1 meter is the same as 100 centimeters, so since Liz jumped 100 centimeters, and Alana jumped 132, Alana jumped higher.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

-1.53 , 1.53

Step-by-step explanation:

It is basically asking you to find the percentiles. so for the bottom 6.3% you would type into your calculator 2nd, VARS, invNorm, area: .063, mean: 0, and Standard Deviation: 1 which gives you -1.53.

for the upper 6.3% you have to take 1-.063=.937 to get the upper percentile. now type into your calculator 2nd, VARS, invNorm, area: .937, mean: 0, and Standard Deviation: 1 which gives you 1.53.


I hope I helped :D

Use the discriminant to determine the number of solutions and types of solutions for the quadratic equation, below. Then answer
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

A. Discriminant = 116

B. Number of solutions for the quadratic equation = 2

C. Type of solutions (circle one):Imaginary

D. Type of solutions (circle one):irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

{x}^{2}  + 8x = 13

We rewrite in standard form to get;

{x}^{2}  + 8x   - 13 = 0

The discriminant is

D =  {b}^{2}  - 4ac

where a=1, b=8, c=-13

We substitute to get:

D =  {8}^{2}  - 4 \times 1 \times  - 13

D = 64  + 52

D = 116

Since the discriminant is great than zero, we have two distinct real roots

HELP ME SOLVE THIS ASAP
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

∠B = 60°

a = 4.0 units

b = 6.9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is right angled. The sum of all angles of a triangle is equal to 180 degrees.

The 3 angles are 90, 30 , ∠B .

<em>90+30+B = 180</em>

Thus, B = 180 - 120 = 60 degrees

by trigonometry,

sin(30) = \frac{a}{8} = 0.5

a = (8)(0.5) = 4 units

Also,

cos(30) = \frac{b}{8} = 0.866

b = (8)(0.866)= 6.928

AngleRQT is a straight angle. What are m angleRQS and m angleTQS?<br><br> m angleRQS=
lara31 [8.8K]

\widehat{RQS}+\widehat{TQS}=\widehat{RQT}\\\Leftrightarrow 9x + 1 + 7x + 3 = 180 \\ \widehat{RQS}+\widehat{TQS}=\widehat{RQT}\\\Leftrightarrow 16x = 176\Leftrightarrow x = 11 \\ \Rightarrow \widehat{RQS} = 9 \times 11 + 1 = 100° \: \wedge \: \widehat{TQS} = 7 \times 11 + 3 = 80°

What is 4[2(21-17)+3]
vagabundo [1.1K]
To solve this problem, we should understand how order of operations works. Perhaps the best way to show you this would be solving the problem with all of the work clearly labeled?

=4[2(21-17)+3]    Original Problem
=4[2(4)+3]           Solved the Parentheses
=4[8+3]                Multiplied the 2 and 4
=4[11]                   Added the 8 and 3
=44                       Multiplied the 4 and 11

An easy way to remember this is PEMDAS, which is an acronym for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, and Addition/Subtraction. Although it will not apply in this scenario (because we have brackets), it will come in handy for many others like this.

Using all of the information above, we can conclude that this expression equals 4.
