Answer:

$x \approx 2.18$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3(x+4.5x)=36$

we can use the distributive property and get

$3(x)+3(4.5x)=36\\\\3x+13.5x=36\\\\$

and we can add like terms

$(3+13.5)x=36\\\\16.5x=36$

and know we divide both sides by 16.5

$16.5x*(\frac{1}{16.5})=36*(\frac{1}{16.5})\\\\x=\frac{36}{16.5}$

and doing the dvision we get that

$x\approx 2.18$

5. What is the multiple zero and multiplicity of f(x) = (x + 4)(x - 2)(x + 4)(x + 4)?

natali 33 [55]

The zeros of this functions are -4, 2, -4, and -4.

-4 is a multiple zero and has multiplicity 3.

2 is a zero. I would call it a simple zero, since it's only a zero once (AKA has multiplicity of 1).

Is this a "pick one answer" or "pick all correct answers"?

The heights of adult males in the United States are approximately normally distributed. The mean height is 70 inches (5 feet 10

steposvetlana [31]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the probability is 0.16.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

In a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

It 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, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are given by, respectively, $\mu = 70, \sigma = 3$ .

The proportion of students between 45 and 67 inches is the p-value of Z when <u>X = 67 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 45</u>, hence:

X = 67:

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

$Z = \frac{67 - 70}{3}$

Z = -1

Z = -1 has a p-value of 0.16.

X = 45:

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

$Z = \frac{45 - 70}{3}$

Z = -8.3

Z = -8.3 has a p-value of 0.

0.16 - 0 = 0.16

The probability is 0.16.

The histogram shows the heights in meters of trees in a certain section of a park. How many trees are less than 20 meters tall?

scoray [572]

Answer:

The histogram shows the heights in meters of trees in a certain section of a park.

How many trees are less than 20 meters tall?

Answer: From the given histogram, we clearly see:

There is 1 tree with height less than 8 meters

There are 1 + 2 = 3 trees with height less than 12 meters

There are 3 + 2 = 5 trees with height less than 16 meters

There are 5 + 4 =9 trees with height less than 20 meters.

Therefore, the correct option is B. 9
