Answer:
x1= -4
x2 = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the equation equal to zero
x2 − 16 = 0
then
(x + 4)(x − 4) = 0
(x+4)= 0 which is equal to -4
and
(x-4)= 0 equals 4
Answer:
171 newspapers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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:

How many newspapers should the newsstand operator order to ensure that he runs short on no more than 20% of days
The number of newspapers must be on the 100-20 = 80th percentile. So this value if X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84.




So 171 newspapers.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
You just count the dots and check the tables.
False. Since the probability of one side of the coin is 3/10, the other must be 7/10.
