Simplifying
8a + 12b = 92

Solving
8a + 12b = 92

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-12b' to each side of the equation.
8a + 12b + -12b = 92 + -12b

Combine like terms: 12b + -12b = 0
8a + 0 = 92 + -12b
8a = 92 + -12b

Divide each side by '8'.
a = 11.5 + -1.5b

Simplifying
a = 11.5 + -1.5b

See this solution/explanation (answer is '7 meters'):

1. According to the condition 'y' means the height, and 'x' - the length from the start of the lift hill.

2. The phrase 'height of 343 meters' means y=343.

3. From the another side y=x³. If to substitute 343 instead of 'y': 343=x³, - it is possible to find the value of 'x'.

x=7 [m] - how far from the start of the lift hill...

Three potential employees took an aptitude test. Each person took a different version of the test. The scores are reported below

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Due to the higher Z-score, Demetria should be offered the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

Whichever applicant had grade with the highest z-score should be offered the job.

Demetria got a score of 85.1; this version has a mean of 61.1 and a standard deviation of 12.

For Demetria, we have $X = 85.1, \mu = 61.1, \sigma = 12$ . So
