Answer:

x = -1/2 or -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (4 - x) = 12x - 3

Distribute the -2

-8 + 2x = 12x -3

Add 3 to both sides

-5 + 2x = 12x

Subtract 2x from both sides

-5 = 10x

Divide both sides by 10

x = -1/2 or -0.5

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (4 - x) = 12x – 3

-8+2x=12x-3

+8            +8

2x=12x+5

-12x  -12x

-10x=5

/-10  /-10

= -1/2

A line with slope 3 passes through the point (0,10). What is the y-coordinate of the point on the line with x-coordinate 2?
lana [24]
Hello!

So to find the y-coordinate we need an equation for the line. The equation we can use is

y = mx + b

In this we already know m(the slope which is 3) and we can find b by plugging in the points that are given.

10 = 3(0) + b
10 = 0 + b
10 = b

So now that we've found b, we can use this in our equation

y = 4x + b

So now we can plug in the x-coordinate that we know (2) and find the y - coordinate.

y = 4(2) + 10
y = 8 + 10
y = 18

18 is your y-coordinate

X varies directly with y. If x is 16 when y is 20, find x when y is 80.
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

16/20 reduces down to 2/5

set 2/5=x/80

cross multiply 160=5x

divide 32=x

check 2/5=32/80

32/80; 16/40; 8/20; 4/10; 2/5

yay 32 is the answer good luck :)

SAT scores (out of 1600) are distributed normally with a mean of 1100 and a standard deviation of 200. Suppose a school council
fgiga [73]

Answer:

0.91517

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that SAT scores (out of 1600) are distributed normally with a mean of 1100 and a standard deviation of 200. Suppose a school council awards a certificate of excellence to all students who score at least 1350 on the SAT, and suppose we pick one of the recognized students at random.

Let A - the event passing in SAT with atleast 1500

B - getting award i.e getting atleast 1350

Required probability = P(B/A)

= P(X>1500)/P(X>1350)

X is N (1100, 200)

Corresponding Z score = \frac{x-1100}{200}

P(X>1500)/P(X>1350)\\= \frac{P(Z>2)}{P(Z>1.25} \\=\frac{0.89435}{0.97725} \\=0.91517
