Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf z=2.2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The z-score tells us how many standard deviations a value is away from the mean.

The formula is:

$z=\frac{x- \overline{x}}{s}$

where x is the value, $\overline {x}$ is the mean, and s is the standard deviation.

We want to find the z-score for the score of an 83, the mean is 72, and the standard deviation is 5.

$x=83 \\\overline {x}= 72 \\s=5$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$z=\frac{83-72}{5}$

Solve the numerator.

$z=\frac{11}{5}$

Divide.

$z=2.2$

The z-score is 2.2, which means the score of 83 is 2.2 standard deviations above the mean.

saveliy_v [14]

The problem can be translated into an equation that is something like 4/5 + 3/x = 1/2
we cannot have x equal to zero because the number can be infinite.
So the LCD here is 10x, so multiply both sides by that to get:
8x + 30 = 5x
Subtract 5x and 30 from both sides:
3x = -30
divide:
x = -10
The solution isn't zero so there is a solution.
