Mary Beth and her family ate a meal in a restaurant the cost of the meal was $34.50 the sales tax was 8% of the cost of the meal

The total cost would be the tax plus the cost of the meal. In order to find the tax you can set up a proportion: 8/100=x/34.5. Then you can cross multiply: (100•x)=(8•34.5). Then we have 100x=276. Divide both sides by 100 and we have x=2.76. This added to the 34.50 is equal to 37.26. Hope this helps!

N = x + y - n = 5 and part two x = u + v = o whats the answer?

Colt1911 [192]

Just substitute the value of x from second equation into first equation:
N = x + y - n = 5
N = u + v + y - n = 5
N = 0 + y - n = 5

In short, N would be equal to y - n which is still equal to 5

Hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP!!!! 25 POINTS!!!!

Answer:

0.9562

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability is mathematically expressed as:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Given that p=0.18, n=5 , is calculated as:

$P(X\leq 2)=P(0)+P(1)+P(2)\\\\={5\choose 0}0.18^0(1-0.18)^5+{5\choose 1}0.18^1(1-0.18)^4+{5\choose 2}0.18^2(1-0.18)^3\\\\=0.3707+0.4069+0.1786\\\\=0.9562$

Hence, the probability of no more than 2 successes in 5 trials is 0.9562

Rata-rata markah matematik untuk Amin, azman dan aziz adalah 73. Tanda Azman lebih 35 berbanding Amin manakala aziz dua kali gan

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The Amin's score in math was 46.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is:

The average math score for Amin, azman and aziz is 73. Azman marks 35 more than Amin while aziz is twice that of Amun. What is Amin's sign?

Solution:

Let us denote that:

x = Amin's score in math

y = Azman's score in math

z = Aziz's score in math.

The average of x, y and z is, 73.

That is:

$\frac{x+y+z}{3}=73\\\\\Rightarrow x+y+z = 219$

Now it is provided that:

$y=x+35...(i)\\z=2x...(ii)$

Use the equations (i) and (ii) to determine the value of x as follows:

$x+y+z=219\\\\x+x+35+2x=219\\\\4x=184\\\\x=46$

Thus, the Amin's score in math was 46.

How to determine if Triangles are Congruent?

IRISSAK [1]

So basically what you have to do is first identify all of the sides or angles that equal eachother then you can see if you did a side side and side in a row etc, like 44 would be SAS because the vertical angles would be inbetween the two sides. 46 would be SSS because after you make the line in the middle for reflexive property you can see that there are three sides in a row. If this didnt help i recommend looking on Khan Academy
