Effectus [21]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em><u>Pull out like factors: </u></em>

-4x - 13  =   -1 • (4x + 13)

  • <em><u>Equation at the end of step 2: </u></em>

 -178 -  (-5x +  -4 • [4x + 13] )  = 0

  • <em><u>Pull out like factors: </u></em>

  21x - 126  =   21 • (x - 6)

  • <em><u>Equation at the end of step 4: </u></em>

 21 • (x - 6)  = 0

  • <em><u>Solve:</u></em>

x-6 = 0  

  • <em><u>Add 6 to both sides of the equation:</u></em>

x = 6

A test has a mean of 80 with a standard deviation of 4. Which of the following scores is within one standard deviation of the me
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we shall be using the z-score here

Z-score = (x-mean)/SD

From the question, mean = 80 and SD = 4

So we want to get the option in the question that has a z-score of 1 or below

Let’s look at 75

80-75 = 5 ( this is clearly above 1 standard deviation of 4)

For 77;

80 -77 = 3

This is less than the standard deviation of 4, meaning it is within 1 standard deviation of the mean

Sasha solved an equation, as shown below: Step 1: 8x = 56 Step 2: x = 56 – 8 Step 3: x = 48 Part A: Is Sasha's solution correct
bekas [8.4K]
Incorrect, she should have divided both sides by 8. The answer should be x=7. There is only 1 solution to the equation because x is raised to the first degree. It is not a polynomial equation so there won't be more than 1 answer to the equation.

Adiya said that the first step to solving the quadratic equation x2 + 6 = 20x by completing the square was to divide 6 by 2, squ
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: Adiya’s method is not correct. To form a perfect square trinomial, the constant must be isolated on one side of the equation. Also, the coefficient of the term with an exponent of 1 on the variable is used to find the constant in the perfect square trinomial. Adiya should first get the 20x term on the same side of the equation as x2. Then she would divide 20 by 2, square it, and add 100 to both sides.
