Using z-scores, it is found that the value of z is z = 1.96.

Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula, which for a measure X, in a distribution with mean 
and standard deviation 
, is given by:
- It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.
- Each z-score has an associated p-value, which is the percentile.
- The normal distribution is symmetric, which means that the middle 95% is between the <u>2.5th percentile and the 97.5th percentile</u>.
- The 2.5th percentile is Z with a p-value of 0.025, thus Z = -1.96.
- The 97.5th percentile is Z with a p-value of 0.975, thus Z = 1.96.
- Thus, the value of Z is 1.96.

The slope of a line perpendicular to another line has a
slope which is the negative reciprocal of that line or:
m1 = -1/m2
First, we convert the given equation into slope-intercept
form of a line: y = mx + b
8x + 15y = 12
15y = -8x + 12
y = (-8/15) x + 0.8
m1 = -8 / 15
Therefore the slope of the perpendicular line is:
m2 = 15 / 8
Since the perpendicular line crosses the point (11, 17), therefore
using the slope formula:
m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)
15 / 8 = (y2 – 17) / (x2 – 11)
1.875 (x2 – 11) = y2 – 17
1.875 x2 – 20.625 = y2 – 17
y2 = 1.875 x2 – 3.625
y = (15/8) x – 3.625
multiplying both sides by 8:
8y = 15x – 29
rewriting in standard form:

Answer (2x + 7) • (x2 - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
please give me brainlest!!
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares :
1.1 Factoring: x2-2
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
A2 - B2
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 2 is not a square !!
Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect squares.
Final result :
(2x + 7) • (x2 - 2)
