Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

6 - 9x = 5x - 9x + 16

Step 2: Solve for x

Combine like terms: 6 - 9x = -4x + 16
Add 9x on both sides: 6 = 5x + 16
Subtract 16 on both sides: -10 = 5x
Divide 5 on both sides: -2 = x
Rewrite: x = -2

Answer:

$x=-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$We\ are\ given,\\6-9x=5x-9x+16\\6-9x=-4x+16\ [Resolving\ like\ terms\ in\ RHS]\\-9x+4x=16-6[Transposing\ variables\ to\ LHS\ and\ constants\ to\ RHS]\\-5x=10[Simplifying]\\x=\frac{10}{-5}[Dividing]\\x=-2 [Finding\ the\ value\ of\ x]$

Many companies "grade on a bell curve" to compare the performance of their managers and professional workers. This forces the us

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

option A

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

10% A grades 80% B grades 10% C grades

This year, managers with scores less than 35 received C's and those with scores above 425 received A's.

The mean has to be middle of two corresponding cutoff value

$\mu = \dfrac{35+425}{2}$

μ = 230

Cutoff Off C grade corresponds with the area of 0.10 is table A.

corresponding z- score according to Table A

Z = -1.28

now, standard deviation

$z = \dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$\sigma= \dfrac{x-\mu}{z}$

$\sigma= \dfrac{35-230}{-1.28}$

σ = 152.3

Correct answer is option A
