The number of decorative pillows did the realtor arrange on each twin bed and queen bed is 6 and 9 respectively.

<h3>Simultaneous equation</h3>

let

  • Number of decorative pillows for twin bed = x
  • Number of decorative pillows for queen bed = y

x + y = 15

2x + y = 21

From equation (1)

x = 15 - y

  • Substitute x = 15 - y into (2)

2x + y = 21

2(15 - y) + y = 21

30 - 2y + y = 21

- 2y + y = 21 - 30

-y = -9

y = 9

Substitute y = 9 into

x + y = 15

x + 9 = 15

x = 15 - 9

x = 6

The mean time it takes to walk to the bus stop is 8 minutes (with a standard deviation of 2 minutes) and the mean time it takes
11111nata11111 [884]
(a) Average time to get to school
Average time (minutes) = Summation of the two means = mean time to walk to bus stop + mean time for the bust to get to school = 8+20 = 28 minutes

(b) Standard deviation of the whole trip to school
Standard deviation for the whole trip = Sqrt (Summation of variances)

Variance = Standard deviation ^2
Therefore,
Standard deviation for the whole trip = Sqrt (2^2+4^2) = Sqrt (20) = 4.47 minutes

(c) Probability that it will take more than 30 minutes to get to school
P(x>30) = 1-P(x=30)
Z(x=30) = (mean-30)/SD = (28-30)/4.47 ≈ -0.45
Now, P(x=30) = P(Z=-0.45) = 0.3264
Therefore,
P(X>30) = 1-P(X=30) = 1-0.3264 = 0.6736 = 67.36%

With actual average time to walk to the bus stop being 10 minutes;

(d) Average time to get to school
Actual average time to get to school = 10+20 = 30 minutes

(e) Standard deviation to get to school
Actual standard deviation = Previous standard deviation = 4.47 minutes. This is due to the fact that there are no changes with individual standard deviations.

(f) Probability that it will take more than 30 minutes to get to school
Z(x=30) = (mean - 30)/Sd = (30-30)/4.47 = 0/4.47 = 0

From Z table, P(x=30) = 0.5
And therefore, P(x>30) = 1- P(X=30) = 1- P(Z=0.0) = 1-0.5 = 0.5 = 50%
