X² - 7x + 10 = 0
Let's factor out the equation first.
x² - 7x + 10
x -2
x -5
This factoring of (x-2)(x-5) fit the equation.
(x-2)(x-5) = 0
One of the factors must equal 0 as to equal zero.
Either x - 2 = 0 or x - 5 = 0
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
The two answers are x = 2 or x = 5. Hope this helps!
Answer:
The cutoff sales level is 10.7436 millions of dollars
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:
15th percentile:
X when Z has a pvalue of 0.15. So X when Z = -1.047.
The cutoff sales level is 10.7436 millions of dollars
You subtract negative 4 and negative 12...think in a number line and you find negative 4 and then you decrease( which means you move to your left of the number line) and find negative 12 and then you count the spaces you took to get to negative 12
Answer: speed is 540 km/h
Step-by-step explanation: Lets mark speed as v.
Because distenace is same, you can mark 6 h · 900 km/h = 10 h · v
and v = 5400 km / 10 h = 540 km/h.
Or using inverse proportions : 10 h / 6 h = v / 900 km/h .
Before multiplying you turn lastproportion around :
10 h / 6 h = 600 km/ h / v ,which gives 10 v = 6 · 900 km/h
and result is same
