Y = 1/4x + 5....multiply everything by 4 to get rid of the fraction
4y = x + 20...now subtract 20 from both sides
4y - 20 = x <==
Answers:
The z scores are approximately:
- Care of Magical Creatures: z = 0.333
- Defense Against the Dark Arts: z = 0.583
- Transfiguration: z = -0.263
- Potions: z = -0.533
From those scores, we can say:
- Best grade = Defense Against the Dark Arts
- Worst grade = Potions
=====================================================
Further Explanation:
We'll need to convert each given score to a corresponding standardized z score.
The formula to use is
z = (x - mu)/sigma
where,
- x = given grade for each class
- mu = mean
- sigma = standard deviation
Let's find the z score for the Care of Magical Creatures class
z = (x - mu)/sigma
z = (3.80 - 3.75)/(0.15)
z = 0.333 approximately
Repeat this process for the Defense Against the Dark Arts score.
z = (x - mu)/sigma
z = (3.60 - 3.25)/(0.60)
z = 0.583 approximately
And for the Transfiguration class as well
z = (x - mu)/sigma
z = (3.10 - 3.20)/(0.38)
z = -0.263 approximately
The negative z score means his grade below the average, whereas earlier the other scores were above the average since he got positive z scores.
Now do the final class (Potions) to get this z score
z = (x - mu)/sigma
z = (2.50 - 2.90)/(0.75)
z = -0.533 approximately
This grade is below average as well.
----------------------------
To summarize, we have these z scores
- Care of Magical Creatures: z = 0.333
- Defense Against the Dark Arts: z = 0.583
- Transfiguration: z = -0.263
- Potions: z = -0.533
Harry did his best in Defense Against the Dark Arts because the z score of 0.583 (approximate) is the largest of the four z scores. On the other hand, his worst grade is in Potions because -0.533 is the lowest z score.
Jane has 20 pounds and Charlotte has 16 pounds
Let j = amount Jane has and c = amount Charlotte has
j - 2 = c + 2 if Jane gives Charlotte 2 pounds
j + 4 = 2(c - 4) if Charlotte gives Jane 4 pounds
j + 4 = 2c - 8
Subtract equation 1 from equation 3
6 = c - 10
c = 16
j = c + 4 = 20

Answer:
28 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
area = base times height (a = b x h)
8 times 3.5 (3 1/2) = 28 inches
Also, if you could label this brainliest that would be a great help!
