Suppose the variable x is represented by a standard normal distribution. What value of x is at the 40th percentile of the distribution

Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

When 2 lines are perpendicular the gradient of one is the reciprocal of the other :

If the gradient of A was 2 the gradient of B would be 1/2.

If the gradient of a is 7 the gradient of b would be 1/7 .

Hope this helped and have a good day

Answer:

C) -9

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 19 must be half x + 29 because triangles RBC and RST are similar by SAS and RB is half of RS and RC is half of RT.

2(x + 19) = x + 29

2x + 38 = x + 29

x + 38 = 29

x = -9

Answer:

a) x = 1.5 or x = -0.3

b) x = 5 or x = -8

Explanation:

Quadratic formula:

[tex]\sf x = \dfrac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \quad when \:\: ax^2 + bx + c = 0[/tex]

Here given equation: 5x² - 6x  - 2 = 0

Identify variable constants: a = 5, b = -6, c = -2

Putting these values into equation:

[tex]\sf x = \dfrac{ -(-6) \pm \sqrt{(-6)^2 - 4(5)(-2)}}{2(5)}[/tex]

[tex]\sf x = \dfrac{ 6 \pm \sqrt{36 + 40}}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\sf x = \dfrac{ 6 \pm \sqrt{76}}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\sf x = \dfrac{ 3\pm \sqrt{76}}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\sf x = \dfrac{ 3+ \sqrt{76}}{5} \quad or \quad \dfrac{ 3- \sqrt{76}}{5}[/tex]

In one decimal point:

[tex]\sf x = 1.5 \quad or \quad -0.3[/tex]

b) Here use "middle term split" method

⇒ x² + 3x = 40

relocate

⇒ x² + 3x - 40 = 0

The factors of 40 are 8 and 5

⇒ x² + 8x - 5x - 40 = 0

factor common terms

⇒ x(x + 8) - 5(x + 8) = 0

collect into groups

⇒ (x - 5)(x + 8) = 0

set to zero

⇒ x - 5 = 0 or x + 8 = 0

relocate

⇒ x = 5 or x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The quadratic formula can help find answers to a quadratic equation when it is equal to 0. The formula is [tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex] for a quadratic equation of the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex].

In this question, a is 5, b is -6, and c is -2. Let's put them in the equation and solve.

[tex]x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt{(-6)^2-4(5)(-2)}}{2(5)}\\x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt{36+40}}{10}\\x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt{76}}{10}\\x=\frac{6\pm2\sqrt{19}}{10}\\x=\frac{3\pm\sqrt{19}}{5}[/tex]

This means that the value of x is both [tex]\frac{3+\sqrt{19}}5[/tex] and [tex]\frac{3-\sqrt{19}}5[/tex], since both values make x equal to 0. Putting both into the calculator, we get that [tex]x=1.5[/tex] or [tex]x=-0.3[/tex].

b) We can easily solve this equation using factoring, which turns a quadratic into two factors, and finds the solutions by setting both to 0. This will only work if the quadratic is equal to 0.

[tex]x^2+3x-40=0[/tex]

Now, we have to find two numbers that add to 3 and multiply to -40. The numbers 8 and -5 work, as 8-5=3 and 8*-5 is -40.

we can now make our factors x+8 and x-5

[tex](x+8)(x-5)=0[/tex]

If two numbers, say A and B, are being multiplied and equal 0, then either A is 0, or b is 0, or both. Similarly, if x+8 and x-5 are being multiplied and equal 0, either x+8 = 0, or x-5=0.

[tex]x+8=0\\x=-8[/tex]    [tex]x-5=0\\x=5[/tex]

This makes our solutions x=-8 and x=5.

If you are not familiar with factoring or the process I have went through above, I highly recommend learning about it.

The equation which has the values as given in the task content is; y= x² -3x -5.

By convention, the general form representation of a quadratic equations is;

Answer:

the 4th answer option. W = 153°, P = 71°

Step-by-step explanation:

that means both figures are similar.

and that means that the angles at the corresponding vertexes are the same, and all 4 corresponding sides (and any other pair of corresponding lines like diagonals) have the same scaling factor.

we see due to the proportions of the different parts of the shapes

U corresponds to Q.

T corresponds to P.

Answer:

This would be true for a rectangle and a square.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangles and square have 90 angles.  The exterior angles would also equal 90 because 90 + 90 is 180.  An interior angle and the exterior angle are supplements (add together to 180).

The measure of the acute angles are 62° and 28° .

Let x represent the measure of one of the acute angles of the right angle triangle.

Let y represent the measure of the other acute angle of the right angle triangle.

One of the acute angles in a right triangle measures 22 degrees less than 3 times the other acute angle. This means that

x = 3y - 22

The sum of two acute angles in a right triangle is 90 degrees.

We write as

x + y = 90 - - - - - - - (1)

Substituting x = 3y - 22 into equation 1, it becomes

3y - 22 + y = 90

4y = 90 + 22= 112

y = 112/4 = 28

x = 90 - y = 90 - 28

x = 62

The set {h| 0 ≤ h ≤ 60} describe the domain of p(h).

According to the statement

We have given that the brenton gets paid $20 per hour for the first 40 hours he works in a week. For any hours above that, he is paid overtime at $30 per hour.

and we have to find that the those set which describes the domain of p(h).

So,for this purpose

In this case, the domain represents the set of hours he is permitted to work

From the question, we understand that he cannot work more than 60 hours

This means that, the least number of hours to work is 0, and the highest is 60

So, the domain is 0 to 60

Yes, the given line can be used to make reasonable predictions of the number of cheese pizzas that will be sold, since the scatter points clearly show a trend.

As time goes on, the number of pizzas sold is getting bigger, and the trend is what created the line.

The data was taken over 8 consecutive weeks, so we can assume that it can be used in our prediction.

Since the trend has been pretty consistent over periods of time, we can expect it to continue in the upcoming weeks.

Mode is the number that is repeated the most as we can see the number 10 is there 3 times in the data. 13 isn't there, 14 is only there once and 16 is also not there

By assuming that 1 + 1 = 3, we will reach an absurd.

To do this, we need to reach an absurd.

Let's assume that we are working with integer numbers, and let's assume that 1 + 1 is equal to 3.

Then we can write:

1 + 1 = 3

Now, if we subtract 1 in both sides, we get:

(1 + 1) - 1 = 3 - 1

1  = 2

Now we can subtract 1 again so we get:

1 - 1 = 2 - 1

0 = 1

This is an absurd, then the statement:

1 + 1 = 3

is false.

b. The period is the time it takes for the graph to repeat or complete one cycle and in this graph, it is 3.

c. Looking at the graph, ideally the coordinate (3, -1.5) should have been on the y-axis which is at (0, -1.5). This means it was shifted by 3 units to the right side.

d. The positive peak should be equal to the negative peak but in this case, it is not so and as such the center should be on the x-axis which means that the graph was shifted down vertically by 2 units.

4) a. Amplitude is the distance between the center line and the positive or negative peak of the graph. Thus, the amplitude is 3 - 1 = 2

Answer:

[tex]\fbox {Yes}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

An inverse variation can be seen when two factors are compared, if one factor is seen to be increasing, then naturally the factor should be decreasing.

Here, as the number of contractors increase, the time taken to complete the work decreases.

∴ Hence, this represents an inverse variation.

The equation of the line parallel to the line KL passing through the points (-6, 8) and (6, 0), and going through the point M (-4, -2) is 2x + 3y = -6. The point satisfying this equation is (-6, 2). Thus, the 2nd option is the right choice.

Slope of the line KL = (8 - 0)/(-6 - 6) = 8/(-12) = -2/3.

Using the formula of the slope of the line passing through the points (x₂, y₂) and (x₁, y₁), as m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).

The slope of the line parallel to the line KL will be equal to the slope of KL.

Thus, the slope of the required line is m = -2/3.

The required line also passes through point M (-4, -2).

Thus, the equation of the required line will be,

y - (-2) = (-2/3)(x - (-4)) {Using the equation of the line passing through the point (x₁, y₁) and a slope m, as y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)},

or, y + 2 = (-2/3)(x + 4),

or, 3(y + 2) = -2x - 8,

or, 2x + 3y = -6.

From the given points, only the point (-6, 2) satisfies the equation.

Thus, the equation of the line parallel to the line KL passing through the points (-6, 8) and (6, 0), and going through the point M (-4, -2) is 2x + 3y = -6. The point satisfying this equation is (-6, 2). Thus, the 2nd option is the right choice.
