3x-11=17-4x add 4x to both sides
7x-11=17 add 11 to both sides
7x=28 divide both sides by 7
x=4
The top 15% (85th percentile) is the cutoff value

such that

where

is the corresponding cutoff for the standardized normal distribution. We have

, and so
<span>A. 0.1
The residual is the difference between the observed value and the predicted value for a data point. You obtain it by subtracting the predicted value from the observed value. So the predicted value is:
y = -0.2x + 1.9
y = -0.2*5 + 1.9
y = -1 + 1.9
y = 0.9
Therefore the residual is:
r = 1 - 0.9
r = 0.1
And the value of 0.1 matches option "A".</span>
Answer:
n has no value.
There is no solution to this equation
Step-by-step explanation:
let n be the number
In pieces:
sum of the number and 1: (n + 1)
8 times the sum: 8(n + 1)
-7 times a number: -7n
sum of -7 times and...: -7n + 8(n + 1)
number minus 7: n - 7
the same as: =
All together:
-7n + 8(n + 1) = n - 7
-7n + 8(n+1)=n-7
-7n + 8n+8=n-7
0=-15
