6/11=x/33 is not a proportion because they aren't equal to each other.
Answer:
You want to solve for x, the first thing you need to do is distribute
The 2 through the x+4 then the other 2 through the -8-x
2(x+4)= 2x+8
2(-8-x)= -16-2x
2x+8=-16-2x-2x (combine like terms on the right side)
2x+8=-16-4x (now subtract 8 from each side)
2x=-24-4x (8-8=0, -16-8=-24) (now add 4x to each side)
6x=-24 (-4x+4x=0, 2x+4x=6x), (divide each side by 6)
x=-4 (6/6=1, -24/6=-4)
x=-4
Hope this helps ;)
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
About 1.23 standard deviation above the mean
Step-by-step explanation:
From what we have here, we need to calculate the difference between the given value and the mean and divide by the standard deviation
That would be through calculating the z score as follows;
z-score = (x - mean)/SD
where x is the given value
z-score = (87-71)/13 = 1.23
Since the score is bigger than the mean, the correct choice here is that the score is about 1.23 standard deviation above the mean
