Let x = the total cost of gas, dollars.

Originally, each of the three friends was to pay x/3 dollars each.
Finally, with two more friends added, the cost became x/5 dollars each.

The savings for each of the original three friends is $11, therefore
x/3 - x/5 = 11
(2x)/15 = 11
x = (11*15)/2 = $82.50

Answer: The total cost of gas is $82.50

Veronika [31]

Answer:

a) 3.128

b) Yes, it is an outerlier

Step-by-step explanation:

The standardized z-score for a particular sample can be determined via the following expression:

z_i = {x_i -\bar x}/{s}

Where;

\bar x = sample means

s = sample standard deviation

Given data:

the mean shipment thickness (\bar x) = 0.2731 mm

With the standardized deviation (s) = 0.000959 mm

The standardized z-score for a certain shipment with a diameter x_i= 0.2761 mm can be determined via the following previous expression

z_i = {x_i -\bar x}/{s}

z_i = {0.2761-0.2731}/{ 0.000959}

z_i = 3.128

b)

From the standardized z-score

If [z_i < 2]; it typically implies that the data is unusual

If [z_i > 2]; it means that the data value is an outerlier

However, since our z_i > 3 (I.e it is 3.128), we conclude that it is an outerlier.

Can someone help please
finlep [7]

Answer:

x=7 y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

-x+6y=11

2x-3y=5

-2x+12y=22

2x-3y=5

Add both equations

-2x+2x-3y+12=22+5

9y=27

y=3

plug y back in

-x+18=11

-x=-7

x=7
