Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A) 5x = 3(x - 2.5)
-----------------------
B)
Distribute
5x = 3x - 7.5
Subtract 3x from both sides
2x = -7.5
Divde both sides by 2
x = -3.75
-----------------------
C)
5 * (-3.75) = 3(-3.75 - 2.5)
-18.75 = -18.75
D)
Tanya paid –$3.75 for each of 5 items
Tony paid –$6.25 for each of 3 items
There seems to be an error in the question since the cost of items is negative
Tony bought fewer items and paid less for each.
Answer:
x=0.25 or -1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
120x + 21 = -9
120x = -30 (-21 from both sides of equation)
x = -0.25 or -1/4 (divide 120 from both sides of equation)
Answer:28.26
Step-by-step explanation:9 x 3.14
Answer: This should be under the subject English or Art, not math.
Step-by-step explanation: Go motivation, if a little rude.
The formula to calculate the z-score of a certain value is:
z = (x - (mean))/(standard deviation)
In this example, the x-value is 450, the S.D. is 100, and the mean is 500.
So, substitute these values into the formula.
z = (450-(500))/100
z=-50/100
z=-0.5
Therefore, the z-score is -0.5.
