Answer:

Multiply 1/4 ; dividing 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that in each number going from left to right, it decreases by dividing 4 each time (or multiplying 1/4)

8/4 = 2 ; 2/4 = 1/2 ; (1/2)/(4) = 1/8 ; etc.

(8)(1/4) = 2 ; (2)(1/4) = 1/2 ; etc.

In a calculus​ class, Jack Hartig scored 4 on a quiz for which the class mean and standard deviation were 2.9 and 2.1​, respecti
nataly862011 [7]

Answer: Norm Alpina did better with z-score 0.79

Step-by-step explanation:

Z score formula = (raw score - mean) / standard deviation

For Jack Hartig,

score = 4; mean = 2.9; standard deviation = 2.1

Hence, Z score = (4 - 2.9) /2.1

= 1.1/2.1

= 0.52

For Norm Alpina,

score = 8; mean = 6.5; standard deviation = 1.9

Hence, Z score = (8 - 6.5) /1.9

= 1.5/1.9

= 0.79

Relatively, Norm Alpina did better for having Z score 0.79

L = $20 r = 4% t = 2 years
Annette [7]
I'm guessing this is a question about interest rates? If you have $20 that increases by 4% in one year, you need to multiply 20 by 1.04. This gets you $20.8.

If you are talking about compound interest, we will take this number and multiply it again by 1.04 for the second year. 20.8 x 1.04 = $21.632. 

If it is instead simple interest, we will simply add another .8 dollars for each year, instead of getting 4% interest compounded every year onto the new value. This gets you $21.6.
