Answer:x=5,-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Edna says that when \left ( x-2\right )^2=9[/tex]

then x-2=3

such that x=5

but this is not true as when we put the value of x in equation then it will not satisfy the equation.

It can be solved by taking the terms either on LHS or RHS

\left ( x-2\right )^2-9=0

x-2=\pm 3

x=5

x=-1

Assuming the given equation is (x-2)^2 = 9, Edna is partially correct. Saying x-2 = 3 is halfway there in terms of getting the ful solution. She forgot about the minus form of the plus minus. If (x-2)^2 = 9, then applying the square root to both sides leads to these two equations: x-2 = 3 or x-2 = -3. So we have a plus 3 and then a minus 3.

The height of seaweed of all plants in a body of water are normally distributed with a mean of 10 cm and a standard deviation of
Degger [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is:

X: height of seaweed.

X~N(μ;σ²)

μ= 10 cm

σ= 2 cm

You have to find the value of the variable X that separates the bottom 0.30 of the distribution from the top 0.70

P(X≤x)= 0.30

P(X≥x)= 0.70

Using the standard normal distribution you have to find the value of Z that separates the bottom 0.30 from the top 0.70 and then using the formula Z= (X-μ)/σ translate the Z value to the corresponding X value.

P(Z≤z)= 0.30

In the body of the table look for the probability of 0.30 and reach the margins to form the Z value. The mean of the distribution is "0" so below 50% of the distribution you'll find negative values.

z= -0.52

Now you have to clear the value of X:

Z= (X-μ)/σ

Z*σ= X-μ

X= (Z*σ)+μ

X= (-0.52*2)+10= 8.96

The value of seaweed height that divides the bottom 30%  from the top 70% is 8.96 cm

I hope this helps!

Jimmy went to the toy store. He saw 23 wooden trains and 41 plastic trains.how many more plastic trains than wooden trains did h
joja [24]
To find out d answer to dis we need to subtract d amount of plastic trains by d amount of wooden trains. d answer will be d answer to your question. lets do it:-

41 - 23 = 18
Jimmy sees 18 more plastic trains than wooden trains.

CHECK OUR WORK:-

18 + 23 = 41
We were RIGHT!!

So, Jimmy sees 18 more plastic trains than wooden trains.

Hope I helped ya!! xD
