Distribute on both sides
2x - 8 = 6x + 12
Move x to one side
-20 = 4x
Divide by 4
-5 = x
Question 4:
2x-3
Because we don’t know how much Fernando has that would be where we fill in the variable giving you 2x then 3 dollars less will give you the -3 therefore 2x-3
Question 5:
1/2x+7
Because we don’t know Deb’s age that would be the variable and we are looking for half of Deb’s age giving you 1/2x then the 7 years more giving you the +7 hence 1/2x+7
Answer:
There is 16.2% probability that a randomly selected individual will be between 185 and 190 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Z score
The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by:
z = (x - μ) / σ
where μ is the mean, x = raw score and σ is the standard deviation.
Given μ = 180, σ = 8.
For x = 185:
z = (185 - 180)/8 = 0.625
For x = 190:
z = (190 - 180)/8 = 1.25
P(185 < x < 190) = P(0.625 < z < 1.25) = P(z < 1.25) - P(z < 0.625) = 0.8944 - 0.7324 = 16.2%
There is 16.2% probability that a randomly selected individual will be between 185 and 190 pounds
Parallelogram area= base * perpendicular height
Assuming that the perpendicular height is 2 ft:
Area of one window = 3.25 * 2 = 6.50 square feet.
Since there are 3 identical parallelograms the Total Area = 3 * 6.5
= 19.5 square feet.
