Answer:
(x + 2)² = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
To complete the square, write the equation standard form.
-4 + 4x + x² = 0
x² + 4x - 4 = 0
Take the middle term 4x and divide the coefficient in 2 and square it. Here it is 4/2 = 2. 2² = 4. Add 4 to both sides.
x² + 4x + 4 - 4 = 0 + 4
(x + 2)² - 4 = 4
(x + 2)² = 8

Answer:
5% of people have an IQ score less than 60 or greater than 140
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 100
Standard deviation = 20
What percentage of people have an IQ score less than 60 or greater than 140
60 = 100 - 2*20
So 60 is two standard deviations below the mean
140 = 100 + 2*20
So 140 is two standard deviations above the mean
By the Empirical Rule, 95% of the people have an IQ between 60 and 140, and 5% have an IQ outside this range, that is, less than 60 or greater than 140.
Answer:
240 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up an ratio where g = gallons and m = miles:
20g = 300m
We need the right side of that to be 3600, so multiply both sides by 12:
12(20g) = 12(300m)
Answer: 240 gallons for 3600 miles
