Answer:

$3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let chocolate pie be x and apple pie be y

Darryl made $38 from 2 chocolate pies and 4 apple pies

That’s

2x + 4y = $38

Kayla made $138 from 14 chocolate pies and 12 apple pies

That’s

14x + 12y = $138

We now have two equations

Equation 1 : 2x + 4y = 38

Equation 2: 14x + 12y = 138

Multiply equation one by 12 and equation 2 by 4 to eliminate apple pie y

We have

12 x 2x + 12 x 4y = 12 x 38

4 x 14x + 4 x 12y = 4 x 138

24x + 48y = 456

56x + 48y = 552

Subtract equation equation two from one

-32x = -96

Divide both sides by -32

x = -96/-32

x = 3

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 1) = 2x - 3 + 3x

3x - 3 = 2x - 3 + 3x

0 - 3 = 2x - 3

0 = 2x

2x = 0

x = 0 ÷ 2

Please guys i really need your help and please explain how you got it please

The answer would be C because in order to find the area of a figure, you would need to multiply its height by its width. finding the area of a figure is the same as finding how many units are in a figure. because this is a square and all the sides are equal, by counting the total number of units, you can find the area.

When Carson runs the 400 meter dash, his finishing times are normally distributed with a mean of 65 seconds and a standard devia
just olya [345]

Given Information:  

Mean time to finish 400 meter dash  = μ = 65 seconds

Standard deviation to finish 400 meter dash = σ = 2.5 seconds  

Confidence level = 95%

Required Information:  

95% confidence interval = ?

Answer:  

 CI = 60 \: to \: 70 \: seconds

Step-by-step explanation:  

In the normal distribution, the empirical rule states approximately 68% of all the data lie within 1 standard deviation from the mean, approximately 95% of all the data lie within 2 standard deviations from the mean and approximately 99.7% of all the data lie within 3 standard deviations from the mean.

The confidence interval for 95% confidence limit is given by

 CI = \mu \pm 2\sigma

Since approximately 95% of all the data lie within 2 standard deviations from the mean. μ is the mean time Carson takes to finish 400 meter dash and σ is the standard deviation.

 CI = 65 \pm 2(2.5)

 CI = 65 \pm 5

 CI = 65 - 5 \: to \: 65 + 5

CI = 60 \: to \: 70 \: seconds

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval is between 60 to 70 seconds

What does it mean?  

It means that we are 95% confident that the Carson's mean to finish 400 meter dash is within the interval of (60, 70).
