Answer:

(x+12)

Step-by-step explanation:

The middle number is 8 and the last number is -48.

Factoring means we want something like

(x+_)(x+_)

Which numbers go in the blanks?

We need two numbers that...

Add together to get 8

Multiply together to get -48

Can you think of the two numbers?

Try -4 and 12:

-4+12 = 8

-4*12 = -48

Fill in the blanks in

(x+_)(x+_)

with -4 and 12 to get...

(x-4)(x+12)

But, since (x-4) isn't an option, the answer would be (x+12)

Answer:

61,239,550

Step-by-step explanation:

We let the random variable X denote the IQ scores. This would imply that X is normal with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 17. We proceed to determine the probability that an individual chosen at random from the population would be a genius, that is;

Pr( X>140)

The next step is to evaluate the z-score associated with the IQ score of 140 by standardizing the random variable X;

$Pr(X>140)=Pr(Z>\frac{140-100}{17})=Pr(Z>2.3529)$

The area to the right of 2.3529 will be the required probability. This area from the standard normal tables is 0.009314

From a population of 6,575,000,000 the number of geniuses would be;

6,575,000,000*0.009314 = 61,239,550

Plz I need some help with 11-12 . My teacher didn’t even explain it correctly so now I’m confused.

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Step 1: Transpose everything to one side

12. x²+16x+15-10x+4=0

Step 2: Add the like terms

x² + (16x - 10x) + 15 + 4=0

x² + 6x + 19=0

Step 3: Use the quadratic formula to get the value(s) of x.

a=1 b=6 c=19

$x = \frac{ - b + - \sqrt{b {}^{2} - 4ac } {}^{} }{2a}$

therefore, x=... or x
