Slope is -1/2. The y value decreases one every 2 increases in the x value. The y-intercept is y = 2. The equation is Y = -1/2x + 2
Answer: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is x + 6, with a remainder of -4.
Work is shown using synthetic division.
You're going to want to take the total, which is $353.00 and subtract the initial cost, which is $84.00, the number now should be $269. Using that total divide it by $68.00, there you should find your answer of about 4 hours. The precise answer is 3.99588235. But you would round that to 4 hours.
Approximately 65% of the distribution lies within one standard deviation of the mean, which is to say,
P(72 ≤ x ≤ 86) ≈ 0.65
Normal distributions are symmetric, so the percentage of values one standard deviation below the mean is equal to the percentage of values one standard deviation above the mean.
P(72 ≤ x ≤ 79) = P(79 ≤ x ≤ 86)
but since the sum of these make up P(72 ≤ x ≤ 86), we find
P(72 ≤ x ≤ 79) ≈ 0.65/2 = 0.325
Also due to symmetry, exactly half of the distribution lies to either side of the mean; namely,
P(x ≥ 79) = 0.5
It follows that
P(x ≥ 72) = P(72 ≤ x ≤ 79) + P(79 ≤ x)
P(x ≥ 72) = 0.325 + 0.5
P(x ≥ 72) = 0.825 ≈ 0.84
