Answer:

\frac{1}{2} (a + 2b)(a - b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you require the expression to be factored

Given

\frac{1}{2} a² + \frac{1}{2} ab - b² ← factor out \frac{1}{2} from each term

= \frac{1}{2} (a² + ab - 2b²) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the coefficient of the b² term(- 2) which sum to give the coefficient of the ab- term (+ 1)

The factors are + 2 and - 1, since

2 × - 1 = - 2 and 2 - 1 = + 1, thus

a² + ab - 2b² = (a + 2b)(a - b) and

\frac{1}{2} a² + \frac{1}{2} ab - b² = \frac{1}{2}(a + 2b)(a - b)

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The percentle for Abby's score was the 89.62nd percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation(which is the square root of the variance) \sigma, the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Abby's mom score:

93rd percentile in the math SAT exam. In 1982 the mean score was 503 and the variance of the scores was 9604.

93rd percentile. X when Z has a pvalue of 0.93. So X when Z = 1.476.

\mu = 503, \sigma = \sqrt{9604} = 98

So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.476 = \frac{X - 503}{98}

X - 503 = 1.476*98

X = 648

Abby's score

She scored 648.

\mu = 521 \sigma = \sqrt{10201} = 101

So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{648 - 521}{101}

Z = 1.26

Z = 1.26 has a pvalue of 0.8962.

The percentle for Abby's score was the 89.62nd percentile.

Answer:

3/40

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 x 1/3 - 1/5 x 1/4 +1/4 x 1/6

(1/4 x 1/3) - (1/5 x 1/4) + (1/4 x 1/6)

1/12 - 1/20 + 1/24

1/30 + 1/24
