Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite of a number is its negative. For example, the opposite of 3 would be -3.

Equipped with that information, we just need to find a number that is halve of 56, since if it stays the same except that its opposite, it will be 56 away.

Draw a number line. This can be a great help in problems like these.

If we divide 56 by 2, we get 28. Now the opposite of 28 is -28.

What happens if we add 56 to -28? We get positive 28.

Now that we know the number, we need to find out what number to multiply 7 by to get that.

The simple way to do this is to divide 28 by 7.

28/7=4.

7*4=28.

The answer is 4.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The Giants had 0.1949 = 19.49% probability of winning initially.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean equal to the gambling point spread and a standard deviation of 14 points. The Patriots had been favored by 12 points.

This means that $\mu = 12, \sigma = 14$
