One could be |x|<-2
This could be one since no matter what you put in for x, it will always be positive.
Answer:
<u>The probability that a randomly selected boy in school can run the mile in less than 348 seconds is 1.1%.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:
μ of the time a group of boys run the mile in its secondary- school fitness test = 440 seconds
σ of the time a group of boys run the mile in its secondary- school fitness test = 40 seconds
2. Find the probability that a randomly selected boy in school can run the mile in less than 348 seconds.
Let's find out the z-score, this way:
z-score = (348 - 440)/40
z-score = -92/40 = -2.3
Now let's find out the probability of z-score = -2.3, using the table:
p (-2.3) = 0.0107
p (-2.3) = 0.0107 * 100
p (-2.3) = 1.1% (rounding to the next tenth)
<u>The probability that a randomly selected boy in school can run the mile in less than 348 seconds is 1.1%.</u>
Why are standardized units of measure important to scientists?
X subtracted from y means y-x
(4x^2-4x+3)-(2x^2-6x-4)
4x^2-4x+3-2x^2+6x+4
4x^2-2x^2-4x+6x+3+4=
2x^2+2x+7
