Solve the equation for y.<br> 10x -4y = -20

Lisa has collected data to find that the number of pages per book on a book shelf has a normal distribution. What is the probabi

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

15.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

The empirical rule states that:

68% of all data falls within 1 standard deviation of the mean
95% of all data falls within 2 standard deviation of the mean
99.7% of all data falls within 3 standard deviation of the mean

When we say 1,2,3 standard deviation of the mean, that is, it is evenly distributed in both sides of the mean. For example:

68/2 = 34% of data falls within mean - 1*standard deviation, and

also, 34% of data falls within mean + 1*standard deviation

Now, we see that 192 - 27 = 165, so this is 1 standard deviation of the mean [mean - 1*standard deviation], so 34% of data fall in that range.

But we want, data that ARE FEWER than 165. So, we use property of normal distribution.

Half of data (50%) is left of mean, of which 34% fall within 1 standard deviation So the remaining would fall fewer than 165.

That is 50 - 34 = 16 - 0.15 = 15.85%

<u><em>Note:</em></u> since 99.7% fall within 3 standard deviation of mean, so 100 - 99.7 = 0.3 which is distributed in both sides, so 0.3/2=0.15 is subtracted

A rectangle has perimeter, P, length, land width, w. Which of the following represents lin

almond37 [142]

Answer:

$l=\frac{P}{2}-w$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of it's side lengths.

A rectangle has 4 sides where it's opposite sides are congruent.

So if one side has measurement w, then there is another side that has measurement w.

If there is one side that has measurement l, then there is another side that has measurement l.

So if you add w+w+l+l you get 2w+2l.

They are giving us that the perimeter is P, so P=2w+2l.

we are being asking to solve for l.

P=2w+2l

First step: Isolate term that contains the l, so get 2l by itself first.

We are going to subtract 2w on both sides giving us:

P-2w=2l

2l=P-2w

Now that we have 2l by itself it is time to perform the last step in getting l by itself.

Second step: Divide both sides by 2.

This gives us:

l=(P-2w)/2

You may separate the fraction like so:

$l=\frac{P-2w}{2}=\frac{P}{2}-\frac{2w}{2}=\frac{P}{2}-w$ .

I don't know your options but I have solve for l in terms of P and w

and got $l=\frac{P}{2}-w$ .

Please let me know if you have further questions with this problem.

In the diagram, the straight line ABC is parallel to EFG and DB is parallel to FC. Given that ABD=38 degrees and DFE=62 degrees.

Elanso [62]

Based on the calculations, the measure of angle BDF and CFG are 100° and 38° respectively.

<h3>The condition for two parallel lines.</h3>

In Geometry, two (2) straight lines are considered to be parallel if their slopes are the same (equal) and they have different y-intercepts. This ultimately implies that, two (2) straight lines are parallel under the following conditions:

m₁ = m₂

<u>Note:</u> m is the slope.

<h3>What is the alternate interior angles theorem?</h3>

The alternate interior angles theorem states that when two (2) parallel lines are cut through by a transversal, the alternate interior angles that are formed are congruent.

Based on the alternate interior angles theorem, we can infer and logically deduce the following properties from the diagram (see attachment):

<ABD = <BDH = 38°

<DFE = <HDF = 62°

For angle BDF, we have:

<BDF = <BDH + <HDF

<BDF = 38° + 62°

<BDF = 100°.

Since angles BDF and DFC are linear pair, they are supplementary angles. Thus, we have:

∠BDF + <DFC = 180°

<DFC = 180 - ∠BDF

<DFC = 180 - 100

<DFC = 80°.

For angle CFG, we have:

∠DFE + <DFC + <CFG= 180°

<CFG = 180° - ∠DFE - <DFC

<CFG = 180° - 62° - 80°

<CFG = 38°.
