Please Help!! Use the graph of the equation to solve: -2x - 5 = 3

Mathematics
1 answer:
abruzzese [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - 5 = 3

Add 5 to both sides

-2x - 5 + 5 = 3 + 5

Simplify

-2x = 8

Divide both sides by -2

-2x/-2 = 8/-2

Simplify

x = -4

A person must score in the upper 8% of the population on an IQ test to qualify for membership in MENSA, the international high-I
Cloud [144]

Answer:

A person must get an IQ score of at least 138.885 to qualify.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using 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.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 115, \sigma = 17

(a). [7pts] What IQ score must a person get to qualify

Top 8%, so at least the 100-8 = 92th percentile.

Scores of X and higher, in which X is found when Z has a pvalue of 0.92. So X when Z = 1.405.

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

1.405 = \frac{X - 115}{17}

X - 115 = 17*1.405

X = 138.885

A person must get an IQ score of at least 138.885 to qualify.

Rounding 2.199. The tenths digit is 1, which is 4 or less, so you will round down. Re-write 2.199 without the decimal places: 2 . So 2.199 rounds to 2.

Find the volume of the cone of with a height of 6cm and a diameter of the base or 6cm
Ainat [17]

Answer:

The volume of cone v= 113.04 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula used to find volume of cone is:

v= \pi * r^2 * \frac{h}{3}

where r is the radius and h is the height of cone.

In the given question we are given:

height h= 6 cm

diameter d= 6 cm

We know radius r = d/2 = 6/2 = 3 cm

so, volume will be:

v= \pi * 6^2 * \frac{3}{3}

v= \pi * 36

v=113.04

So, the volume of cone v= 113.04 cm³ given height h= 6cm and radius r= 3cm

TrianglesABC and DEF are <br> Similar<br> Not similar
puteri [66]

Answer:

Similar

Step-by-step explanation:

We can say that the triangles are similar by looking at the angle measurements

Angle B = 35

Angle F = 55

Both angles A and D = 90 because these are right triangles

We can say the measure of angle E = 35 because the sum of angles in a triangle equal to 180

Same rule applies to angle C
