Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

7x = 2(x - 50)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 2:                    7x = 2x - 100
  2. Isolate <em>x </em>term:                 5x = -100
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                          x = -20

Answer:

x= -20

Step-by-step explanation:

So the first thing you would want to do is multiply 2 on both x and -50. After that you will end up with 7x = 2x - 100. Then you will need to subtract x on both sides getting 5x = -100. Finally you will need to divide 5 on both sides getting x = -20

What is the solution to the equation below?
12345 [234]

Answer:

C  x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt(x+3) = x-3

Square each side

(sqrt(x+3))^2 = (x-3)^2

x+3 = (x-3)^2

x+3 = (x-3)(x-3)

FOIL

x+3 = x^2 -3x-3x+9

Combine like terms

x+3 = x^2 -6x+9

Subtract x from each side

x-x+3 = x^2 -6x-x +9

3 =  x^2 -7x +9

Subtract 3 from each side

3-3 =  x^2 -7x +9-3

0 = x^2 -7x+6

Factor

0 = (x-6)(x-1)

Using the zero product property

x-6=0   x-1 =0

x=6  x=1

Since we squared we need to check for extraneous solutions

x=1

sqrt(1+3) = 1-3

sqrt(4) = -2

2=-2

False

Extraneous

x=6

sqrt(6+3) = 6-3

sqrt(9) = 3

3=3

True   solutions

The points obtained by students of a class in a test are normally distributed with a mean of 60 points and a standard deviation
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

0.13% of students have scored less than 45 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using 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 problem, we have that:

\mu = 60, \sigma = 5

About what percent of students have scored less than 45 points?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 45. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{45 - 60}{5}

Z = -3

Z = -3 has a pvalue of 0.0013

0.13% of students have scored less than 45 points
