Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

if y = -2 then x = 4

what is y when x = 8

$\frac{ - 2}{x} = \frac{4}{8} \\ - 16 = 4x \\ x = - 4$

Factor the trinomial below.<br> x2 + 14x + 48

elixir [45]

IF IT EQUALS 0
1. find two number that multiplied to 48 and adds to 14, which are 6 and 8.

2. substitute the new numbers in with x to get x^2 + 6x + 8x + 48.

3. factor out the x and the 8 to get x(x+6)+8(x+6).

4. x = -6, x = -8

IF IT DOES NOT EQUAL 0
then (x+6)*(x+8) is your answer.

A large concrete block is used for the cornerstone

marin [14]

Answer:

The volume of the concrete needed to make the block is 5054 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relate to the calculation of the volume of a shape

The dimensions of the block are;

The depth of the block, d = 19 ft.

The width of the block, w = 19 ft.

The length of the block, l = 14 ft.

The volume of a cube, V = Length, l × Width, w × Depth, d

Therefore, the volume, 'V' of a cubic block is given as follows;

V = l × w × d = 14 ft. × 19 ft. × 19 ft. = 5054 ft.³

The volume of the concrete needed to make the block = The volume of the block, V = 5054 ft³.

The mean yearly rainfall in Sydney, Australia, is about 134 mm and the standard deviation is about 66 mm ("Annual maximums of,"

svetlana [45]

Answer:

At least 202.44 mm in the top 15%.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use 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 question, we have that:

$\mu = 134, \sigma = 66$
