answer : -90 = -100+x → x = 10

explanation : to solve for x, you are simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.

step 1 : move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign.

ex : -90-x = -100

step 2 : move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign.

ex : -x = -100+90

step 3 : calculate the sum

ex : -x = -10

step 4 : change the signs on both sides of the equation

ex : x = 10

solution : x=10

hope this helps !

Answer:

2.28% of tests has scores over 90.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using 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.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 80, \sigma = 5$
