Can someone please help me on this I don't understand it

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

|x-5|=2

Step-by-step explanation:

1- Find the mid value between the given numbers 3 and 7

(3+7)/2= 10/2 = 5

2- Find the difference btween the mid value (5) and any of the two given numbers (3 or 7). Use the absolute value for the difference.

|5-3|= 2 or |7-5|=2

3- Arrange the absolute equation like this:

|x-mid value from step 1|= absolute difference from step 2

|x-5|=2

4- Double check the answer with the given values 3 and 7 using our equation |x-5|=2

|3-5|=2 correct

|7-5|=2 correct

A padlock has the digits 0 through 9 arranged in a circle on its face. A combination for 0 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 8 9 this padlock is fou

stepan [7]

Answer:

The total numbers of possible combinations are 3430.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A combination for 0 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 8 9 this padlock is four digits long. Because of the internal mechanics of the lock, no pair of consecutive numbers in the combination can be the same or one place apart on the face.

Here, for the first digit we have 10 choices.

For the second digit we have 7 choices, as the digit can't be the same nor adjacent to the first digit.

For the third digit we have 7 choices, as the digit can't be the same nor adjacent to the second digit.

For the fourth digit we have 7 choices, as the digit can't be the same nor adjacent to the third digit.

So the number of choices are:

$10\times 7\times 7\times 7=10\times 7^3\\10\times 343=3430$

Hence, the total numbers of possible combinations are 3430.

The average student loan debt for college graduates is $25,150.

Aleks04 [339]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

a) $X \approx N(25150, 12050)$

b) There is a 0.5859 = 58.59% probability that the college graduate has between $14,200 and $33,950 in student loan debt.

c) Low: $23,519.65, High: $26,580.35.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ is given by:

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

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.

Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

$\mu = 25150, \sigma = 12050$ .

Hence the distribution of X can be described as follows:

$X \approx N(25150, 12050)$

The probability that the college graduate has between $14,200 and $33,950 in student loan debt is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 33950 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 14200</u>, hence:

X = 33950:

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

$Z = \frac{33950 - 25150}{12050}$

Z = 0.73

Z = 0.73 has a p-value of 0.7673.

X = 14200:

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

$Z = \frac{14200 - 25150}{12050}$

Z = -0.91

Z = -0.91 has a p-value of 0.1814.

0.7673 - 0.1814 = 0.5859.

There is a 0.5859 = 58.59% probability that the college graduate has between $14,200 and $33,950 in student loan debt.

Considering the symmetry of the normal distribution, the middle 10% is between the 45th percentile(X when Z = -0.127) and the 55th percentile(X when Z = 0.127), hence:

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

$-0.127 = \frac{X - 25150}{12050}$

X - 25150 = -0.127(12050)

X = $23,519.65.

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

$0.127 = \frac{X - 25150}{12050}$

X - 25150 = 0.127(12050)

X = $26,580.35.
