Answer:

It is increasing before x = -2 and from x = 0 to x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Option 1 - you can see the line going down starting at -2 and that means the line is decreasing but the choice says "It is increasing before x = 0". This contradicts the actual graph.

Option 2 - The line isn't increasing before x= -1, it's actually decreasing as seen in the graph.

Option 3 - The line doesn't even touch the point before x = -3 so this choice makes no sense.

Option 4 - Since all the other choices were eliminated this is the only choice standing. Looking at the line it is increasing before x = -2.

Scores on a test are normally distributed with a mean of 81.2 and a standard deviation of 3.6. What is the probability of a rand

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The probability of a randomly selected student scoring in between 77.6 and 88.4 is 0.8185.

Solution:

Given, Scores on a test are normally distributed with a mean of 81.2

And a standard deviation of 3.6.

We have to find What is the probability of a randomly selected student scoring between 77.6 and 88.4?

For that we are going to subtract probability of getting more than 88.4 from probability of getting more than 77.6

Now probability of getting more than 88.4 = 1 - area of z – score of 88.4

$\mathrm{Now}, \mathrm{z}-\mathrm{score}=\frac{88.4-\mathrm{mean}}{\text {standard deviation}}=\frac{88.4-81.2}{3.6}=\frac{7.2}{3.6}=2$

So, probability of getting more than 88.4 = 1 – area of z- score(2)

= 1 – 0.9772 [using z table values]

= 0.0228.

Now probability of getting more than 77.6 = 1 - area of z – score of 77.6

$\mathrm{Now}, \mathrm{z}-\text { score }=\frac{77.6-\text { mean }}{\text { standard deviation }}=\frac{77.6-81.2}{3.6}=\frac{-3.6}{3.6}=-1$

So, probability of getting more than 77.6 = 1 – area of z- score(-1)

= 1 – 0.1587 [Using z table values]

= 0.8413

Now, probability of getting in between 77.6 and 88.4 = 0.8413 – 0.0228 = 0.8185

Hence, the probability of a randomly selected student getting in between 77.6 and 88.4 is 0.8185.

Which expression is equivalent to (x^4/3 x^2/3)^1/3?

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: $x^{\frac{2}{3} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have several properties of exponents in use here. The two that are used are:

$(x^{a})(x^{b}) = x^{a + b}$ (Exponents with the same base that are being multiplied together can have the exponents added)

$(x^{a})^{b} = x^{(a)(b)}$ (A base raised to a power, and then raised to another power means that you can multiply the exponents to get the same result as doing inside operations and then outside operations)

Let's apply it!

First, let's simplify what's inside the parenthesis.

$x^{\frac{4}{3} } x^{\frac{2}{3} }$ (Remember, they have the same base of "x", so we can add the exponents)

$x^{\frac{4}{3} + \frac{2}{3} }$ = $x^{\frac{6}{3} }$ = $x^{2}$

Now we have $(x^{2})^{\frac{1}{3} }$ . Let's use the second rule.

$(x^{2})^{\frac{1}{3} }$ = $x^{\frac{2}{3} }$

Hope this helps! :^)

there are 100 pennies in a dollar what fraction of a dollar is 61 pennies write a fraction decimal and word form

ycow [4]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}

x&61
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{1}{x}=\cfrac{100}{61}$

solve for "x", that's how much

What is the value of x in the equation one-fifthx – two-thirdsy = 30, when y = 15? 4 8 80 200.

worty [1.4K]

On solving the linear system, for the value of y = 15, the value of x is 200. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is the linear system?</h3>

It is a system of an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. A one-dimension figure that has no width. It is a combination of infinite points side by side.

Given

The linear equation is shown below.

$\rm \dfrac{1}{5}x - \dfrac{2}{3}y = 30$
