Answer:

-9a + b

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, let us factor out the variable a from the terms containing the variable, and apply addition and the distributive property to simplify the terms.

-5a - 4a + b

= a ( -5 + -4 ) + b

= a ( -9 ) + b

= -9a + b

Hence, the simplified expression for -5a - 4a + b is -9a + b.

Cheers.

Suppose Z has a standard normal distribution with a mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1. The probability that Z is less than 1
solmaris [256]

Answer:

0.8749

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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:

\mu = 0, \sigma = 1

The probability that Z is less than 1.15 is:

This is the pvalue of Z = 1.15, which is 0.8749.

Sarah begins at a negative position along the x-axis. Sarah moves in the positive x-direction, turns around and then moves in th
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

he magnitude of Sarah's displacement is less than the distance she travels

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

The magnitude of her displacement is just the difference between her final and initial state, however the distance she traveled is two times the distance she moved in the positive x-direction until she turned around, since she had to move back, plus her displacement.

So:

displacement = |x_{final} -x_{initial}| \\distanceTraveled = 2|x_{return}-x_{initial}| + displacement\\

Since all the terms are positive:

x_{displacement}
