Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

there is 15 emperor penguins...they make up 30% of all the penguins

so 30% of all the penguins is 15

let x represent all the penguins

turn ur percent to a decimal

0.30x = 15

x = 15 / 0.30

x = 50 <===== 50 total penguins

How does the multiplicity of a zero determine the behavior of the graph at that zero?

grin007 [14]

If the graph crosses the x-axis and appears almost linear at the intercept, it is a single zero. If the graph touches the x-axis and bounces off of the axis, it is a zero with even multiplicity. If the graph crosses the x-axis at a zero, it is a zero with odd multiplicity. The sum of the multiplicities is the degree

The scores on a psychology exam were normally distributed with a mean of 60 and a standard deviation of 10 . A failing grade on

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The cutoff for a failing score was 40,

Approximately 2.3% of the students failed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Mean, $\mu=60$

Standard deviation, $\sigma=10$

Let x represents the cutoff for a failing score,

Thus, according to the question,

$\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=-2$

$\frac{x-60}{10}=-2$

$x-60=-20$

$x=-20+60$

$x=40$

Thus, the cutoff for a failing score is 40,

∵ P(<-2) = 0.02275 = 2.275 % ≈ 2.3 %

Hence, Approximately 2.3 % of the students failed.

Use matrices and elementary row to solve the following system:

LiRa [457]

I assume the first equation is supposed to be

$5x-3y+2z=13$

and not

$5x-3x+2x=4x=13$

As an augmented matrix, this system is given by

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&2&13\\2&-1&-3&1\\4&-2&4&12\end{array}\right]$

Multiply through row 3 by 1/2:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&2&13\\2&-1&-3&1\\2&-1&2&6\end{array}\right]$

Add -1(row 2) to row 3:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&2&13\\2&-1&-3&1\\0&0&5&5\end{array}\right]$

Multiply through row 3 by 1/5:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&2&13\\2&-1&-3&1\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]$

Add -2(row 3) to row 1, and add 3(row 3) to row 2:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&0&11\\2&-1&0&4\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]$

Add -3(row 2) to row 1:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}-1&0&0&-1\\2&-1&0&4\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]$

Multiply through row 1 by -1:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&1\\2&-1&0&4\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]$

Add -2(row 1) to row 2:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&1\\0&-1&0&2\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]$

Multipy through row 2 by -1:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&1\\0&1&0&-2\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]$

The solution to the system is then

$\boxed{x=1,y=-2,z=1}$

What is the scientific notation of 1,980,000,000

cupoosta [38]

1.98x10^9. move the decimal until you have one number in front of it. then keep the numbers that are not 0 after it. then count how many places you moved the decimal point and that's your power.
