Answer:

(a) 83% of the scores were at or below her score.

(b) 17% was above her score.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Percentile score of Angela in the general aptitude test = 83rd percentile

To find:

a) Percentage of scores which were at or below her score?

b) Percentage of score which were above her score?

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the term "<em>Percentile</em>"

Percentile is the value below which the certain percent of people/marks fall.

Therefore, when we say percentile of someone's score is x, then there are x\% of scores are at the same level or below.

And (100-x)\% of the scores are above this level.

Therefore, we can say that:

83% of the scores were at the same level or below the score of Angela.

And (100-83)\% = 17\% of the scores were above the score of Angela.

Pls help I need to find the missing sides?!!
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The missing sides are 13 (small) and 2424 (big)

Step-by-step explanation:

The bigger triangle is bigger by 2 so multiply or divide the sides you do know by 2 to find the missing sides.

BC=12

ED= 12*2= 24

FD= 26

AC= 26/2= 13

What is the x-and y-intercept of the graph 4x -5y =40??
umka21 [38]

Answer:

x-intercept = 10

y-intercept = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-5y=40

To identify the y-intercept, we will need to format the equation in the form y=mx+b. We can start by subtracting 4x from both sides of the equation:

-5y=-4x+40

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of y, which is -5:

y=\frac{-4}{-5} x - 8

The b is representative of the y-intercept in y=mx+b.

Identify b in the equation y=\frac{-4}{-5} x - 8:

b=-8

Therefore, our y-intercept is -8.

To solve for the x-intercept, replace the y in the equation y=\frac{-4}{-5} x - 8 with a zero:

0=\frac{-4}{-5} x - 8

Add 8 to both sides of the equation:

8=\frac{-4}{-5} x

You can go ahead and divide -4 by -5 to get rid of the fraction:

8=0.8x

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x, which is 0.8:

10=x

Therefore, our x-intercept is 10.

The explicit rule for a sequence is an=5(−2)^n−1
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

3) a_n=-2a_{n-1}, a_1=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the explicit rule for a sequence is a_n=5(-2)^{n-1}.

Now we need to find about what is the recursive rule for the sequence and match with the given choices to find the correct choice.

1) a_n=-2a_{n+1}, a_1=5

2) a_n=-5a_{n+1}, a_1=2

3) a_n=-2a_{n-1}, a_1=5

4) a_n=-5a_{n-1}, a_1=2

Plug n=1 into given formula to get first term

a_n=5(-2)^{n-1}

a_1=5(-2)^{1-1}=5(-2)^{0}=5(1)=5

base of the exponent part is (-2) so that means we need to multiply -2 to the previous term to get nth term

Hence correct choice is: 3) a_n=-2a_{n-1}, a_1=5

Can someone answer this question please please help me I really need it if it’s correct I will mark you brainliest .
Allisa [31]

Answer:

We divided the figure into 1 triangle and 2 rectangles.

Adding up the area of them, we get the total area:

A = 14 x (10 + 8 + 12 - 16)/2 + 8 x 5 + 6 x (12 + 8)

   = 258 (yd2)

Hope this helps!
