To answer this question you have to create a system of equations. The first equation will be that Devi's money (x) equals her brother's money (y), or x = y. The next equation would be that (3/5)x + (7/10)y = 78. You than can substitute x in for y because x = y. The equation would know be (3/5)x + (7/10)x = 78. You then combine the like terms to create an equation of (13/10)x = 78. Then, multiply both sides by 10 / 13 in order to isolate x. This will create the equation x = 60. This means that Devi and her brother each had 60 dollars. You then find out how much they spent and add it together. You can do so with the equation (2/5)x + (3/10)y = z, with z being total money spent. You substitute 60 in for x and for y then solve. When you solve you see that 24 + 18 = z, or that z equals 42. In other words, they spent 42 dollars altogether.
Answer:
i)The correct option is D.) 99.74%
ii) The correct option is B.) 68.26%
Step-by-step explanation:
i) P(10≤X≤70) = P( (10−40)/10 ≤Z≤ (70−40
)/10 ) = Pr(−3≤Z≤3)
= 0.9987 - 0.0013 = 0.99734
Therefore the percentage of Jen's monthly phone bills are between $40 and $100 is D.) 99.74%
ii)P(2.1≤X≤3.1) = P( (2.1 − 2.6) /0.5 ≤ Z ≤ (3.1−2.6
)/0.5) = Pr(−1 ≤Z ≤1)
)
= 0.8413 − 0.1587 = 0.6826
Therefore the percentage of students at college have a GPA between 2.1 a,d 3.1 is B.) 68.26%
So, here we have an exponential function.
Remember that an exponential function has the form:
Where a represents an initial amount, and r is the rate of this amount to change. (Increase, or decrease).
So, given that the population of City A in 2000 was 40 thousand people and the population increased by 13% each year, we can say that
So,
For city B:
But something different happens with city C. This is not an exponential function, this is a linear function.
So,
= 7 2/5 - 1 4/5
= 37/5 - 9/5
= 28/5
In short, Your Answer would be: 28/5 or 5 3/5
Hope this helps!
