One number exceeds another by 26. the sum of the numbers is 58. what are the numbers

First number = X

second number = x +26  ( exceeds means higher so add 26)

x + x+26 = 58

combine like terms:

2x + 26 = 58
 subtract 26 from each side:

2x = 58-26

2x = 32

divide both sides by 2:
x = 32/2
x = 16

first number is 16
second number = 16+26 = 42

A normal distribution curve, where x = 70 and σ = 15, was created by a teacher using her students’ grades. What information abou
alexira [117]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

We can conclude that 68% of the scores were between 55 and 85; 95% of the scores were between 40 and 100; and 99.7% of the scores were between 25 and 100.

Explanation:

The empirical rule tells us that in a normal curve, 68% of data lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean; 95% of data lie within 2 standard deviations of the mean; and 99.7% of data lie within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

The mean is 70 and the standard deviation is 15. This means 1 standard deviation below the mean is 70-15 = 55 and one standard deviation above the mean is 70+15 = 85. 68% of data will fall between these two scores.

2 standard deviations below the mean is 70-15(2) = 40 and two standard deviations above the mean is 70+15(2) = 100. 95% of data will fall between these two scores.

3 standard deviations below the mean is 70-15(3) = 25 and three standard deviations above the mean is 70+15(3) = 115. However, a student cannot score above 100%; this means 99.7% of data fall between 25 and 100.

Write the coordinate of the intercept
Basile [38]

Answer:

m = 2/3

y-intercept: 2

Explanation:

First convert this equation into standard form by distributing the 6y and -4x from the coefficient of 2, and then putting the variables in order.

This equation should be in the form: Ax + By = C (Standard form)

y = -Ax/B + C/B : y = mx + b (Slope intercept form)

2(6y - 4x) = 24 → 12y - 8x = 24

→ -8x + 12y = 24 → -8x = -12y + 24 → 8x = 12y - 24 → <em>8x - 12y = -24</em>

<u>8</u>x <u>- 12</u>y = <u>-24</u>

| | |

A B C

Once you have standard form, you are ready to convert this into slope intercept by isolating the y completely.

8x - 12y = -24

-8x -8x

(First through the subtraction property of equality, remove 8x from both sides so that -12y is by itself on the left)

-12y = -8x - 24

×-1 ×-1 ×-1

(Through the identity property of negative 1, remove the negative sign from all of the numbers because a negative times a negative is a positive)

12y = 8x + 24

(Lastly, through the division property of equality, divide all sides by 12 because it is the coefficient of y, which will solve for the variable)
