17x = 85
x = 85/17
x = 5.

Hence x = 5 makes above equality true.

Hope this helps!

17x=85
First: You will divide each side by 17
You will get: x=5
HOPE THIS HELPS! ^_^

Answer:

Due to the higher z-score, Jane did better in class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

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 question:

Whoever's grade had the better z-score did better in class.

Mary's:

Mean of 85, standard deviation of 5, grade of 88. This means that $\mu = 85, \sigma = 5, X = 88$ . So

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

$Z = \frac{88 - 85}{5}$

$Z = 0.6$

Jane's

Mean of 80, standard deviation of 10, grade of 88. This means that $\mu = 80, \sigma = 10, X = 88$ . So

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

$Z = \frac{88 - 80}{10}$

$Z = 0.8$

Due to the higher z-score, Jane did better in class.

mike observed that 75% of the students of a school liked skating. if 35 students of the school didn't like skating, the number o

Cross multiply.

75 / x = 25 / 35
25x = 35(75)
25x = 2625
/25 /25
x = 105

Therefore 105 students liked skating.

Proof:

105 + 35 = 140.
140 * 0.75 = 105
140 * 0.25 = 35

140 (total) split into quarters.

35 + 35 + 35 + 35 = 140
35 + 35 + 35 = 105 (3 quarters liked)
35 = 35 (1 quarter disliked)

Make two equations from the information. Then graph them and see where they intersect. The answer is 62 miles. Plug 62 back into both equations and they should both be the same number.
