Answer:

only the first option is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the bank balance be b

b is less than $20;

This mean ;

b < $20

So let us select the correct options;

a. This is correct

As we can see, b represents the bank balance which is the variable in the inequality

b. This is incorrect

The inequality symbol is <

c. This is incorrect

The inequality symbol needed is not 20

what is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (2, 3) ? a. x + 2y = 4 b. x + 2

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

see explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

The given blue line has a slope of m = -1/2.

The line parallel to the given line passing through point (x0,y0)=(2,3) is given by the point-slope form:

(y-y0)=m(x-x0)

substitute values

(y-3) = (-1/2)(x-2)

Expand and transpose

y = (-1/2)x + 1 + 3

y = (-1/2)x + 4 ....................(1)

We choose the second equation b. x+2y=8 and convert to slope-intercept form:

2y=-x+8

y = (-1/2)x + 4, which is exactly equation (1)

b. x+2y=8 is the correct answer.

The amount of protein that an individual must consume is different for every person. There are solid theoretical ideas that sugg

amid [387]

Answer:

The proportion of the population that have a protein requirement less than 0.60 g P • kg-1 • d-1 is 0.239, that is, 239 persons for every 1000, or simply 23.9% of them.

$\\ 0.239 =\frac{239}{1000}\;or\;23.9\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have the following information:

The distribution for protein requirement is normally distributed.
The population mean for protein requirement for adults is $\\ \mu= 0.65 gP*kg^{-1}*d^{-1}$
The population standard deviation is $\\ \sigma =0.07 gP*kg^{-1}*d^{-1}$

We have here that protein requirements in adults is normally distributed with defined parameters. The question is about the proportion of the population that has a requirement less than $\\ x = 0.60 gP*kg^{-1}*d^{-1}$ .

For answering this, we need to calculate a z-score to obtain the probability of the value x in this distribution using a standard normal table available on the Internet or on any statistics book.

<h3>z-score</h3>

A z-score is expressed as

$\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$

For the given parameters, we have:

$\\ z = \frac{0.60 - 0.65}{0.07}$

$\\ z = -0.7142857$

<h3>Determining the probability</h3>

With this value for z at hand, we need to consult a standard normal table to determine what the probability of this value is.

The value for z = -0.7142857 is telling us that the requirement for protein is below the population mean (negative sign indicates this). However, most standard normal tables give a probability that a statistic is less than z and for values greater than the mean (in other words, positive values). To overcome this, we need to take the complement of the probability given for z-score z = 0.7142857, that is, subtract from 1 this probability, which is possible because the normal distribution is symmetrical.

Tables have values for z with two decimal places, then, for z = 0.7142857, we need to rewrite it as z = 0.71. For this value, the standard normal table gives a value of P(z<0.71) = 0.76115.

Therefore, the cumulative probability for values less than x = 0.60 which corresponds to a z-score = -0.7142857 is approximately:

$\\ P(x$
