***NOTE*** we are going to use the rise over run formula to solve this problem

Joe climbed a mountain with a rise of 1, 200 feet and a run of 1, 500 feet.
So, the slope would be:

1, 200 over 1, 500

which can be simplified...

1,200/1,500 = 12/15 = 4/5

When we solve for slope for Bob, we do the same thing.

He climbed a mountain with a rise 900 feet and a run of 1, 000 feet.

So, it would look like this after we simplify it...

900/1,000 = 9/10

Finally, since Bob's mountain has the largest slope (or fraction), that means that he climbed the steepest mountain.

I hope this helps! :) Let me know if you need help with anything else! I'd be happy to help you!!

A normally distributed data set has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 2. Which of the following is closest to the percent
frutty [35]

A normally distributed data set has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 2. The closest to the percent of values between -4.0 and 2.0 would be 84%.

<h3>What is the empirical rule?</h3>

According to the empirical rule, also known as the 68-95-99.7 rule, the percentage of values that lie within an interval with 68%, 95%, and 99.7% of the values lies within one, two, or three standard deviations of the mean of the distribution.

P(\mu - \sigma < X < \mu + \sigma)  \approx 68\%\\P(\mu - 2\sigma < X < \mu + 2\sigma)  \approx 95\%\\P(\mu - 3\sigma < X < \mu + 3\sigma)  \approx 99.7\%

A normally distributed data set has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 2.

Z=(x-\mu)/\sigma

P(x=-0.4)\\\\z=(-0.4-0)/2\\\\= -0.2\\\\P(x=2)\\z=(2-0)/2\\\\=1

P(-0.4 < x < 2)=p(-0.2 < z < 1)=p(-0.2 < z < 0)+p(0 < z < 1)……….(by symmetry)

=.49865+.3413

.83995…….(by (http://83995…….by) table value)

=.8400 × 100

=84%

Given f(x) = 7x – √2 and g(x) = x + √2, find (f – g)(x).
enot [183]
(f – g)(x) = 7x - √2 - (x + √2)
(f – g)(x) = 7x - √2 - x - √2
<span>(f – g)(x) = 6x - 2</span>√2
