Using the empirical rule 68% would fall within one standard deviation of the mean.

The standard deviation is given as 2 inches and the mean is 49 inches.

Since it is only one standard deviation find the lower number by subtracting the standard deviation from the mean and find the higher number by adding the standard deviation to the mean.

49 - 2 = 47

49 + 2 = 51


68% would be between 47 inches and 51 inches tall.

If andy pays 450 of the rent and mo pays 1/2 of the rent and charlie pays 25percent of the rent what is the overall rent
scoray [572]

Answer:

$1,800

Step-by-step explanation:

If Mo pays 1/2 of the rent then he is paying 50%. Charlie is paying another 25%. This leaves the remaining 25% that Andy pays. Since Andy's payment amount is 450 then that means that 450 is equal to 25% of the total rent. Therefore, we simply need to multiply this amount by 4 to get the 100% of the overall rent.

450 * 4 = $1,800

Finally, we can see that the total rent amount is $1,800

What are the solutions for the following system of equations?
Alenkasestr [34]

Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.

Point Form:

(0,7),(-13,-97)

Equation Form:

x=0,y=7\\x=-13,y=-97

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    y-(8*x+7)=0

Equation of a Straight Line

Solve   y-8x-7  = 0

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.'

n this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  y-8x-7  = 0 and calculate its properties

Graph of a Straight Line :

 

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is 7/1 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y= 7.00000

 y-intercept = 7/1  =  7.00000

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is 7/-8 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=-0.87500

 x-intercept = 7/-8  = -0.87500

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is 7.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 23.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 23.000 - 7.000 = 16.000 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

   Slope     = 16.000/2.000 =  8.000

Geometric figure: Straight Line

 Slope = 16.000/2.000 = 8.000

 x-intercept = 7/-8 = -0.87500

 y-intercept = 7/1 = 7.00000

Pull out like factors :

  -x2 - 5x - 7  =   -1 • (x2 + 5x + 7)

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.2     Factoring  x2 + 5x + 7

The first term is,  x2  its coefficient is  1 .

The middle term is,  +5x  its coefficient is  5 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +7

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • 7 = 7

Step-2 : Find two factors of  7  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   5 .

     -7    +    -1    =    -8

     -1    +    -7    =    -8

     1    +    7    =    8

     7    +    1    =    8

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Find the Vertex of   y = -x2-5x-7

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex .   Our parabola opens down and accordingly has a highest point (AKA absolute maximum) .    We know this even before plotting  "y"  because the coefficient of the first term, -1 , is negative (smaller than zero).

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two  x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the  x -coordinate of the vertex is given by  -B/(2A) . In our case the  x  coordinate is  -2.5000  

Plugging into the parabola formula  -2.5000  for  x  we can calculate the  y -coordinate :

 y = -1.0 * -2.50 * -2.50 - 5.0 * -2.50 - 7.0

or   y = -0.750

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for :  y = -x2-5x-7

Axis of Symmetry (dashed)  {x}={-2.50}

Vertex at  {x,y} = {-2.50,-0.75}

Function has no real roots

Solve Quadratic Equation by Completing The Square

3.2     Solving   -x2-5x-7 = 0 by Completing The Square .

Multiply both sides of the equation by  (-1)  to obtain positive coefficient for the first term:

x2+5x+7 = 0  Subtract  7  from both side of the equation :

  x2+5x = -7

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of  x , which is  5 , divide by two, giving  5/2 , and finally square it giving  25/4

Add  25/4  to both sides of the equation :

 On the right hand side we have :

  -7  +  25/4    or,  (-7/1)+(25/4)

 The common denominator of the two fractions is  4   Adding  (-28/4)+(25/4)  gives  -3/4

 So adding to both sides we finally get :

  x2+5x+(25/4) = -3/4

Adding  25/4  has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

  x2+5x+(25/4)  =

  (x+(5/2)) • (x+(5/2))  =

 (x+(5/2))2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

  x2+5x+(25/4) = -3/4 and

  x2+5x+(25/4) = (x+(5/2))2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

  (x+(5/2))2 = -3/4

We'll refer to this Equation as  Eq. #3.2.1  

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

  (x+(5/2))2   is

  (x+(5/2))2/2 =

 (x+(5/2))1 =

  x+(5/2)
