Answer:
i. 
+ 26x + 144 - 299 = 0
ii. x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the figure = 299 cm²
The figure has a shape of a rectangle, so that;
Area of rectangle = length x width
length of the figure = 18 + x
width of the figure = 8 + x
Area of the figure = (18 + x) x (8 + x)
299 = (18 + x) x (8 + x)
299 = + 26x + 144
+ 26x + 144 - 299 = 0
+ 26x - 155 = 0
applying the trigonometric formula;
x = (-b ± 
) ÷ 2a
= (-26 ± 
) ÷ 2
= (-26 ± 
) ÷ 2
= (-26 ± 
) ÷ 2
= (-26 ± 36) ÷ 2
x = (-26 + 36) ÷ 2 OR x = (-26 -36) ÷ 2
= 10 ÷ 2 OR -62 ÷ 2
= 5 OR -31
Thus, x = 5
Answer:40,000
Step-by-step explanation: if the last 4 digits are 5,000 or grater round up to the next number if it’s less keep the number the same
Since we want just the top 20% applicants and the data is normally distributed, we can use a z-score table to check the z-score that gives this percentage.
The z-score table usually shows the percentage for the values below a certain z-score, but since the whole distribution accounts to 100%, we can do the following.
We want a z* such that:
But, to use a value that is in a z-score table, we do the following:
So, we want a z-score that give a percentage of 80% for the value below it.
Using the z-score table or a z-score calculator, we can see that:
![\begin{gathered} P(zNow that we have the z-score cutoff, we can convert it to the score cutoff by using:[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\Longrightarrow x=z\sigma+\mu](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20P%28zNow%20that%20we%20have%20the%20z-score%20cutoff%2C%20we%20can%20convert%20it%20to%20the%20score%20cutoff%20by%20using%3A%5Btex%5Dz%3D%5Cfrac%7Bx-%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D%5CLongrightarrow%20x%3Dz%5Csigma%2B%5Cmu)
Where z is the z-score we have, μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation, so:
so, the cutoff score is approximately 72.
[(100-15)/100 * $3]
= $2.55
$5.35 - $2.55
= $2.80 |80% paper|
80/100 = 2.80/x
4/5 = 2.80/x
4x = 14
x = 3.5
Original price of the paper = $3.50
