The value of sigma according to the 68-95-99.7 rule is 15.
What is the 68-95-99.7 rule?This is the informal term that is used in statistics to remember the percentage of values that are in the interval of a distribution in statistics.
We have the mean = 150
the interval is given as P(120 < X < 180)
based on this rule, 95 percent of the data lies in the u - 20 and u + 20 region
Such that we would have
u - 2α < x < u + 2α = 0.95
we have
u - 2α = 120
150 - 2α = 120
2α = 150 - 120
2α = 30
divide through by 2
α = 15
Sigma is given as 15

The simplified answer of the composite function is as follows:
(f + g)(x) = 2x + 3x²(f - g)(x) = 2x - 3x²(f. g)(x) = 6x³(f / g)(x) = 2 / 3xHow to solve composite function?Composite functions is a function that depends on another function. A composite function is created when one function is substituted into another function.
In other words, a composite function is generally a function that is written inside another function.
Therefore,
f(x) = 2x
g(x) = 3x²
Hence, the composite function can be simplified as follows:
(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = 2x + 3x²
(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) = 2x - 3x²
(f. g)(x) = f(x) . g(x) = (2x)(3x²) = 6x³
(f / g)(x) = f(x) / g(x) = 2x / 3x² = 2 / 3x

Explain when you can cancel a number that is in both the numerator and denominator and when you cannot cancel out numbers that appear in both the numerator and the denominator.
Let me write here an example of a common number/term in both numerator and denominator that we can cancel.
[tex]\frac{4xy}{4}=xy[/tex]In the above example, we are able to cancel out the common number 4 because they are stand alone numbers. We can divide 4 by 4 and that is 1. Hence, the answer is just xy.
Another example:
[tex]\frac{(x+2)(x-1)}{(x+2)(2x-1)}=\frac{(x-1)}{(2x-1)}[/tex]In the above example, we are able to cancel out (x + 2) because this term is a common factor to both numerator and denominator.
In the example, we can also see that -1 is a common number however, we cannot cancel it out because the number -1 is not a standalone factor. It is paired with other number/variable. (x - 1) and (2x - 1) are both factors but are not the same, that is why, we are not able to cancel that.
Another example:
[tex]\frac{(x+2)+(x-1)}{(x+2)+(2x-1)}=\frac{(x+2)+(x-1)}{(x+2)+(2x-1)}[/tex]As we can see above, (x + 2) is a common term however, we cannot cancel it. We can only cancel common terms if they are common factors of both numerator and denominator. (Notice the plus sign in the middle. )
The term (x + 2) above is not a factor of the numerator and denominator, hence, we cannot cancel it.

Let y represent the oeiginal price of the card.. Wrote an expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the cards.
Given:
Discount - 22% = 0.22
Sales Tax - 6% = 0.06
Required:
Expression for the final cost of the cards, x
Solution:
Let: y represent the original price of the card.
x represent the final cost of the cards
D represent the discounted cost of the cards
Assume that the the sales tax is applied to the price after the discount.
D= Original Price ( 1 - Discount) = y ( 1 - 0.22) = 0.78y
To compute for the final cost,
Final Cost = D + Tax
Tax = 0.06 D
x = D + 0.6(D)
x = 1.06D
x = 1.06 ( 0.78 y)
x = 0.827y
Answer:
The final cost of the card can be describe by the expression:
x = 0.827y

Based on the experimental probability, predict the number of times that you will roll a 5 if you roll the number cube 300 timesExperiment result on previews question: The number 5 was rolled 9 times out of 20 on a previous question
Explanation: To understand this problem we need to know that there are two different types of probability. The experimental probability and the theoretical probability.
- The experimental probability occurs once you conduct the experiment and after the experiment, you calculate the probability using the result of the experiment.
- The theoretical probability occurs before the experiment. Once you have information about the situation so you calculate the probability the get a specific result before trying.
Step 1: For this question, once we have a number cube with faces 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 and we want to know the experimental probability to get a 5 once you roll the cube 300 times you would need to get in real life a number cube and to roll it 300 times. After this experiment we would get all the results of each time we roll it and we would know how many times (from 300 times) we got a number 5. After that, we would use the following formula
[tex]Experimental_{probability}=\frac{number\text{ of times we got a number 5}}{300}[/tex]Once the get this result we finish the question.

Solution:
An equation of the circle with center (h,k) and radius r is:
[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]This is called the center-radius form of the circle equation.
Now, in this case, notice that the center of the circle is (h,k) = (-3,3) and its radius is r = 3 so that the center-radius form of the circle would be:
[tex](x+3)^2+(y-3)^2=3^2[/tex]To obtain the general form, we must solve the squares of the previous equation:
[tex](x+3)^2+(y-3)^2-3^2\text{ = 0}[/tex]this is equivalent to:
[tex](x^2+6x+3^2)+(y^2-6y+3^2)\text{ - 9 = 0}[/tex]this is equivalent to

Answer:
P = 0.04
Explanation:
The probability is equal to the number of options where the first spinner is landing on the color pink and the second spinner is landing on the number 5 divided by the total number of options.
Since there is only one option that satisfies the condition P5 and there are 25 possible outcomes, the probability is:
