Yeah I’m pretty sure it is a rational number
Let list the data in ascending order 100, 100, 105, 113, 129, 132, 146, 152, 176, 200
There are ten numbers so the thirtieth percentile would be the .3 * 10
= 3rd number, ordered from smallest to largest.
so the third number, the thirtieth percentile, is 105
Hey there!☺
In our first step, we will simplify both sides of the equation:
Now subtract 4 from both sides:
In our last step, we will divide both sides by -2:
x=-7/2 is your answer.
Hope this helps!☺
Use substitution.
2p + 3(2p) = 680
2p + 6p = 680
8p = 680
p = 85
Plug in.
x = 2p
x = 2(85)
x = 170
p = 85
I'm not completely sure but this is what I would do.
evaluate <span>(1/ 4)^x - 1 </span>as is. But change the (1 /2)^2x to (2/4)^2x. This way both fractions have the same denominator and in this sense, the same base. The 2/4 base still evaluates into 1/2 so nothing, mathematically, is being broken here.
