Explanation: Just like any of your two-step equations,

in this inequality, start by isolating the x term which in this

case is -3x by subtracting 5 from both sides.

That leaves you with -3x < -24.

To get x by itself, divide both sides by -3 but watch out.

When you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a

negative number, you must switch the direction of the inequality sign.

So we have x < 8 and put your final answer in

set notation and it look like this → {x: x < 8}.

For a certain candy, 15% of the pieces are yellow, 1010% are red, 2020% are blue, 55% are green, and the rest are brown

MatroZZZ [7]

A) the probability it is brown would be 50%; the probability it is yellow or blue would be 35%; the probability it is not green is 95%; the probability it is striped is 0%.
B) the probability of all brown would be 12.5%; the probability that the third one is the first red one drawn is 8.1%; the probability that none are yellow is 61.4%; the probability that at least one is green is 14.3%.

Explanation:
A) The probability that it is brown is the percentage of brown we have. Brown is not listed, so we subtract what we are given from 100%:
100-(15+10+20+5) = 100-(50) = 50%. The probability that one drawn is yellow or blue would be the two percentages added together: 15+20 = 35%. The probability that it is not green would be the percentage of green subtracted from 100: 100-5=95%. Since there are no striped candies listed, the probability is 0%.
B) Since we have an infinite supply of candy, we will treat these as independent events. All 3 being brown is found by taking the probability that one is brown and multiplying it 3 times:
0.5*0.5*0.5 = 0.125 = 12.5%.
To find the probability that the first one that is red is the third one drawn, we take the probability that it is NOT red, 100-10 = 90% = 0.9, for the first two, and the probability that it IS red, 10% = 0.1, for the last:
0.9*0.9*0.1 = 0.081 = 8.1%.

The probability that none are yellow is found by raising the probability that the first one is not yellow, 100-15=85%=0.85, to the third power:

0.85^3 = 0.614 = 61.4%.

The probability that at least one is green is computed by subtracting 1-(probability of no green). We first find the probability that all three are NOT green:
0.95^3 = 0.857375
1-0.857375 = 0.143 = 14.3%.

Help no time plzzzz plz plz

Sav [38]

Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

<E in ∆AED ≅ <E in ∆CEB.

Both are 90°.

Side ED ≅ Side EB

Side AD ≅ Side CB.

Thus, two sides (ED and AD) and a non-included angle (<E) of ∆AED are congruent to corresponding two sides (EB and CB) and a non-included angle (<E) of ∆CEB. Therefore, by A-S-S Congruence Theorem, both triangles are congruent to each other not by SSS.

2. In your own words, explain HOW to find the standard deviation of this data set. (20 points) 3. What does the standard deviati

Ket [755]

Answer:

$\sigma = 11.28$ --- Standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for graph

Solving (a): Explain how the standard deviation is calculated.

Start by calculating the mean

To do this, we divide the sum of the products of grade and number of students by the total number of students;

i.e.

$\bar x = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}$

So, we have:

$\bar x = \frac{50 * 1 + 57 * 2 + 60 * 4 + 65 * 3 +72 *3 + 75 * 12 + 77 * 10 + 81 * 6 + 83 * 6 + 88 * 9 + 90 * 12 + 92 * 12 +95 * 2 + 99 * 4 + 100 * 5}{1 + 2 + 4 + 3 +3 + 12 + 10 + 6 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 12 +2 + 4 + 5}$

$\bar x = \frac{7531}{91}$

$\bar x = 82.76$

Next, calculate the variance using the following formula:

$\sigma^2 = \frac{\sum f(x - \bar x)^2}{\sum f}$

i.e subtract the mean from each dataset; take the squares; add up the squares; then divide the sum by the number of dataset

So, we have:

$\sigma^2 = \frac{1 * (50 - 82.76)^2 +...................+ 5 * (100 - 82.76)^2}{91}$

$\sigma^2 = \frac{11580.6816}{91}$

$\sigma^2 = 127.26$

Lastly, take the square root of the variance to get the standard deviation

$\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma^2}$

$\sigma = \sqrt{127.26}$

$\sigma = 11.28$ --- approximated

Hence, the standard deviation is approximately 11.28

Considering the calculated mean (i.e. 82.76), the standard deviation (i.e. 11.28) is small and this means that the grade of the students are close to the average grade.
