Many states assess the skills of their students in various grades. One of the tests provided by a national association assesses the reading skills of 12th-grade students. In a recent year, the national mean score was 286 and the standard deviation was 38. Assuming that these scores are approximately Normally distributed, N(286, 38), use the 68-95-99.7 rule to give a range of scores that includes 95% of these students.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

95% of these scores are between 210 and 362.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 286, Standard deviation = 38

Use the 68-95-99.7 rule to give a range of scores that includes 95% of these students.

This is within 2 standard deviations of the mean. So

286 - 2*38 = 286 - 76 = 210

286 + 2*38 = 286 + 76 = 362

95% of these scores are between 210 and 362.

Angle 1 and Angle 2 are a linear pair. Angle 1=x-15, and angle 2=x+77. Solve for x then find the measure of each angle.

Answers

Answer: x=59, angle 1= 44˚, angle 2= 136˚

Step by step explanation:

Linear pairs add to make 180˚.

So angle 1 + angle 2= 180˚

Therefore x-15+x+77= 180

Add the x’s to get 2x
And then -15+77 to get 62.

So 2x+62=180
Subtract 62 to get 2x=118
Then divide by 2 to get x=59

Then substitute the x value into the angle equations

So angle 1 will be 59-15 which is 44˚
And angle 2 will be 59+77 which is 136˚

The zeros of the function f(1) = -(x + 1)(0 - 3)(x + 2) are –1, 3, and __and the y-intercept of the function is located at (0,__)
Pls help

Answers

Given:

Consider the given function is [tex]f(x)=-(x+1)(x-3)(x+2)[/tex].

To find:

The remaining zero and y-coordinate of y-intercept.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]f(x)=-(x+1)(x-3)(x+2)[/tex]

For zeros, [tex]f(x)=0[/tex].

[tex]-(x+1)(x-3)(x+2)=0[/tex]

[tex](x+1)(x-3)(x+2)=0[/tex]

[tex](x+1)=0,(x-3)=0,(x+2)=0[/tex]

[tex]x=-1,x=3,x=-2[/tex]

So, three zeros of given function are -1, 3 and -2.

Putting x=0 in the given function, we get

[tex]f(0)=-(0+1)(0-3)(0+2)[/tex]

[tex]f(0)=-(1)(-3)(2)[/tex]

[tex]f(0)=-(-6)[/tex]

[tex]f(0)=6[/tex]

So, the y-coordinate of y-intercept of the given function is 6. It means the y-intercept is at point (0,6).

Therefore, the zeros of the function [tex]f(x)=-(x+1)(x-3)(x+2)[/tex] are –1, 3, and -2 and the y-intercept of the function is located at (0,6).

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 4x - 45

x^2 + 10x + 9

= (x+9)(x+1)

So the fraction goes to

[tex]\frac{(x+9)(x-5)}{(x+9)(x+1)}[/tex] which is [tex]\frac{x-5}{x+1}[/tex].

Since the denominator cannot be 0, x^2 + 10x + 9 cannot be equal to 0. Therefore x cannot be -1 or -9.

Please help!!!

Answers

Answer:

5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the Quiz.

If An architect is reading a plan that is drawn on a scale of 0.65 inches to 1.25 ft. If the plan says that a room is 10 feet high, then the roof is 8.13 high in the drawing.

What is fraction?

A fraction represents a part of a whole or, more generally, any number of equal parts.

Based on the given conditions formulate 1.25÷10=1+x

If the fraction is defined, the denominator cannot equal 0,x≠0

Append the inequality as the domain x≠0

Multiply both sides by the common denominator:

1.25×10x/10=10x/x

Reduce the fractions: 5x/4=10

5x=40

x=8

It is approximately near to 8.13 inches.

Hence, 8.13 inches high is the roof in the drawing.

A 30 -foot ladder is leaning against a building. The base of the ladder is 18 feet from the side of the building. How high does the ladder reach along the side of the building?

Answers

Answer:  24 feet

========================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below. We have a right triangle with known horizontal leg 18, and unknown vertical leg x. The hypotenuse is 30.

Let a = x, b = 18, c = 30.

Apply the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + 18^2 = 30^2

x^2 + 324 = 900

x^2 = 900-324

x^2 = 576

x = sqrt(576)

x = 24

The top of the ladder reaches 24 feet high.

The length of a rectangle is eight more than twice its width. The perminiter is 96 feet . find the deminsions. With the variable, equation, and solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

lenght = x + 8

width = x

[tex]perimeter = 2(x + 8) + 2(x) \\ 96= 2x + 16 + 2x \\ 4x = 96 - 16 \\ x = \frac{80}{4} \\ x = 20[/tex]

then

Lenght = x + 8 = 20 + 8 = 28

Width = x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

L=8+2W

P=2L+2W

P=2(8+2W)+2W

P=16+4W+2W

P=16+6W

P=96

96=16-6W
