Answer: -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio of the geometric sequence –4, 12, -36,... is -3.

12/(-4) =-3

-36/(12) = -3

They both multiply -3 for the next number.

Suppose weights of the checked baggage of airline passengers follow a nearly normal distribution with mean 46 pounds and standar
Alik [6]

Answer:

85.99% of airline passengers incur this fee.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. 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, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean 46 pounds and standard deviation 3.7 pounds.

This means that \mu = 46, \sigma = 3.7

Most airlines charge a fee for baggage that weigh in excess of 50 pounds. Determine what percent of airline passengers incur this fee.

As a proportion, this is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 50. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{50 - 46}{3.7}

Z = 1.08

Z = 1.08 has a pvalue of 0.8599

0.8599*100% = 85.99%

85.99% of airline passengers incur this fee.

— 3х – 2y = 16<br> х+ 9y = 28
Alla [95]

Answer:

x=-8

y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

first you multiply this equation (-3x-2y=16) with negativ it will be like this 3x+2y=-16

3x+2y=-16

(x+9y=28)3 _multiply with 3

3x+2y=-16

3x+27y=84

use minus(-) =3x-3x=0

=2y-27y=-25y

=-16-84=-100

the result:-25y=-100

y=4

take any simple equation and replace y with 4

x+9y=28

x+9(4)=28

x+36=28

x=28-36

x=-8

answer:x=-8,y=4

Fill in the blank with a symbol that makes this statement true: 2/5 ____ 1/2
SVEN [57.7K]
The answer is 2/5 < 1/2


Because if you do common denominator which is 10 you get 2/5 as 4/10 and 1/2 as 5/10 so therefore 1/2 is greater

HELLLPPPPP <br><br> I dont understand this!! Picture is attached!! THANKS
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

27 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Put the side of the small triangle over the same side of the large triangle.

x+8          10

------- = -------------------

2x-5          14

Using cross products

14 (x+8) = 10 (2x-5)

Distribute

14x+112 = 20x-50

Subtract 14x from each side

14x-14x +112 = 20x-50-14x

112 = 6x-50

Add 50 to each side

112+50 = 6x-50+50

162 = 6x

Divide by 6

162/6 =6x/6

27 =x
