Val and tony get paid per project. val is paid a project fee of $44 plus $12 per hour. tony is paid a project fee of $35 plus $15 per hour. write an expression to represent how much a company will pay to hire both to work the same number of hours on a project.

Determine if the following statement is true or false. the normal curve is symmetric about its​ mean, mu. choose the best answer below. a. the statement is false. the normal curve is not symmetric about its​ mean, because the mean is the balancing point of the graph of the distribution. the median is the point where​ 50% of the area under the distribution is to the left and​ 50% to the right.​ therefore, the normal curve could only be symmetric about its​ median, not about its mean. b. the statement is true. the normal curve is a symmetric distribution with one​ peak, which means the​ mean, median, and mode are all equal.​ therefore, the normal curve is symmetric about the​ mean, mu. c. the statement is false. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, it is impossible for any distribution to be symmetric about the mean. d. the statement is true. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, all distributions are symmetric about the mean.

Which expression is equivalent to (5x^7+7x^8) − (4x^4−2x^8)? a. 9x^8 + 5x^7−4x^4 b. 3x^8 + 7x^7 c. 12x^8 − 2x^4 d. 5x^8 + 5x^7 + 4x^4
