Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1) Multiple 7 by w, which w is 10. So, you do 7 x 10.

Now, you should have 70 - 54.

Step 2) Do 70 - 54.

Your answer should be 16.

A student solves the following equation and

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Since the equation is undefined for -2

Therefore, NO SOLUTION for the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

$\frac{3}{a+2}-6\cdot \frac{a}{-4+a^2}=\frac{1}{a-2}$

$\frac{3}{a+2}-\frac{6a}{-4+a^2}=\frac{1}{a-2}$

$\mathrm{Find\:Least\:Common\:Multiplier\:of\:}a+2,\:-4+a^2,\:a-2:\quad \left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:by\:LCM=}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)$

$\frac{3}{a+2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)-\frac{6a}{-4+a^2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)=\frac{1}{a-2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)$

$\frac{3}{a+2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right):\quad 3\left(a-2\right)$

$-\frac{6a}{-4+a^2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right):\quad -6a$

$\frac{1}{a-2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right):\quad a+2$

so equation becomes

$3\left(a-2\right)-6a=a+2$

$-3a-6=a+2$

$-3a-6+6=a+2+6$

$-4a=8$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-4$

$\frac{-4a}{-4}=\frac{8}{-4}$

$a=-2$

$\mathrm{Verify\:Solutions}$

$\mathrm{Take\:the\:denominator\left(s\right)\:of\:}\frac{3}{a+2}-6\frac{a}{-4+a^2}-\frac{1}{a-2}\mathrm{\:and\:compare\:to\:zero}$

$\mathrm{Solve\:}\:a+2=0:\quad a=-2$

$\mathrm{Solve\:}\:-4+a^2=0:\quad a=2,\:a=-2$

$\mathrm{Solve\:}\:a-2=0:\quad a=2$

So the following points are undefined

$a=-2,\:a=2$

Since the equation is undefined for -2

Therefore, NO SOLUTION for the given equation.

In the last quarter of 2007, a group of 64 mutual funds had a mean return of 2.2 2.2% with a standard deviation of 6.3 6.3%.

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

a) 0.625; b) 16.879; c) 8.442

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a normal distribution, we want the value of the mean, μ: 2.2; and the value of the standard deviation, σ: 6.3.

For the 40th percentile, we look in a z chart. We want to find the value as close to 0.40 as we can get; this is 0.4013, and it corresponds to a z score of z = -0.25.

Our formula for a z score is $z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ . Using our values, we have

-0.25 = (X-2.2)/6.3

Multiply both sides by 6.3:

6.3(-0.25) = X-2.2

-1.575 = X-2.2

Add 2.2 to each side:

-1.575+2.2 = X-2.2+2.2

0.625 = X

For the 99th percentile, the value in the z chart closest to 0.99 is 0.9901, which corresponds to a z score of z = 2.33:

2.33 = (X-2.2)/6.3

Multiply both sides by 6.3:

6.3(2.33) = X-2.2

14.679 = X-2.2

Add 2.2 to each side:

14.679+2.2 = X-2.2+2.2

16.879 = X

For the IQR, we find the values for the 75th percentile (Q3) and the 25th percentile (Q1). The value in a z chart closest to 0.75 is 0.7486, which corresponds to a z score of z = 0.67:

0.67 = (X-2.2)/6.3

Multiply both sides by 6.3:

6.3(0.67) = X-2.2

4.221 = X-2.2

Add 2.2 to each side:

4.221+2.2 = X-2.2+2.2

6.421 = X

The value in a z chart closest to 0.25 is 0.2514, which corresponds to a z score of z = -0.67:

-0.67 = (X-2.2)/6.3

Multiply both sides by 6.3:

6.3(-0.67) = X-2.2

-4.221 = X-2.2

Add 2.2 to each side:

-4.221+2.2 = X-2.2+2.2

-2.021 = X

This makes the interquartile range

6.421--2.021 = 8.442
