Answer:
At least 202.44 mm in the top 15%.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
How many yearly mm of rainfall would there be in the top 15%?
At least X mm.
X is the 100-15 = 85th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.85. So X when Z = 1.037.
At least 202.44 mm in the top 15%.
Answer:
the y intercept is 4
and frm that point to another spot on the line you go DOWN one unit (negative)
and two units to positive (to the right) thus the slope is - 1 (down) and 2 positive to the right
-1/2 = slope
y = -1/2 + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Id say |x|=5, that's my guess

Explanation:</h2>
1. rearrange terms
*4
4 + 3
* = 5
+ 2
+ 2
0
*3x + 44* = 5x + 2 + 20
2. combine like terms
3 + 44 = *5x + 2* + 20
3 + 44 = *7x* + 20
3. Subtract 4
4 from both sides of the equation
3x + 44 = 7x + 20
3x + 44 *-44* = 7x + 20 *-44*
4. Simplify
(Subtract the numbers)
3x + *44 - 44* = 7x + 20 - 44
3x = 7x + 20 - 44
(Again)
3x = 7x + 20 *- 44*
3x = 7x - 24
5. Subtract 7
from both sides of the equation
3x = 7x - 24
3x *- 7x* = 7x - 24 *- 7x*
6. Combine like terms
*3x - 7x* = 7x - 24 - 7x
*-4x* = 7x - 24 - 7x
(Again)
-4x = *7x* - 24 *- 7x*
-4x = - 24
7. Divide both sides of the equation by the same term
-4x = - 24
8. Simplify
(Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator)
*x* =
(Divide the numbers)
x =
x = 6
Answer:
C: {−5, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting with −2|−2x−4|=−12, divide both sides by -2:
|−2x−4| = 6
Reduce this by dividing all terms by 2:
|-x - 2| = 3
This is equivalent to x + 2 = 3 and x + 2 = - 3
Solving thse two equations, we get x = 1 and x = -5
And so the solution set is C: {−5, 1)
