5(x - 2) - 3x + 7.

First use the distributive property:

5(x-2) = 5x-10

Now you have:

5x - 10 - 3x +7

Now combine like terms to get:

2x - 3

Scores on an exam follow an approximately normal distribution with a mean of 76. 4 and a standard deviation of 6. 1 points. What
crimeas [40]

If scores on an exam follow an approximately normal distribution with a mean of 76.4 and a standard deviation of 6.1 points, then the minimum score you would need to be in the top 2% is equal to 88.929.

A problem of this type in mathematics can be characterized as a normal distribution problem. We can use the z-score to solve it by using the formula;

Z = x - μ / σ

In this formula the standard score is represented by Z, the observed value is represented by x, the mean is represented by μ, and the standard deviation is represented by σ.

The p-value can be used to determine the z-score with the help of a standard table.

As we have to find the minimum score to be in the top 2%, p-value = 0.02

The z-score that is found to correspond with this p-value of 0.02 in the standard table is 2.054

Therefore,

2.054 = x - 76.4 ÷ 6.1

2.054 × 6.1 = x - 76.4

12.529 = x - 76.4

12.529 + 76.4 = x

x = 88.929

Hence 88.929 is calculated to be the lowest score required to be in the top 2%.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

=(48*7) +65*10^5

=((40+8) *7) +65*10^5

=(280+56)+65*10^5

=336+65*10^5

=.336*10^3+65*10^5

=.00336*10^5+65*10^5

=(.00336+65) *10^5

=64.00336*10^5

"if n balls are distributed randomly into k urns, what is the probability that the last urn contains j balls?"
seraphim [82]

The answer relies on whether the balls are different or not. If they are not, which is almost certainly what is intended.


If they are, the perceptive is a bit different. Your expression gives the likelihood that a particular set of j balls goes into the last urn and the other n−j balls into the other urns. But there are (nj) different possible sets of j balls, and each of them the same probability of being the last insides of the last urn, so the total probability of completing up with exactly j balls in the last urn is if the balls are different.

What is the measure of an angle if it is 70 less than three times its own complement?
anzhelika [568]
Let the angle be x.

Hence, its complement is 90 - x.

x = 3* (90 - x) - 70 = 270 - 3x - 70 = 200 - 3x

4x = 200

x = 50

Thus, the angle is 50°.
