Answer:
x = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4(x + 6) - 2x = 12 ← distribute and simplify left side
4x + 24 - 2x = 12
2x + 24 = 12 ( subtract 24 from both sides )
2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = - 6
Okay so this is your equation; 17=221/x
all you need to do is multiply 221 by 17 and you'll have your answer. I hope this helps!
E) 12 minutes
A normal curve has approximately 95% of graph between mean - 2sd and mean + 2sd
So 95% of the times will be between 0 and 12 minutes. 6 - 2x3 to 6 + 2x3
2.5% will take over 12 minutes
Strangely 2.5% will also take less than 0 minutes to process which shows the normal curve is not perfect in this example.
x=2 from cross multiplying.
