Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The worth of a penny is 1 cent = 1/100 = $0.01

The worth of a nickel is 5 cents = 5/100 = $0.05

Let x represent the number of pennies that she could have. Lucy has some pennies and some nickels. She has a maximum of 15 coins. If lucky has 6.999999999999999, it means that

6.999999999999999 + x ≥ 15

x ≥ 15 - 6.999999999999999

x ≥ 8

If the 15 coins worth a minimum of $0.47combined, it means that

0.05(6.999999999999999) + 0.01x ≤ 0.47

0.35 + 0.01x ≤ 0.47

0.01x ≤ 0.47 - 0.35

0.01x ≤ 0.12

x ≤ 0.12/0.01

x ≤ 12

Therefore, the possible values for the number of pennies that she could have is 8 ≤ x ≤ 12

Find the exact length of the third side
Mumz [18]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 13 is the hypotenuse. With this we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this problem.

Let the third side be x.

13^2=12^2+x^2

169=144+x^2

169-144=x^2

25=x^2

x=5

Solved.

Suppose that the mean score on a creativity test is 16 and the standard deviation is 4. You are told that the distribution is no
Savatey [412]

Answer:

P(12

And we can find this probability on this way:

P(-1

We expect around 68.27% between the two scores provided.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(16,4)  

Where \mu=16 and \sigma=4

We are interested on this probability

P(12

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(12

And we can find this probability on this way:

P(-1

We expect around 68.27% between the two scores provided.

Find three consecutive odd integers such that the sum of the smallest and four times the largest is 61. Please list the numbers
Kipish [7]

Answer:

9,11,13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: sum of the smallest integer and four times the largest integer out of three consecutive odd integers is 61

To list: numbers from least to greatest

Solution:

Let the three consecutive odd integers be x,x+2,x+4.

According to question,

x+4(x+4)=61\\x+4x+16=61\\5x=61-16\\5x=45\\x=9

So, the integers are x=9,x+2=9+2=11,x+4=9+4=13

Numbers from least to the greatest: 9,11,13

16. The graph of the function
den301095 [7]

\text{Hello there!}\\\\\text{Our original equation is: y = 4x + 1}\\\\\text{Our new equation must be translated 3 units up}\\\\\text{This means that we're going up on the y axis, meaning that our}\\\text{"beginning point" will change}\\\\\text{Our beginning point is 1, so just add 3 to it}\\\\1+3 = 4\\\\\text{Put 4 as your beginning point in the equation:}\\\\y=4x+4\\\\\boxed{\text{Answer: y = 4x + 4}}
