$2 \sqrt{17-x} =2x-10\ \ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ D:(17-x \geq 0\ \ \ and\ \ \ 2x-10 \geq 0)\\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x \leq 17\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x \geq 5\\\\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ D=\\\\2 \sqrt{17-x} =2(x-5)\ /:2\\\\ \sqrt{17-x} =x-5\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ (\sqrt{17-x})^2 =(x-5)^2\\\\17-x=x^2-10x+25\\\\$

$x^2-9x+18=0\\\\ x^2-3x-6x+18=0\\\\x(x-3)-6(x-3)=0\\\\(x-3)(x-6)=0\ \ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ (x-3=0\ \ \ \ or\ \ \ \ x-6=0)\\\\x=3\ \notin\ D\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x=6\ \in\ D\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ \frac{x}{4} = \frac{6}{4} =1.5\\\\Ans.\ \frac{x}{4} =1.5$

Answer:

The area of ∆DEF = 4.5in²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above diagram,

∆BAC ~∆DEF

It is important to note that if two triangles are similar, the ratio of their areas is equal or equivalent to the ratio of the areas of their sides

This means for the above question, that

We have the bigger triangle = ∆BAC has a side of 4 in and Area = 8 in²

The small triangle has a side of 3in

Finding the scale factor k = ratio of the sides of both Triangles

k = 4/3

k² = (4/3)²

k² = 16/9

Hence,

Area of ∆BAC/ Area of ∆DEF = 16/9

8in²/Area of ∆DEF = 16/9

We cross Multiply

8 in² × 9 = Area of ∆DEF × 16

Divide both sides by 16

Area of ∆DEF = 72/16

= 4.5in²

Therefore, the Area of ∆DEF rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5in²

A set of test scores is normally distributed with a mean of 130 and a standard deviation of 30 What score is necessary to reach

nlexa [21]

Answer:

A score of 150.25 is necessary to reach the 75th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

A set of test scores is normally distributed with a mean of 130 and a standard deviation of 30.

This means that $\mu = 130, \sigma = 30$
