Answer:0.8413

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean= 188, Std Dev. =20.8, Z=(x-mean)/Std Dev

P(X less than 167.2)= P(Z less than (167.2-188)/20.8)

=P(Z less than (-20.8/20.8))

=P(z less than -1)= P(Z less 1)

The value of 1 in the normal distribution table is 0.3413

So we add 0.5 to 0.3413 =0.8413

A student concluded that the solution to the equation √2x+1+3=0 is x=4.
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

I do not agree, because x=4 is an extraneous

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to solve the equation, you subtract 3 from both sides,  then square both sides, subtract one from both sides, and finally divide by 2 on both sides. This indeed gets us x=4, but we also need to check if it's an extraneous solution. To do that we simply plug in x=4 into the original equation. sqrt( 2(4) + 1 ) + 3 = 0. When we do this, we end up with ±3 + 3 = 0. I do not agree, because we don't know if the sqrt(9) is -3 or 3.

A desk was purchased at a furniture retailer for $352.08. This price includes an 8% sales tax that is paid to the state. Not inc
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

  $326.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked price plus the tax gives the final price.

  final price = (marked price) + 0.08 × (marked price)

  final price = 1.08 × (marked price) . . . . . factor out marked price

  (final price)/1.08 = marked price . . . . . . . divide by the multiplying factor

  $352.08/1.08 = marked price = $326

The marked price of the desk was $326.

The vertex of a quadratic function is (5,-6), what is the equation of the axis of symmetry in this function?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation:

f(x) = y = a*x^2 + b*x + c

Has a vertex in a point:

(h, k) such that:

h = -b/2a

and:

k = f(-b/2a)

And the axis of symmetry (this is the line that cuts the graph in two halves) is:

x = h.

In this case, the vertex is (5, -6)

Then the axis of symmetry is:

x = 5.
