Answer: y = 18/32

Step-by-step explanation: Okay the equation is xy = k

You plug in x and y.

(3)(6) = k

18 = k

To get the value of y when x = 32 you plug in 32.

Use this equation now y = k/x

Now it is y = 18/32

And that is your answer!

A is (2, -1)

The X axis will not change since A is not going left or right of (2,2). You would count down 3 spaces for the y-axis and that would land you at -1 or you could solve by subtraction.

2-3= -1

leva [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that X the time to complete a standardized exam in the BYU-Idaho Testing Center is approximately normal with a mean of 70 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes.

We have 68 rule as 2/3 of total would lie within 1 std deviation, and 95 rule as nearly 95% lie within 2 std deviations from the mean.

We have std deviation = 10

Hence 2 std deviations from the mean

= Mean ±2 std deviations

= $70$ ±20
