The percentage of the runners who have times less than 14.4 sec is  0.15%

The times of all 15-year old who run a certain race are approximately normally distributed with a given mean of 18 sec and a standard deviation of 1.2 sec.

We know that,

where,

X = raw score = 14.4

μ = mean = 18

σ = standard deviation = 1.2

Putting the values,

Finding the probability from the z score table, we get

P(z < -3) = 0.00135 = 0.135%

Toby bought 8 hotdogs and 5 fries. It cost $34.00
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Each hot dog = $3

Each french fry = $2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets define our variables:

x = Hotdog

y = fries

Next, you need to set up a cost equation for both Toby and Bernie:

8x + 5y = 34

2x + 6y = 18

Now, we need to isolate one of the variable:

2x + 6y = 18

2x = 18 - 6y

x = 9 - 3y

Next, we need to insert this equation back into the first equation (8x+5y = 34) to find the cost of y (fries):

8x +5y = 34

8 (9-3y) + 5y = 34

72 - 24y + 5y = 34

72 - 19y = 34

19y = 38

y or fries = $2

Finally, we need to find the cost of each hotdog by using the cost of fries ($2) in one of the formulas:

2x + 6y = 18

2x + 6(2) = 18

2x + 12 = 18

2x = 6

x or hotdog = $3

I hope this helps!

Solving a word problem involving rates and time conversion
OLEGan [10]
Distance = rate x time
Distance = 221 miles
Rate = 68 mph
221 miles = 68 mph x time
221 miles/68 mph = time
3.25 hours = time

Phil has two rectangular prisms. The height of the second prism is 1/2 times the height of the first prism. The lengths and widt
Vesnalui [34]

The volume of the second prism is also ten times the volume of the first prism.

Let's assume that both prisms have:

width = 3 units

height = 4 units

Prism 1 length = 5 units

Prism 2 length = 50 units

Let's solve their respective volumes to compare...

Volume of prism 1 = length * width * height

                             = 5 * 3 * 4

                             = 60 units ^3

Volume of prism 2 = 50 * 3 * 4

                             = 600 units ^3

Prism 2/ prism 1 = 10

That means prism 2 is ten times the volume of prism 1.
