The sides of an equilateral triangle are same. So if one of the sides is (x-4.5), all the sides are (x-4.5). 
Let the sides are a=(x-4.5), b=(x-4.5), c=(x-4.5)

1. Perimeter(as sum) = a+b+c
                                    =  (x-4.5)+(x-4.5)+(x-4.5)
                                    = x+x+x-4.5-4.5-4.5
                                    = 3x - 13.5
2. Perimeter (as product) = 3×a    
                                     = 3×(x-4.5)
                                     = 3×x - 3×4.5
                                     = 3x - 13.5
(you can write 3×b or 3×c also as a=b=c.)

<em>Both perimeter as sum and perimeter as product are same as adding a number three times is the same as multiplying it by 3.</em>

If a distribution of test scores is normal with a mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 11, calculate the z-score for the follo
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know z- score is defined by the formula z=\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma }

Mean of the scores is given as 78 and standard deviation 11.

Now for x = 60

z=\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma }

z=\frac{60-78}{11}=\frac{(-18)}{11}=-1.64

For x = 70

z=\frac{70-78}{11}

z=\frac{(-8)}{11} =-0.73

For x = 80

z=\frac{80-78}{11}

z = 0.18

For x = 90

z=\frac{90-78}{11}

z = 1.09

For x = 60

z = -1.64

For x = 65

z=\frac{65-78}{11}

z = -1.18

For x = 70

z = -0.73

For x = 80

z = 0.18

For x = 99

z=\frac{99-78}{11}

z = 1.91

For x = 89

z=\frac{89-78}{11}

z = 1

For x = 75

z=\frac{75-78}{11}

z = -0.27
