Answer:

x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 9 =15

+9 on both sides

8x = 15 + 9

Add 15 and 9 to get 24

8x = 14

Divide 8 by both sides

x = 3

$Z_ {13} = 0.5,\ Z_ {17} = 2.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

The z-scores give us information about how many standard deviations from the mean the data are. This difference can be negative, if the data are n deviations to the left of the mean, or it can be positive if the data are n deviations to the right of the mean.

To calculate the Z scores, we calculate the difference between the value of the data and the mean and then divide this difference by the standard deviation.

so

$Z = \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}$ .

Where x is the value of the data, μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation

In this case :

μ = 12 $/h

$\sigma$ = 2 $/h

We need to calculate the Z-scores for $x = 17$ and $x = 13$

Then for $x = 17$ :

$Z_{17} = \frac{17-12}{2}$ .

$Z_{17} = 2.5$

Then for $x = 13$ :

$Z_{13} = \frac{13-12}{2}$ .

$Z_{13} = 0.5$

Therefore the answer is:

$Z_ {13} = 0.5,\ Z_ {17} = 2.5$

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

He should combine 1 kg of 30% alloy and 3 kg of 10% alloy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = mass of 30% ally.

Let y = mass of 10% alloy.

He needs 4 kg of alloy, so the first equation, dealing with masses, is

x + y = 4

Now we deal with the amount of gold.

He uses x mass of 30% gold alloy. The amount of gold in that mass is 0.3x.

He uses y mass of 10% gold alloy. The amount of gold in that mass is 0.1y.

The total mass of gold is 0.3x + 0.1y. We are told the told the end alloy is 4 kg of 15% gold alloy. That contains 0.15(4) kg = 0.6 kg of gold.

The second equation is

0.3x + 0.1y = 0.6

Now we put together the two equations as a system of equations.

x + y = 4

0.3x + 0.1y = 0.6

Multiply both sides of the second equation by -10.

-3x - y = -6

Add this equation to the first original equation.

x + y = 4

+ -3x - y = -6

---------------------

-2x = -2

x = 1

Now substitute x = 1 in the first original equation and solve for y.

x + y = 4

x + y = 4

y = 3

Answer: He should combine 1 kg of 30% alloy and 3 kg of 10% alloy.
