Answer:
Sinister Stan needs 1/40 oz more slime for his evil plan.
Step-by-step explanation:
6 3/8-3 3/4-2 3/5 = 51/8-15/4-13/5 = 255/40-150/40-104/40 = 1/40
So first you have to find the perfect square that matches up with x^2 + 6x
so half of 6, and square it. your perfect square is 9
x^2 + 6x + 9 = 7 + 9
then, condense the left side of the equation into a squared binomial:
(x + 3)^2 = 16
take the square root of both sides:
x + 3 = ± √16
therefore:
x + 3 = ± 4
x = - 3 ± 4
so your solution set is:
x = 1, -7
Answer:
P(paid) = 10/26
P(paid | game) = 5/14
The events “paid” and “game” are not independent
Approximately 1718 have a score within that range.
We calculate the z-score for each end of this spectrum:
z = (X-μ)/σ = (2.5-3.1)/0.3 = -0.6/0.3 = -2
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that the area to the left of, less than, this z-score is 0.0228.
For the upper end:
z = (3.7-3.1)/0.3 = 0.6/0.3 = 2
Using a z-table, we see that the area to the left of, less than, this z-score is 0.9772.
The probability between these is given by subtracting these:
0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544.
This means the proportion of people that should fall between these is 0.9544:
0.9544*1800 = 1717.92 ≈ 1718
