The area of the given parallelogram is 120.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The parameters needed to determine the area of a parallelogram are the base length and height.

The base length of this parallelogram is 15 inches while its height is 8 inches.

The area of a rectangle is determined by multiplying the base length with the height.

Step 2:

The area of the parallelogram $= (b)(h).$

Here the base length is 15 inches and the height is 8 inches.

The area of the parallelogram $=(15)(8) = 120.$

So the area of the given parallelogram is 120.

the numbers of girls in the choir is 4 times the number of boys in the choir .the total number of students is 60..how many girls

Inessa05 [86]

First, make up some variables to represent the number of Girls and Boys in the choir.

B = number of boys
G = number of girls

You know that there are 4 times as many girls in the choir as boys. Therefore, the equation you can write is:
$\frac{B}{G} = \frac{1}{4}$

If you cross-multiply, then you get the simplified equation:
G = 4B

Intuitively this makes sense since if you multiplied the number of boys in the class by 4, that would be equal to the number of girls you have.

Now, we know that the total class size is 60. So girls plus boys equals 60:
G+B = 60

To solve the equation, replace the G in this equation with the replacement you found before, 4B.
G + B = 60 -->
4B + B = 60 -->
5B = 60 -->
B = 12

However, you are trying to find the number of girls, so plug the answer back into your equation.
G + B = 60 -->
G + 12 = 60 -->
G + 12 -12 = 60 - 12 -->
G = 48

The number of girls you have is 48.

You recently took a statistics exam in a large class. The instructor tells the class that the scores were Normally distributed,

Lunna [17]

Answer:

b. the area to the right of 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are 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, which is also the area to the left of Z. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X, which is the area to the right of Z.

In this problem:

$X = 96, \mu = 72, \sigma = 12$

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

$Z = \frac{96 - 72}{12}$

$Z = 2$

Percentage who did better:

P(Z > 2), which is the area to the right of 2.

Simplify the expression

finlep [7]

Answer:

$\frac{2*x - 2}{2*x} - \frac{3*x + 2}{4*x} = \frac{x - 6}{4*x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the expression:

$\frac{2*x - 2}{2*x} - \frac{3*x + 2}{4*x}$

The first thing we want to do, is to have the same denominator in both equations, then we need to multiply the first term by (2/2), so the denominator becomes 4*x

We will get:

$(\frac{2}{2} )\frac{2*x - 2}{2*x} - \frac{3*x + 2}{4*x} = \frac{4*x - 4}{4*x} - \frac{3*x + 2}{4*x}$
