Answer:

3/8 pounds of meat

Step-by-step explanation:

7/8 pounds of ham

= 0.875 pounds of ham

1 3/8 pounds of turkey

= 11/8 pounds of turkey

=  1.375 pounds of turkey

Pounds of meat

P_meat = 0.875 pounds of ham + 1.375 pounds of turkey

P_meat  = 2.25 pounds of meat

Jon puts 1/6 of the meat on each sandwich

P_meat/6 = 3/8 pounds = 0.375 pounds

klio [65]

Answer:

Sarah can have the plumber work on her faucet for six (6) hours maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi

As Sarah has only $234.50 in her savings and the plumber charges $50 just to come to her home, so left-over $184.50 of her saving for pay work hours.

Then as the plumber charges $30.75 per hour we have that \frac{\$ 184.50}{\$ 30.75/h}=6h is the maximum amount of hours that Sarah can have the plumber work on her faucet.

Tom caught 4 fish and his son caught 12 fish. The number of fish that Tom’s caught was what percent of the number of fish his so
Fofino [41]

Answer:

33.3 % (Approx) percent of fish that Tom’s caught  of the number of fish his son caught .

25% is the percent of the total amount Tom caught.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Percentage = \frac{Part\ value\times 100}{Total\ values}

Part First

As given

Tom caught 4 fish and his son caught 12 fish.

Here

Part value = 4

Total value = 12

Put in the formula

Percentage = \frac{4\times 100}{12}

Percentage = \frac{400}{12}

Percentage = 33.3 % (Approx)

Therefore the 33.3 % (Approx) percent of fish that Tom’s caught  of the number of fish his son caught .

Second Part

As given

Tom caught 4 fish and his son caught 12 fish.

Total number of fish caught = 4 + 12

                                              = 16

Part value = 4

Total value = 16

Put in the formula

Percentage = \frac{4\times 100}{16}

Percentage = \frac{400}{16}

Percentage = 25%

Therefore the 25% is the percent of the total amount Tom caught.

Solve <br>-25 = -3x + 2<br>4x - 2 = 18<br>3- 6x + 5 + 10x - 1<br>​
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Ok, so if the top line (-25 = -3x + 2) is separate and the second line is separate (4x - 2 = 18) then the answer is x = 9 and  x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Can you please elaborate on what the equations are? I will still answer the question.

Suppose the heights of 18-year-old men are approximately normally distributed, with mean 65 inches and standard deviation 4 inch
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>a)</u>

  • Given that ; X ~ N ( µ = 65 , σ = 4 )
  • P ( 64 < X < 66 )

From application of normal distribution ;

  • Z = ( X - µ ) / σ, Z = ( 64 - 65 ) / 4,  Z = -0.25
  • Z = ( 66 - 65 ) / 4,  Z = 0.25

Hence, P ( -0.25 < Z < 0.25 ) = P ( 64 < X < 66 ) = P ( Z < 0.25 ) - P ( Z < -0.25 ) P ( 64 < X < 66 ) = 0.5987 - 0.4013

  • P ( 64 < X < 66 ) = 0.1974

b) X ~ N ( µ = 65 , σ = 4 )

  • P ( 64 < X < 66 )

From normal distribution application ;

  • Z = ( X - µ ) / ( σ / √(n)), plugging in the values,
  • Z = ( 64 - 65 ) / ( 4 / √(12)) = Z = -0.866
  • Z = ( 66 - 65 ) / ( 4 / √(12)) = Z = 0.866

P ( -0.87 < Z < 0.87 )

  • P ( 64 < X < 66 ) = P ( Z < 0.87 ) - P ( Z < -0.87 )
  • P ( 64 < X < 66 ) = 0.8068 - 0.1932
  • P ( 64 < X < 66 ) = 0.6135

c) From the values gotten for (a) and (b), it is indicative that the probability in part (b) is much higher because the standard deviation is smaller for the x distribution.
