Answer:

(1) Commutative property

(2) Distributive property/Definition of addition

(3) Compatibility with addition/Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property

(4) Compatibility with multiplication/Associative property/Definition of division/Existence of additive inverse/Commutative and modulative properties/Result

Step-by-step explanation:

We proceed to solve algebraically and explain each step:

1) $4\cdot x +1 +x + 3 = -11$ GIven

2) $4\cdot x +x +1 + 3 = -11$ Commutative property

3) $(4+1)\cdot x +4 = -11$ Distributive property/Definition of addition

4) $5\cdot x +4 = -11$ Definition of addition

5) $5\cdot x +4 -4 = -11-4$ Compatibility with addition

6) $5\cdot x = -15$ Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property

7) $\frac{1}{5}\cdot (5\cdot x)= \frac{1}{5}\cdot (-15)$ Compatibility with multiplication

8) $x = - 3$ Associative property/Definition of division/Existence of additive inverse/Commutative and modulative properties/Result

Hence, we have the following answers:

(1) Commutative property

(2) Distributive property/Definition of addition

(3) Compatibility with addition/Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property

(4) Compatibility with multiplication/Associative property/Definition of division/Existence of additive inverse/Commutative and modulative properties/Result

a data set has a mean of 68 and standard deviation of 6. An element in this set is 51. What is z-score for 51? Round your answer

gogolik [260]

z = -2.83

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Mean, μ = 68

Standard deviation, σ = 6

Data point, x = 51

Z score, z = ?

We know:

$z = \frac{data point - mean}{standard deviation} \\\\z = \frac{x - u}{p}$

Substituting the value we get:

$z = \frac{51-68}{6} \\\\z = -2.83$

A negative z score says that the data point is below average.

Please help fast! Thanks a lot

professor190 [17]

Answer:

92.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say, first number = x

Second number = 3x+7

Total = 49

(x)+(3x+7)= 49

4x+7 = 49

4x = 42

x = 42/4

x= 10.5

3x+7 = 3(10.5)+7 = 92.5

Hope this helps!!
