MakcuM [25]2 years ago

Answer:

Hence, the answer is x>71.1515

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

n=100,\mu=70,\sigma=7

The top percentage of the students is 5\%

The  lower percentage of the students is 95\%

The lowest 95\% is the left area from the normal distribution table, the area 0.95 lies in the z-table

z=1.645       from the z- table

P(z1.645)=0.05\\z>1.645

\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{\mu}} } >1.645\\x>1.645\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} +\mu

   >1.645\times \frac{7}{\sqrt{100}} +70

   \Rightarrow x>71.1515

What is the slope of the line through (-9,6) and (-6,-9)
Juliette [100K]

\text{The slope formula:}\ m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\text{We have:}\\(-9;\ 6)\to x_1=-9;\ y_1=6\\(-6;\ -9)\to x_2=-6;\ y_2=-9\\\\\text{substitute:}\\\\m=\dfrac{-9-6}{-6-(-9)}=\dfrac{-15}{-6+9}=\dfrac{-15}{3}=-5

Answer: m = -5

1.What is the y-intercept of the plane whose equation is 4x + 5y – z = 20?
Katena32 [7]

In case of plane, for y intercept, x and z are o .

So we will get

4(0)+5y-0=20

5y=20

Dividing both sides by 5

y = 4

So the y intercept is (0,4,0).

In second question, x intercept is 1, y intercept is -1 and z intercept is 2 .

So the correct option is the third equation , that is x-y+2z=4 .

Why are (1,2) and(2,1) not equal ordered pair? ​
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

The pairs ( 1 , 2 ) and ( 2 , 1 ) are not equal because their respective elements are not equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pair of elements which are in specific order is called an ordered pair. The pair ( 1 , 2 ) is not same as the pair ( 2 , 1 ). In the pair ( 1 , 2 ) 1 is in the first position and 2 is in the second position. In the pair ( 2 , 1 ), 2 is in the first position and 1 is in the second position.

Two ordered pairs ( a , b ) and (c , d ) are said to be equal if a = c and b = d. We write ( a , b ) = ( c , d ).

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
