Answer:

x =5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The directions say to use x for the number.

"take 10 away from"

x - 10

"then square the result"

(x - 10)^2

"I get the same answer" means the two expressions will be equal to each other.

"if I square my number"

x^2

"then subtract 10 from the result"

x^2 - 10

SET EQUAL TO EACH OTHER.

(x - 10)^2 = x^2 -10

Multiply on the left side.

x^2-20x+100 =x^2-10

subtract x^2 from both sides.

-20x + 100 = -10

subtract 100.

-20x = -110

divide by -20

x = 11/2 or 5.5

CHECK:

(5.5-10)^2=20.25

5.5^2 - 10=20.25

The Arc Electronic Company had an income of 90 million dollars last year. Suppose the mean income of firms in the same industry
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

0.0869

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc electronic company had an income of 90 million dollars last year.

Mean(μ) = 75 million dollars

Standard deviation (σ) = 11 million dollars

Probability that the randomly selected will earn more than arc did last year = Pr(x>90)

Using normal distribution,

Z = (x - μ) / σ

Z = (90 - 75) / 11

Z = 15/11

Z = 1.36

From the normal distribution table, 1.36 = 0.4131

Φ(z) = 0.4131

Recall that when Z is positive, Pr(x>a) = 0.5 - Φ(z)

= 0.5 - 0.4131

= 0.0869

What is greater, 85/100 or 21/25?
Elodia [21]


85/100 is greater

85/100=.85 or 85%

21/25=.84 or 84%

.85 is greater than .84 so 85/100 > 21/25
