Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

b^2 - 2ac plug in the values

3^2 -2(4)(-4) start with the exponent (remember PEMDAS)

9 -2(4)(-4) start multiplying from left to right

9 -8(-4) multiply

9 + 32 add

41 that's your answer :)

A distribution of measurements is relatively mound-shaped

olchik [2.2K]

$\mathbb P(X>60)=\mathbb P\left(\dfrac{X-50}{10}>\dfrac{60-50}{10}\right)=\mathbb P(Z>1)$

Since approximately 68% of a (roughly) normal distribution falls within one standard deviation of the mean, that leaves 32% that falls outside, and by symmetry 16% should lie above one standard deviation of the mean.

Triangle XYZ has coordinates X(2, 4), Y(−3, 4), and Z(−3, 1). If the triangle is translated using the rule (x, y) → (x − 2, y +

Crank

Y(−3, 4) is the original

(x, y) → (x − 2, y + 1) is the rule you're using

(-3, 4) → (-3 - 2, 4 + 1)

(-3, 4) → (-5, 5)
