<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Terms/Coefficients

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-7 - 3x = 1x + 4(2 + x)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 4:                                                                                                    -7 - 3x = x + 8 + 4x
  2. Combine like terms:                                                                                       -7 - 3x = 5x + 8
  3. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 3x on both sides:                                -7 = 8x + 8
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 8 on both sides:                      -15 = 8x
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 8 on both sides:                               -15/8 = x
  6. Rewrite/Rearrange:                                                                                        x = -15/8

A set of test scores is normally distributed with a mean of 130 and a standard deviation of 30 What score is necessary to reach
nlexa [21]

Answer:

A score of 150.25 is necessary to reach the 75th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

A set of test scores is normally distributed with a mean of 130 and a standard deviation of 30.

This means that \mu = 130, \sigma = 30

What score is necessary to reach the 75th percentile?

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.

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

0.675 = \frac{X - 130}{30}

X - 130 = 0.675*30

X = 150.25

A score of 150.25 is necessary to reach the 75th percentile.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

E=x

or 110= x ( opposite angles of parallelogram are congurent)

E+D = 180 ( angles on st line)

110+D =180

D=70

D=F ( opposite angles of parallelogram are congurent)

so F=70
