Mean weight of the bag of pears = u = 8 pounds
Standard deviation = s = 0.5 pounds
We have to find what percentage of bags of pears will weigh more than 8.25 pounds. This can be done using the z score.
We have to convert x = 8.25 to z scores, which will be:
z score = 0.5From the z table, the probability of z score being greater than 0.5 is 0.3085
Therefore, the probability of a bag to weigh more than 8.25 pounds is 0.3085
Thus 0.3085 or 31% (rounded to nearest integer) of bags of pears will have weight more than 8.25 pounds at the local market.
You got the b part wrong. It would be 4B+4C/2=4D
Answer: Choice D) x can be anything but 13
========================================================
Explanation:
The domain of
is the same as the domain of g(x)
The domain for g(x) is
saying we can plug in any number we want as long as it's not 13. This is to avoid dividing by zero. The same domain applies for the composite function because

and we can see that we still need to kick out x = 13 from the domain to avoid the division by zero issue.
X^2-4x=-2x+24
x^2-2x=24
x^2-2x-24=0
(x-6)(x+4)
Proof:
-6+4=-2
-6*4=-24
Final answer: (x-6)(x+4)
