Answer:

The car dealer must sell 105 cars in May to reach his goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the car dealer sold 84 cars in April, and wants to increase his May sales by 25%, to determine the number of cars he must sell to reach his goal it is necessary to perform the following calculation:

84 + (84 x 0.25) = X

84 + 21 = X

105 = X

Therefore, the car dealer must sell 105 cars in May to reach his goal.

Express in simplest a+bi form: Square root of 1b + Square root of -1b

Nimfa-mama [501]

Express in simplest a+bi form: Square root of 1b + Square root of -1b

$\sqrt{1b} + \sqrt{-1b}$

Lets simplify $\sqrt{-b}$

We know $\sqrt{-1} = i$

$\sqrt{-b} =i\sqrt{b)$

We cannot simplify $\sqrt{1b}$

$\sqrt{1b} + \sqrt{-1b}$

$\sqrt{1b} + i\sqrt{b}$

So a + ib form is $\sqrt{1b} + i\sqrt{b}$

2x+3y=1 and y=-2 - 9 solve using linear combination method. Please explain steps.

kaheart [24]

Answer:

$x=17$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x+3y=1$

$y=-2-9$

In order to combine these two equations, an idea you need to keep in mind is finding a way of setting these equations as equal to each other. I saw that each equation shared a common value, $y$ . In this case, we need to isolate $y$ in the first equation so that both equations $=y$ .

$2x+3y=1$

$3y=-2x+1$

$\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{-2x+1}{3}$

$y=-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}$

With this, we now know that both $-2-9$ and $-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}$ are equal to $y$ , so we can set them equal to each other.

$y=-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}$

$y=-11$

$-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}=-11$

Reply to this if anything I'm saying or doing is confusing in any way, or if you find a mistake. :) Solve for $x$ .

$-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}=-11$

$-\frac{2}{3}x=-11-\frac{1}{3}$

$-\frac{2}{3}x =-\frac{33}{3}-\frac{1}{3}$

$-\frac{2}{3}x =-\frac{34}{3}$

$-\frac{2}{3}x(-\frac{3}{2})=-\frac{34}{3}(-\frac{3}{2})$

$x=\frac{102}{6}=17$

$x=17$

Hopefully this answer is correct AND makes sense in terms of how I achieved it. Again, reply to this with any questions or mistakes I made and I'll do my best to answer or fix them.

In a recently administered iq test, the scores were distributed normally, with mean 100 and standard deviation 15. what proporti

iragen [17]

To solve for proportion we make use of the z statistic. The procedure is to solve for the value of the z score and then locate for the proportion using the standard distribution tables. The formula for z score is:

z = (X – μ) / σ

where X is the sample value, μ is the mean value and σ is the standard deviation

when X = 70

z1 = (70 – 100) / 15 = -2

Using the standard distribution tables, proportion is P1 = 0.0228

when X = 130

z2 = (130 – 100) /15 = 2

Using the standard distribution tables, proportion is P2 = 0.9772

Therefore the proportion between X of 70 and 130 is:

P (70<X<130) = P2 – P1

P (70<X<130) = 0.9772 - 0.0228

P (70<X<130) = 0.9544

Therefore 0.9544 or 95.44% of the test takers scored between 70 and 130.
