mayra has $2.95 in nickels and dimes. the number of dimes is 3 less than twice the number of nickels. find the number of nickels.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mayra has 13 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent dimes with D and nickels with N.

So, from the first statement:

[tex]0.10D + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

From the second statement:

[tex]D = 2N - 3[/tex]

Required

Find N

Substitute 2N - 3 for D in [tex]0.10D + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

[tex]0.10(2N - 3) + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]0.10*2N - 0.10*3 + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

[tex]0.20N - 0.30 + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]0.20N + 0.05N = 2.95+0.30[/tex]

[tex]0.25N = 3.25[/tex]

Make N the subject:

[tex]N = \frac{3.25}{0.25}[/tex]

[tex]N = 13[/tex]

A utility company might offer electrical rates based on time-of-day consumption to decrease the peak demand in a day. Enough customers need to accept the plan for it to be successful. Suppose that among 50 major customers, 15 would accept the plan. The utility selects 10 major customers randomly (without replacement) to contact and promote the plan. a. What is the probability that exactly two of the selected major customers accept the plan

Answers

Answer:

0.2406 = 24.06% probability that exactly two of the selected major customers accept the plan

Step-by-step explanation:

The customers are chosen without replacement, which means that we use the hypergeometric distribution to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

50 major customers, 15 would accept the plan.

This means that [tex]N = 50, k = 15[/tex]

The utility selects 10 major customers randomly (without replacement) to contact and promote the plan.

This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]

a. What is the probability that exactly two of the selected major customers accept the plan

This is P(X = 2).

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,50,10,15) = \frac{C_{15,2}*C_{35,8}}{C_{50,10}} = 0.2406[/tex]

0.2406 = 24.06% probability that exactly two of the selected major customers accept the plan

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{21}{33}[/tex] simplified would be [tex]\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

The probability that they play violin or guitar is 7/11 .

What is Probability ?

Probability is the likeliness of an event to occur.

It is given that

The number of students who only play violin is 8

The number of students who only play guitar is 10

The number of Students who play both is 3

The number of students who don't play either is 12

Total Students = 8+10+3+12 = 33

Total favorable outcomes (violin or guitar) = 8 + 10 +3

Probability = Total favorable outcomes / Total outcomes

Probability = 21 / 33

Probability = 7/11

Therefore the probability that they play violin or guitar is 7/11 .

An automobile manufacturer claims that its jeep has a 59.8 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the MPG for this jeep since it is believed that the jeep has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 160 jeeps, they found a mean MPG of 59.7. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 1.3. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Enter the value of the test statistic.

Answers

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is -0.97

Step-by-step explanation:

This test is two tailed test.

Null and Alternative hypothesis is as follow

Null Hypothesis is used when it is assumed that there is no significant difference between the values.

Null Hypothesis = [tex]H_{0}[/tex] = [tex]\mu =[/tex] 59.8

The Alternative hypothesis is the alternative of the Null Hypothesis. It is an experimental technique that is used when it is assumed that there is some difference

Alternative Hypothesis = [tex]H_{a}[/tex] = [tex]\mu \neq[/tex] 59.8

Test statistcs is z

The value of test statistics can be calculated using the following formula

Test Statistics [tex]= (\bar x - \mu ) / \sigma / \sqrt n[/tex]

Test Statistics [tex]= (59.7-59.8) / 1.3 / \sqrt 160[/tex]

Test Statistics = -0.97

A farmer wants to build a rectangular pen using 20 feet of fencing, but the length is to be 4 feet more than the width. What is the length of the pen, in feet?

Answers

Answer:

The length of the rectangular pen is 40ft. The width of the rectangular pen is 20ft

Answer:

7ft

Step-by-step explanation:

2W+2L=20

2(W+L)=20

2(W+(W+4))=20

4W+8=20

4W=12

W=3

or

If 20 is the total length of fencing used, the length of the fence is to be 4 ft longer than the width, and we know this is a rectangular pen (meaning it has 4 sides), we first multiply 4 (the additional ft for the length side) by two to get 8. Next we subtract 8 from the total amount of fencing (20) to get 12. Finally, since we know there are 4 sides to a rectangle, we divide 12 by 4 to get the width. Now since the length is 4 ft longer than the width, and we are looking for the length, then we add 3+4 to equal 7.

7 is the length.

What property is that equation

Answers

Answer:

Commutative Property

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like Associative property which is when you change the GROUP, but actually it’s commutative because it didn’t change any numbers in the group, just the order of where they were.

Associative: (25 + 19) + 15 = (15 + 19) + 25

Commutative: (25 + 19) + 15 = (19 + 25) + 15

It didn’t change the numbers, only the order. Therefore, it would be commutative property

Answer:

25+19=44

44+15=59

19+25=44

44+15=59

G. 2.54
H. 36.3
I. 6(4X-3Y+2)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So Blakes sleep 8 hours per night during the school day

8 hours/night...................................100%

6.5 hours/night...................................?

6.5*100/8=81.25

the change in percentage is 100-81.25=18.75%

the percentage change is 18.75

if it is easier for you, another method is:

8-6.5=1.5 subtract the original amount to the new amount

1.5/8=0.1875 divide by the original amount

0.1875*100=18.75 find the percentage
