A person must score in the upper 2% of the population on an IQ test to qualify for membership in Mensa, the international high IQ society. If IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. what score must a person have to qualify for Mensa? If required, round your answers to nearest whole number.£

Given:

The quadratic equation is:

[tex]3x^2+x-5=0[/tex]

To find:

The solution for the given equation rounded to 2 decimal places.

Solution:

Quadratic formula: If a quadratic equation is [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex], then:

[tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

We have,

[tex]3x^2+x-5=0[/tex]

Here, [tex]a=3,b=1,c=-5[/tex]. Using the quadratic formula, we get

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1\pm \sqrt{1^2-4(3)(-5)}}{2(3)}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1\pm \sqrt{1+60}}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1\pm \sqrt{61}}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1\pm 7.81025}{6}[/tex]

Now,

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1+7.81025}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=1.13504167[/tex]

[tex]x\approx 1.14[/tex]

And

[tex]x=\dfrac{-1-7.81025}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=-1.468375[/tex]

[tex]x\approx -1.47[/tex]

Therefore, the required solutions are 1.14 and -1.47.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule is that opposite angles are supplementary. Therefore, angle A plus angle C = 180:

angle A + 43 = 180 and

angle A = 180 - 43 so

angle A = 137

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides with -16. ALWAYS remember that if you divide any number with a negative number, this "< ≤ > ≥" symbols have to change to the opposite direction

Answer:

12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]s_1 = 10mi/h[/tex] --- walk speed

[tex]s_2 = 20mi/h[/tex] --- jog speed

[tex]d = 2\ miles[/tex] --- distance

Required

The time to walk the given distance

Time is calculated as:

[tex]Time = \frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]

In this case, the speed is the speed at which she walks.

So, we have:

[tex]Time = \frac{d}{s_1}[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]Time = \frac{2mi}{10mi/h}[/tex]

[tex]Time = 0.2hr[/tex]

Convert to minutes

[tex]Time = 0.2 * 60mins[/tex]

[tex]Time =12mins[/tex]

I assume you're supposed to find the limit as n approaches infinity, not x.

You have

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{4^n-5.3^n+1}{2.4^n+2} = \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\left(\dfrac4{5.3}\right)^n-\left(\dfrac{5.3}{5.3}\right)^n+\dfrac1{5.3^n}}{\left(\dfrac{2.4}{5.3}\right)^n+\dfrac2{5.3^n}} \\\\ = \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\left(\dfrac4{5.3}\right)^n-1+\dfrac1{5.3^n}}{\left(\dfrac{2.4}{5.3}\right)^n+\dfrac2{5.3^n}}[/tex]

For |x| < 1, we have lim |x|ⁿ = 0 as n goes to infinity. Then each exponential term converges to 0, which leaves us with -1/0. This means the limit is negative infinity.

On the other hand, perhaps you meant to write

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{4^n-5\times3^n+1}{2\times4^n+2}[/tex]

The same algebraic manipulation gives us

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\left(\dfrac44\right)^n-5\left(\dfrac34\right)^n+\dfrac1{4^n}}{2\left(\dfrac44\right)^n+\dfrac2{4^n}} = \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1-5\left(\dfrac34\right)^n+\dfrac1{4^n}}{2+\dfrac2{4^n}}[/tex]

Again the exponential terms converge to 0, but this time we're left with the limit 1/2.

Answer:

The range is the set of possible output values, which are shown on the y-axis. Keep in mind that if the graph continues beyond the portion of the graph we can see, the domain and range may be greater than the visible values.

Step-by-step explanation;

The range of a function is the set of y-coordinates of all the points int he graph of the function.

Look at the graph. The vertex is point (2, -3).

The graph does not go lower than that point.

The lowest y-coordinate is -3.

The graph goes up forever on both sides until infinity.

The range is all numbers greater than or equal to -3.

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

In a survey of women in a certain country ( ages 20-29), the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches.  Answer the following questions about the specified normal distribution.  (a) What height represents the 99th percentile?  (b) What height represents the first quartile?  (Round to two decimal places as needed)

Solution :

Let the random variable X represents the height of women in a country.

Given :

X is normal with mean, μ = [tex]62.9[/tex] inches and the standard deviation, σ = [tex]2.81[/tex] inches

Let,

[tex]$Z=\frac{X - 62.9}{2.81}$[/tex] , then Z is a standard normal

a). Let the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile is = a

The point a is such that,

[tex]$P(X<a)=0.99$[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{a-62.9}{2.81} \right) = 0.99$[/tex]

From standard table, we get : [tex]P( Z < 2.3263) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(a-62.9)}{281} = 2.3263$[/tex]

  [tex]$a= (2.3263 \times 2.81 ) +62.9$[/tex]

     = 6.536903 + 62.9

     = 69.436903

     = 69.5 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile = 69.5 inches.

b). Let b = height represents the first quartile.

It is given by :

[tex]P( X < b) =0.25[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81} \right) = 0.25$[/tex]

From the standard normal table,

[tex]P( Z < -0.6745) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81}= 0.6745$[/tex]

[tex]$b=(0.6745 \times 2.81) +62.9$[/tex]

  = 1.895345 + 62.9

   = 64.795345

   = 64.8 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the 1st quartile is 64.8 inches.

[tex] \bf \: y = 2 {x}^{2} - 6x - 8[/tex]

It is equation of a parabolla.

It is to be noted that the graph of y = 2x * 2-6x-8 which when simplified is  y = -12x² - 12x. is attached accordingly.

The graph of y = -12x² - 12x is a downward-opening parabola.

It has a concave shape and its vertex is the highest point on the graph. The axis of symmetry is a vertical line passing through the vertex.

The graph may intersect or be tangent to the x-axis at two points, one point, or no points, depending on the discriminant.

Answer: [tex]9\times 11\ ft^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Height is [tex]2\ ft[/tex] more than its width

Suppose the width is [tex]x[/tex]. So, height becomes [tex]x+2[/tex]

Area of the painting is [tex]99\ ft^2[/tex]

Area is the product of width and height

[tex]\therefore 99=x(x+2)\\\Rightarrow 99=x^2+2x\\\Rightarrow x^2+2x-99=0\\\Rightarrow x^2+11x-9x-99=0\\\Rightarrow (x+11)(x-9)=0\\\Rightarrow x=-11,9[/tex]

Neglect the negative values

[tex]\text{Width =}9\ ft\\\text{height =}9+2=11\ ft[/tex]

Answer:

Domain = all real numbers

range = -1<= y <= 1

The domain of y=cosx is all real numbers and the range is -1 ≤ y ≤ 1.

The range of 'x' of a function is known as the domain of definition of a function and the range of 'y' of a function is known as the range of the function.

The function is continuous for all real values of 'x'.

Hence, the domain of the function is all real numbers.

The upper limit value of cosx =1 and lower limit value of cosx = -1 .

Hence, the range of the function is -1 ≤ y ≤ 1.

Answer:

Pentagon = 72°

Octagon = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the measure of one exterior angle in a regular pentagon;

n = number of sides

180 - (180 x n-2/n)

180 - (180 x 5-2/5)

180 - (180 x 3/5)

Complete question is;

The height h, in feet, of a projectile t seconds after launch is modeled by the equation h = 32t – 16t². How long after launch does the projectile return to the ground?

Answer:

2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the height function is given by;

h = 32t – 16t²

Now, the velocity will be the derivative of the height equation.

Thus;

v(t) = dh/dt = 32 - 32t

Now, for projectiles, at max height, v = 0.

Thus;

32 - 32t = 0

32t = 32

t = 32/32

t = 1 s

It will take the same time it took to get to Max height as it will to get to ground from that height.

Thus, total height = 1 + 1 = 2 seconds

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{\text{9 quarters}}[/tex]

We can let x = dimes and y = quarters.

We know that one dime = $0.10 and a quarter = $0.25, so:

$3.05 = $0.10x + $0.25y

And:

17 = x + y

Solve the system of equations. We can rearrange the bottom equation to create an expression equal to y:

17 - x = y

Substitute this into the top equation for y:

3.05 = 0.10x + 0.25(17 - x)

Distribute and simplify:

3.05 = 0.10x + 4.25 - 0.25x

3.05 = 4.25 - 0.15x

Solve for x:

-1.2 = -0.15x
