Answer:
-3 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
0 = -x3-9
9=-x3
3=-x
-3=x
Divide both sides of the equation by 0.1 which leaves you with
n = 89.9/0.1 = 899
Answer:
the lowest passing score would be x = 298
Step-by-step explanation:
School wishes that only 2.5 percent of students taking test pass
We are given
mean= 200,
standard deviation = 50
We need to find x
The area under the curve can be found by:
2.5 % = 0.025
So, 1- 0.025 = 0.975
We need to find the value of z for which the answer is 0.975
Looking at the z-score table, the value of z is: 1.96
Now, using the formula:
z = x - mean/standard deviation
1.96 = x - 200/50
=> 1.96 * 50 = x-200
98 = x - 200
=> x = 200+98
x = 298
So, the lowest passing score would be x = 298
Answer:
x= -2, y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. substitute x = 4+2y in the first equation: 
simplify it : 
2. isolate y in 8 + 5y = -7 --> 5y = -7 - 8 -->
3. solve for y: 5y = -15 --> y = -15/5 --> y= -3
4. solve for x: x = 4 + 2y
x = 4 + 2(-3)
x = 4 + (-6)
x = -2
