15.87% of the population does not meet the minimum standards.
We use z-scores to find this probability:
z=(X-μ)/σ = (85-100)/15 = -15/15 = -1
Using a z-table (http://www.-table.com) we see that the area to the left of, less than, this is 0.1587. This is 15.87%.
The equivalent equation is d=17+12.5
it simplifies to d=29.5
The answer for this question is 26
Answer:
The slope is 2/3 and the function is y=2/3x which is a direct variation function.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of a line between two points, we use the equation
m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points
m= (4-2)/(6-3)
= 2/3
The slope of the line is 2/3
The equation of the line is
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-2 = 2/3(x-3)
Distribute
y-2 = 2/3x -2
Add 2 to each side
y-2+2 = 2/3x -2+2
y = 2/3x
This is a direct variation function
Let x = -6
y = 2/3(-6)
y = -4
(-6,-4)
