Answer:

a=\dfrac{4x-7}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations of lines are :

y=4x-5 and y=ax+2

From above equations,

4x-5 = ax+2

4x-ax = 5+2

4x-7 = ax

a=\dfrac{4x-7}{x}

So, the value of a is equal to \dfrac{4x-7}{x}.

A rectangle with an area of 120 in 2 has a length 8 inches longer than two times its width. What is the width of the rectangle?
nlexa [21]

width = x

length = 2x+8

area = l x w

x<span>(2x+8)</span>=120

<span><span>2<span>x^2</span>+8x−120=0 </span> </span>

<span><span><span>x^2</span>+4−60=0 </span></span>

<span><span><span>(x+10)</span><span>(x−6)</span>=0</span> </span>

<span><span>x=−10 and x=6 </span></span>

<span><span> width has to be a positive number</span></span>

Width = <span>6 </span> inches.

Find the z-scores that bound the middle 74% of the area under the standard normal curve.
aniked [119]

Since 74% of the middle area is bounded, this means that there is 13% on the left side, and another 13% on the right side.

P (left) = 0.13

P (right ) = 1 - 0.13 = 0.87

 

At this P values, the z scores are approximately:

z score (left) = -2.22

<span>z score (right) = 1.13</span>
