Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate z-score firstly
z-score = (x-mean)/SD = (2.75-2.5)/0.25 = 0.25/0.25 = 1
P( x greater than or equal to 2.75) = P(z greater than or equal to 1)
= 1 - p(z <1)
P(z<1) from table = 0.84134
1-p(z<1) = 0.15866 or 15.866%

B On their way back they had more baggage in the car and spend $601 for 174 gallons of gas. Based on the same ratio as in Part (a), how many gallons of gas did they buy at each price?
Answer:
A) The amount of gas they bought on each coast;
East Coast = 35 gallons
Mid-US = 100 gallons
West Coast = 15 gallons
B) The amount of gas they bought on each coast on the return journey;
East Coast = 37 gallons
Mid-US = 116 gallons
West Coast = 21 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete Question
Maxis taking a cross-country road trip. Gas prices vary as the friends travel across the US from $4 dollars per gallon on the east coast to $3 in the mid-US, to $5 on the west coast.
(a) If they used twice as much gas in the mid-US than on either coast combined, and they spend $515 on gas to purchased 150 gallons of gas, how many gallons of gas did they buy at each price?
The answer to this question is East Coast - 35 gal, Mid-US - 100 gal, West Coast - 15 gal.
(b) On their way back they had more baggage in the car and spend $601 for 174 gallons of gas. Based on the same ratio as in Part (a), how many gallons of gas did they buy at each price? I don't know the answer to this one
Solution
Let the amount of fuel bought on the east coast = x gallons
Let the amount of fuel bought on the mid-coast = y gallons
Let the amount of fuel bought on the west coast = z gallons
a) - They used twice as much gas in the mid-US than on either coast combined
y = 2(x + z) = 2x + 2z (eqn 1)
- They spend $515 on gas to purchase 150 gallons of gas.
Total gallons purchased = x + y + z = 150
Total amount spent = 4x + 3y + 5z = 515
From eqn 1, y = 2x + 2z, inserting this value for y in the 2 other equations
x + y + z = x + 2x + 2z + z = 150
3x + 3z = 150
Divide through by 3
x + z = 50 (eqn *)
4x + 3y + 5z = 4x + 3(2x + 2z) + 5z = 515
4x + 6x + 6z + 5z = 515
10x + 11z = 515 (eqn **)
x + z = 50
10x + 11z = 515
Solving the simultaneous equation,
x = 35 gallons
z = 15 gallons
y = 2x + 2z = 2(35 + 15) = 100 gallons
B) On the return journey, the ratio between x, y and z is still the same, but the total gallons and total amount spent is now different.
They used twice as much gas in the mid-US than on either coast combined
y = 2(x + z) = 2x + 2z (eqn 1)
- They spend $601 on gas to purchase 174 gallons of gas.
Total gallons purchased = x + y + z = 174
Total amount spent = 4x + 3y + 5z = 601
From eqn 1, y = 2x + 2z, inserting this value for y in the 2 other equations
x + y + z = x + 2x + 2z + z = 174
3x + 3z = 174
Divide through by 3
x + z = 58 (eqn *)
4x + 3y + 5z = 4x + 3(2x + 2z) + 5z = 601
4x + 6x + 6z + 5z = 601
10x + 11z = 601 (eqn **)
x + z = 58
10x + 11z = 601
Solving the simultaneous equation,
x = 37 gallons
z = 21 gallons
y = 2x + 2z = 2(37 + 21) = 116 gallons
Hope this Helps!!!
1/4(X-10)=2X+1
what is X?
Answer: [tex]x=-2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{1}{4}(x-10)=2x+1[/tex]
Distribute 1/4
[tex]\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}(10)=2x+1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{5}{2}=2x+1[/tex]
add 5/2
[tex]\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{5}{2}+\frac{5}{2}=2x+1+\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{4}x=2x+\frac{1*2+5}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{4}x=2x+\frac{2+5}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{4}x=2x+\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
Subtract 2x
[tex]\frac{1}{4}x-2x=2x-2x+\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{4}x-2x=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1-2*4}{4}x=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1-8}{4}x=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]-\frac{7}{4} x=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
Multiply by the negative reciprocal of -7/4 which is basically inverting the fraction -4/7
[tex](-\frac{4}{7} )-\frac{7}{4} x=\frac{7}{2}(-\frac{4}{7} )[/tex]
[tex]x=-\frac{28}{14}\\ x=-2[/tex]

how do I solve for x and y?
Answer:
x=2 y=10
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar so we can use ratios to solve
15 20
----- = -------------
x+4 8
Using cross products
8*15 = 20 (x+4)
120 = 20(x+4)
Divide each side by 20
120/20 = 20(x+4)/20
6 = x+4
Subtract 4 from each side
6-4 = x+4-4
2 =x
25 20
----- = -------------
y 8
Using cross products
25*8 = 20y
200 =20y
Divide by 20
200/20 = 20y/20
10=y

pythagorean theorem
15^2 + b^2 = 25^2
225 + b^2 = 625
b^2 = 400
b = 20
Answer:
20 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a right triangle so we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 +b^2 = c^2
where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
15^2 +b^2 = 25^2
225+b^2 = 625
Subtract 225 from each side
225+b^2 -225 = 625-225
b^2 = 400
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(400)
b = 20
A jar contains 666 red jelly beans, 444 green jelly beans, and 444 blue jelly beans.
If we choose a jelly bean, then another jelly bean without putting the first one back in the jar, what is the probability that the first jelly bean will be blue and the second will be blue as well?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
P(first blue) = 444/ 1554
P(second blue) = 443/1553
P(first blue + second blue) = 444/ 1554 * 443/1553 = 0.08
can someone tell me how to do this
Answer:
must not be
Step-by-step explanation:
The whole thing equals 360 degrees
Angle B and Angle D are equal; which equals 190 degrees.
Add Angle A to 190 degrees; which is 86 + 190 = 276.
Subtract 360, which is what the whole thing equals, and 276, which is the known angle added together, and you get 56.
In order for this to be a parallelogram, the opposite angles need to be equal.
Since they are not, the answer is must not be.

The growth of a population of bacteria can be modeled by an exponential function. The graph models the population of the bacteria colony P(t) as a function of the time t, in weeks, that has passed. The initial population of the bacteria colony was 500. What is the domain of the function? What does the domain represent in this context?
Answer:
t ≥0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the information:
The initial population: 500
The graph models the population of the bacteria colony P(t) as a function of the time t, in weeks,
=> our function is: P(t) =500*[tex]b^{t}[/tex] where b is the base number and it is ≥0
What is the domain of the function?The domain of exponential functions is all real numbers greater than zero
<=> t ≥0 (because t present for the time and time can not have negative value)
What does the domain represent in this context?t is the independent variable is this exponential function and the population of bacteria depends on the change of t.
Because it is the growth function so the range (the population of bacteria) increase over its domain (the time)

Jessie installed 12 more axles than the number of engine blocks her friend Gus installed yesterday. Write an equation for g, the number of engine blocks Gus installed yesterday.
Answer:
g = j - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that if g is Gus' number of engine quantity, then j is Jessie's number of engine quantity, from this statement we have that Jessie made 12 more than Gus, therefore:
j = g + 12
if we solve for g:
g = j - 12
which is the same as saying that Gus made 12 number of engine less than Jessie
Answer:
g = x - 12
where x is the number of axles installed by Jessie
Step-by-step explanation:
Using a simple analogy. If a man has 7 cars while his friend has 3 cars, The statement may be written as the man has 4 cars more than his friend. The 4 cars being the difference between the number of cars he has and the number his friend has.
As such, if the number of engine blocks installed by Gus is g and Jessie installed 12 more axles than the number of engine blocks Gus installed yesterday, where Jessie must have installed x axles,
x = g + 12
Such that
g = x - 12

Compound Interest Equation
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
Where:
A = Accrued Amount (principal + interest)
P = Principal Amount
I = Interest Amount
R = Annual Nominal Interest Rate in percent
r = Annual Nominal Interest Rate as a decimal
r = R/100
t = Time Involved in years, 0.5 years is calculated as 6 months, etc.
n = number of compounding periods per unit t; at the END of each period
Compound Interest Formulas and Calculations:
Calculate Accrued Amount (Principal + Interest)
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
Calculate Principal Amount, solve for P
P = A / (1 + r/n)^nt
Calculate rate of interest in decimal, solve for r
r = n[(A/P)^1/nt - 1]
Calculate rate of interest in percent
R = r * 100
Calculate time, solve for t
t = ln(A/P) / n[ln(1 + r/n)] = [ ln(A) - ln(P) ] / n[ln(1 + r/n)]

what's the answer too 7x+4y=14 ; y=6x-12 using elimination
Answer:
x = 2
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve by elimination, you have to first change the equations so that you can cancel out one variable.
Change the second one.
4y = 24x - 48
Subtract them:
7x = -24x + 62
31x = 62
x = 2
y = 0
7x+4y=14
y=6x-12
Reorder:
7x+4y=14
-6x+y=-12
Multiply bottom one by 4:
7x+4y=14
4(-6x+y=-12)
=>
7x+4y=14
-24x+4y=-48
Combine/Eliminate:

the lines below are parallel. If the green line has a slope of 5, what is the slope of the red line? Enter your answer as an integer or fraction in lowest terms
Answer: 5
Step-by-step explanation: As a rule, parallel lines will always have the same slope. What that means is that if you're told that 2 lines are parallel, the slopes will be exactly the same for both of them.
So if the green line has a slope of 5, the red
line also has a slope of 5.
