Answer:

after 3 hours of instruction.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, start by setting up the equation.

Leda charges an initial fee, meaning this fee is only going to be one time. However, there is an hourly rate of 11. Since we do not know how many hours these piano lessons are going to last, we put a variable (I will use x), after this number.

The initial fee is 8.50. There needs to be a variable after 11 because that is the number we don't know.

The equation for Leda's lessons are <em>8.50+11.00x. </em>

Now, we need to find out what the equation for Thanh's lessons are going to be, because we're going to be setting both equations equal to each other to find out when they cost the same. At the moment both equal each other, is when they are the same amount.

Thanh's equation also has an intial fee and an hourly rate. So, the equation will be

<em>10.00+10.50x. </em>

Now we solve.

<em>8.50+11.00x = 10.00+10.50x </em>

First, subtract from both sides. We will do the numbers without variables first.

<em>8.50+11.00x = 10.00+10.50x </em>

<em>-8.50               -8.50 </em>

<em>____________________</em>

<em>0     +11.00x =   1.50 +10.50x</em>

Then, subtract the x's. (taking away the zero because it is equivalent to nothing)

<em>11.00x =   1.50 +10.50x</em>

<em>- 10.50x            -10.50x</em>

<em>__________________</em>

<em>0.50x = 1.50 </em>

Lastly, to find out the answer, we divide.

1.50/0.50= 3.

<u>To check your answer, you can plug into the original equation. </u>

<em>8.50+11.00 times 3 = 10.00+10.50 times 3 </em>

Both sides equal 41.50, meaning they are equal to each other!

18 meters by 14 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

18 meters by 14 meters

Area of rectangle is base times height (AKA length times width or however you wish to call the dimensions).

This question is a system of equations question. We can make two equations. We know that every rectangle must have 2 "lengths" and 2 "widths" (4 sides in a rectangle). Since Maria only has 64 meters of fencing, we get the equation:

2L+2W = 64

Now we know the area enclosed must be 252 so we have:

L* W = 252

Rewriting the second equation we get:

Plug this into first equation to get:

(multiply everything by L)

Solving the quadratic tells us L can be 18 or 14. Let's consider if L is 18 first by plugging 18 back into the second equation to get 18 * W = 252 which gives us W = 14. If we do the same for when L = 14, we get that W = 18.

Now you might wonder why we have 2 possible combinations, that's because in reality, it doesn't matter which one we label as length (L) or width (W).

a) The average height of sunflowers in a field is 64 inches with a standard deviation of 3.5 inches. Describe a normal curve for
tresset_1 [31]
The values on the horizontal axis are:
at 0 = 64
at one standard deviation (lower, upper) = (60.5 , 67.5)
at two standard deviation (lower, upper) = (57 , 71)
at three standard deviation (lower, upper) = (53.5 , 74,5)

B. P(x > 71) = 1 - P(x < 71) = 1 - P[z < (71 - 64)/3.5] = 1 - P(z < 2) = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275
Therefore the no of plants taller than 71 inches will be approximately 0.02275 * 3000 = 68
