To solve this, we use the z test.
The formula:
z = (x – u) / s
where x is sample value = 20, u is the mean = 15, and s is
the standard deviation = 2.5
z = (20 – 15) / 2.5
z = 2
Since we are looking for values greater than 20, this is
right tailed test. We use the standard distribution tables to find for P.
P = 0.0228
Therefore:
number of students = 100 * 0.0228 = 2.28

Answer:
(x - 2)(5x + 3) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
5x² - 7x - 6 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 5 × - 6 = - 30 and sum = - 7
The factors are - 10 and + 3
Use these factors to split the x- term
5x² - 10x + 3x - 6 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
5x(x - 2) + 3(x - 2) = 0 ← factor out (x - 2) from each term
(x - 2)(5x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form
Answer:
A loss of weight means we subtract from Jack's current weight.
Step-by-step explanation:
A loss of weight means we subtract from Jack's current weight. New Weight = Current Weight - Weight Loss per week * number of weeksNew Weight =257 - 3*12New Weight =257 - 36New Weight = 221
