Please help! Find the approximate location of the decimal form of 2/3 on the number line below

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be C because 2/3 as a decimal is 0.6666 and it goes on forever. D is at 0.75 which is too big and a and b are less than 0.5, so C is the correct answer.

The distribution of scores on a recent test closely followed a Normal Distribution with a mean of 22 points and a standard devia

maksim [4K]

6.68% of the students scored at least 19 points on this test while the 85 percentile has a test score of 24.08 points

The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\where\ \mu=mean.\sigma=standard\ deviation, x=raw\ score\\\\Given\ that\ mean(\mu)=22,standard \ deviation (\sigma)=2\\\\For\ x>19:\\\\z=\frac{22-19}{2}=1.5$

P(x > 19) = P(z > 1.5) = 1 - P(z < 1.5) = 1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

6.68% of the students scored at least 19 points on this test

b) 85 percentile corresponds to a z score of 1.04

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\1.04 =\frac{x-22}{2} \\\\2.08=x-22\\\\x=24.08$

The 85 percentile has a test score of 24.08

Determine the discount between the point(-4,2) and the line 4y=3×+6

frozen [14]

Answer:

d = 14/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The point (-4,2) means that;

At x = -4, y = 2

Now general form of a linear equation is;

Ax + By + C = 0

We are given;

4y = 3x + 6

Rearranging to the form of a linear equation gives;

3x - 4y + 6 = 0

Thus, A = 3, B = -4 and C = 6

Thus, at point (-4,2), distance between them is;

d = (3(-4) - 4(2) + 6)/√(3² + (-4)²)

d = -14/5

We will take the absolute value.

Thus; d = 14/5

HIGHSCHOOL ALGEBRA!!!!! PLS HELP :) <br> Find the root of the equation: (6x–1)(6x+1) - 4x(9x+2) = −1

My name is Ann [436]

(6x–1)(6x+1) - 4x(9x+2) = −1

Simplify the left side:

36x^2-1 -36x^2-8x = -1

Combine like terms:

-1 -8x = -1

Add 1 to both sides:

-8x = 0

Divide both sides by -8:

x = 0 / -8

x = 0

The root is 0

Radioactive Waste The rate at which radioactive waste is entering the atmosphere at time t is decreasing and is given by Pe^-kt,

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

$\displaystyle{\int^{\infty}_0 {50e^{-0.04t}}\, dt}=1250$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$T =\displaystyle{\int^{\infty}_0 {Pe^{-kt}} \, dt}$

where,

T = total amount of waste

P = 50, the initial rate

k = 0.04

t = time

$T =\displaystyle{\int^{\infty}_0 {50e^{-0.04t}} \, dt}$

now we need to solve this integral!

$T =\displaystyle{50\int^{\infty}_0 {e^{-0.04t}} \, dt}$

$T = \left|50\left(\dfrac{e^{-0.04t}}{-0.04}\right)\right|^{\infty}_0$

$T = \left|-1250e^{-0.04t}\right|^{\infty}_0$

$T = (-1250e^{-0.04(\infty)})-(-1250e^{-0.04(0)})$

when any number has a power of negative infinity it is 0. because: $a^-{\infty} = \dfrac{1}{a^{\infty}} = \dfrac{1}{\infty} = 0$ , like something being divided by a very large number!

$T = (-1250(0))-(-1250e^0)$

$T = 1250$

this is the total amount of waste
