Answer:

x= -2/5 and x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is,

5x^2 - 13x - 6 = 0

Or, 5x^2 - 15x + 2x - 6 = 0 ( using middle term method)

Or, 5x( x- 3) + 2 (x-3) = 0

Or, (x-3) (5x+2) = 0

Now, x will have 2 answers because it's degree is 2. Total number of values depends on the power of variable.

So, x= 3 or, 5x = -2

Or, x= -2/5

So, the answer is x= -2/5 and x= 3.

Answer: 22

Step-by-step explanation: Perimeter of a rectangle is 2H + 2B = P

if each side has 28 feet then 28* 2 = 56. We take 100 - 56 = 44. Then we take 44/2 to find one remaining side = 22.

The output from a statistical computer program indicates that the mean and standard deviation of a data set consisting of 200 me

Answer:

The limit that 97.5% of the data points will be above is $912.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 1500, \sigma = 300$
