If the solution exists, y=y....
3x+2=-x/4+1 make everything have a common denominator of 4...
(12x+8)/4=(-x+4)/4 now multiply both sides by 4
12x+8=4-x add x to both sides
13x+8=4 subtract 8 from both sides
13x=-4 divide both sides by 13
x=-4/13
x≈-0.31 and the only pair in your choices having an x value close to that is:
(-0.3, 1.1)
That's a question that can't be answered here.
I know how to do algebra, and I could write how to do it for you. But If I start writing and keep going until I explain to you how to do algebra, do you know what you'd have here ? You'd have an algebra book, just like the one you use in school.
If it were possible to explain algebra in a few paragraphs, or even in a few pages, then that's what you would use in school to learn it, instead of a book. And if it could be explained in a few minutes, or even in a few hours, then teacher would explain it all at the beginning of the year, and then you'd have the rest of the whole year to just practice it and get really good at it.
You use a book, and you spend a whole year learning it, because that's what it takes.
I shall now reveal to you the secret hidden sneaky tricks of how to do algebra:
(If you want to print this and stick it on the refrigerator, you have my full permission.
This method is so good that it even works with a lot of other subjects too.)
-- Go to class every day.
-- As you're sitting down, turn off your cellphone and wrap up your gum.
-- Stay awake in class.
-- Listen to what the teacher is saying. In your mind, make pictures of what it means.
-- When you get a homework assignment, <em>write it down</em>.
-- Make a place at home where you always do your homework. Make it a place where other people aren't running through. While you're there doing homework, turn off the radio and your cellphone, and take the buds out of your ears.
-- <em>On the same day</em> you get the homework assignment, when you're home, sit down in the place where you do your homework, and work ALL of the examples in the assignment. (That may mean that you can't go out that night.)
-- If there's something you just don't get, ask the teacher for a time to sit down together and work on it together until you understand it. That's part of the teacher's job.
If you're building a brick house, and you leave out some bricks near the bottom and keep stacking bricks above the hole, the part above the hole could come crashing down any minute, and there's no way to go back later and try and fill in the hole.
Algebra is exactly like that. Each day or two, in class and in homework, you have to use what you learned in the<em> <u>last</u></em> day or two. If there's a hole there, it's awfully tough to build anything on top of it. If you don't understand how to do something, or you blow off a couple of homeworks, there is <em>no way</em> to go back and catch up <em>later</em>.
Follow my method, and algebra is <em>easy</em> !
Answer:
A task time of 177.125s qualify individuals for such training.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean 
and standard deviation 
, the zscore of a measure X is given by
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. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
A distribution that can be approximated by a normal distribution with a mean value of 145 sec and a standard deviation of 25 sec, so 
.
The fastest 10% are to be given advanced training. What task times qualify individuals for such training?
This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.90.
Z has a pvalue of 0.90 when it is between 1.28 and 1.29. So we want to find X when 
.
So
A task time of 177.125s qualify individuals for such training.
Well there are 4 quarts to a gallon and 4 / 12 = 3 so she has 3 gallons so she needs 1 gallon and 2 quarts
so the answer is 1Gallon and 2Quarts
