Answer:
40 Girls.
Step-by-step explanation:
80 multipled by 0.5 = 40
If you were to plan a party, you could use a linear equation. for example, the room you are renting is $500. The price for food per person is $10
15.87% of the population does not meet the minimum standards.
We use z-scores to find this probability:
z=(X-μ)/σ = (85-100)/15 = -15/15 = -1
Using a z-table (http://www.-table.com) we see that the area to the left of, less than, this is 0.1587. This is 15.87%.
Ok, so the function form is y = a * bx.
Substitute in the values:
750 = a * b5
and
48 = a * b2
Then divide the two equations:
750/ 48 = (a * b5) / (a * b2)
So:
15.625 = b3
Take the cube root of both sides:
2.5 = b
Now, substitue b into one of the equations (the one with 48 has smaller numbers and is easier to work with.)
48 = a * 2.52
Simplify.
48 = a * 6.25
Divide both sides by 6.25
7.68 = a
Now substitute in a and b to write the exponential function:
y = 7.68 * 2.5x
The answer is 3 because 3 cubed is 27
