Answer:

Each movie costs $3.75 while each video game costs $5.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of each movie and the cost of each video game be $x and $y respectively.

6x + 5y = 50 ------ equation (1)

2x + 3y = 24 ------ equation (2)

Subtract 3 times of equation (2) from equation (1):

(6x + 5y) - 3(2x + 3y) = 50 - 3(24)

    6x + 5y -  6x - 9y = 50 - 72

                           -4y = -22

                            4y = 22

                           ∴ y = 5.5

Substitute y = 5.5 into equation (2):

2x + 3(5.5) = 24

            2x = 7.5

           ∴ x = 3.75

A tire company has developed a new type of steel-belted radial tire. Extensive testing indicates the population of mileages obta
Andru [333]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given question, a tire company has developed a new type of steel-belted radial tire. Extensive testing indicates the population of mileages obtained by all tires of this new type is normally distributed with a mean of 37,000 miles and a standard deviation of 3,887 miles.

Let us define X be the random variable shows that the mileages tires normally distributed with

mean

μ = 37000

standard deviation

σ =3, 887

Therefore

X ~ (μ = 37000, σ =3,887)

The company wishes to offer a guarantee providing a discount on a new set of tires if the original tires purchased do not exceed the mileage stated in the guarantee. Therefore the  guaranteed mileage be if the tire company desires that no more than 2 percent of the tires will fail to meet the guaranteed mileage is determined as:

P(X < k) = 0.02

\Rightarrow P\left ( \frac{X-\mu }{\sigma }\leq \frac{k-\mu }{\sigma } \right )=0.02&#10;\\\\P\left ( Z \leq \frac{k-37,000 }{3,887 } \right )=0.02

From the standard normal curve 2% area is determined as -2.0537 and hence

\frac{k-37,000}{3,887}=-2.0537\\\\k=37000-7982.7319\\\\k=29017.2681\\\\\Rightarrow k=29018

If we consider z value at two decimal places then

\frac{k-37,000}{3,887} =-2.05\\\\\Rightarrow k=29032&#10;

Therefore the  guaranteed 29032 mileage be if the tire company desires that no more than 2 percent of the tires will fail to meet the guaranteed mileage.

The area under the standard normal curve is determined as:

Ben and Alyssa play a game in which they earn the same number of points for each goal and lose the same number of points for eac
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Each goal gives 5 points and a penalty costs 7 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a penalty cost = x points

And a goal gives = y points

Ben makes 7 goals and 2 penalties ending the game with 21 points,

7y - 2x = 21 --------(1)

Alyssa makes 10 goals and 8 penalties ending the game with (-6) points,

10y - 8x = -6

5y - 4x = -3 --------(2)

Equation (1) multiplied by 2, then subtracted from equation (2),

(5y - 4x) - 2(7y - 2x) = -3 - 2(21)

5y - 4x - 14y + 4x = -3 - 42

-9y = -45

y = 5

From equation (1)

7(5) - 2x = 21

35 - 2x = 21

2x = 35 - 21

2x = 14

x = 7

Therefore, each goal gives 5 points and a penalty costs 7 points.
