|x| = x for x ≥ 0
examples:
|3| = 3; |0.56| = 0.56; |102| = 102
|x| = -x for x < 0
examples:
|-3| = -(-3) = 3; |-0.56| = -(-0.56) = 0.56; |-102| = 102

Put the values of x to the equation of the function h(x):
Answer:
A) 99.7% of people have an IQ between 64 and 136.
B) 5% of people have an IQ score less than 76 or greater than 124.
C) 16% of people have an IQ score greater than 112.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule tells us that, in a normal or 'bell-shaped' distribution, 68% of the data is one standard deviation from the mean, 95% of the data is two standard deviations from the mean, and 99.7% of the data is three standard deviations from the mean.
A) 64 and 136 are 3 standard deviations away from the mean, so 99.7% of people have an IQ between 64 and 136.
B) 76 and 124 are 2 standard devations away from the mean, but the answer is asking what percentage is not between them. 100% - 95% gives us 5%.
C) 112 is one standard deviation away from the mean. If we want to find the percentage greater, then we can do 100% - 50% (as 112 is to the left of the mean), then we can take half of 68 to get 34%, and after subtracting 50% and 34% from the 100%, we get 16%.
Complete question is;
Mia is tracking her savings account balance. She knows the equation y = 8000p^(t) can be used to find her balance y in any year t, but she can't remember what p represents. Her balance 3⅔ years after opening her account, is $9,905.54. What is the value of p?
Answer:
p = 1.06
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the equation y = 8000p^(t) can be used to find her balance y in any year t.
Now, we are given t = 3⅔ = 11/3 years
Also, we are given balance after 11/3 years as;
y = $9,905.54
Thus;
Plugging the relevant values into y = 8000p^(t), we have;
9,905.54 = 8000p^(11/3)
p^(11/3) = 9905.54/8000
p = (9905.54/8000)^(3/11)
p = 1.06
Answer:
C=0.55M+24.65
Step-by-step explanation:
0.40M+0.15M=0.55M
18.95+5.70=24.65
Given:
width of bookshelf no greater than 6 1/2 feet
purchased bookshelf that is 77 inches wide
We need to find the equivalent value in feet of the purchased bookshelf.
1 foot is equal to 12 inches
77 inches * 1 foot/12 inches = 77 ft/12 = 6 5/6 ft
Or we can convert the feet into inches:
6 1/2 feet convert to improper fraction.
((6*2)+1)/2 = 13/2 feet
13/2 ft * 12 inches/1ft = (13 * 12)/2 = 156/2 = 78 inches
Compare the maximum width of 78 inches to the actual width of 77 inches.
The purchased bookshelf can fit between two windows.
