Answer:
- Elanor's standardized score is 1.19
- Gerald's standardized score is 0.72
- Elanor has higher score
Step-by-step explanation:
To compare Elanor's and Gerald's math scores, we need to standardize them and calculate their z-scores.
z score can be calculated using the formula
z=
where
- M is the mean score of the exam
- s is the standard deviation of the exam
Elanor's standardized score is:
z(e) =
≈ 1.19
Gerald's standardized score is:
z(g)=
≈ 0.72
Since z(e) > z(g), Elanor has higher score
Mark and Don have to sell 11 and 59 marbles respectively.
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Lets assume, the number of marbles Mark has is 
As, Don has 4 more than 5 times the number of marbles mark has, so the number of marbles Don has 
Question says that the total number of marbles is 70. So, the equation will be...

<em>So, the number of marbles Mark has = 11 </em>
<em>and the number of marbles Don has =
</em>
Answers + Step-by-step explanation :
a) the equation should be:
7(n + 5) = 91 since you first add 5 to n and then multiply it by 7. The answer is 91 so that is on the other side of the equal sign
b) we can solve our equation to find for n, the number jim thought of
7(n + 5) = 91
I will use the distributive property.
7n + 35 = 91
Subtract 35 on both sides
7n = 56
Now divide 7 on both sides to find n
n = 8
The number Jim was thinking of was 8! this should be correct, hope this helps!
