, subtract 3 from both sides. / Your problem should look like: v = 8 - 3.
Third, simplify 8 - 3 to 5. / Your problem should look like: v = 5, which is your answer.

Binomial ( 5x - y ) ^ 10 terms ax ^ 2 y ^8
iragen [17]
\bf (5x-y)^{10}\implies &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;term&coefficient&value\\&#10;-----&-----&-----\\&#10;1&+1&(5x)^{10}(-y)^0\\&#10;2&+10&(5x)^9(-y)^1\\&#10;3&+45&(5x)^8(-y)^2\\&#10;4&+120&(5x)^7(-y)^3\\&#10;5&+210&(5x)^6(-y)^4\\&#10;6&+252&(5x)^5(-y)^5\\&#10;7&+210&(5x)^4(-y)^6\\&#10;8&+120&(5x)^3(-y)^7\\ 9&+45&(5x)^2(-y)^8&#10;\end{array}

now, how do we get the coefficients?  well, the first coefficient is 1, any subsequent is " the product of the current terms's coefficient and the exponent of the first element, divided by the exponent of the second element in the next term", now that's a mouthful, but for example,

how did get 210 for the 5th expanded term?  well is just 120 * 7 / 4

how about 252 of the 6th term?   210 * 6 / 5.

how about 45 of the 9th one?  120 * 3 / 8.

of course, the exponents for each is simple, as you'd already know from the binomial theorem.

so, just expand away the 9th expanded term.
