Answer:
-3, 8
Step-by-step explanation:
-x² + 5x + 24 = 0
-x² + 8x - 3x + 24 = 0
-x(x - 8) - 3(x - 8) = 0
(-x - 3)(x - 8) = 0
x = -3 , 8
Z-scores (left tail) of a given variable X are calculated by
Z(x)=(x-mean)/standard deviation.
For Mary:
Zm(124)=(124-110)/8=14/8=1.75
For Carrie:
Zc(289)=(289-250)/20=39/20=1.95
therefore
Zc>Zm
The answer would be 19.25
Recall the formula for area of a rectangle
A = LW
A = area of rectangle
L = length of rectangle = 6
W = width of rectangle
Also, recall the formula for Perimeter of a rectangle
P = 2L + 2W
P = perimeter of rectangle = 20
We have L=6 and P=20. Use these to solve for W in the perimeter formula.
P = 2L + 2W
20 = 2(6) + 2W
20 = 12 + 2W
8 = 2W
4 = W
Thus, L = 6 and W = 4. Use these measurements to solve for A.
A = LW = 6 * 4 = 24 in^2
Answer:
a mix with a total cost of x=$73.
Of course, 30 pounds (50 pounds - 20 pounds = 30 pounds) of that mix will be the more expensive ground beef.
