3(x+4)=(1/2)x-8 => 3x+12=(1/2)x-8 we will multiply equation with number 2 and we get 6x+12 = x-16 => 6x-x=-16-24 => 5x=-40 => x=-8
Good luck!!!
Answer:
The probability that the weight of a randomly selected steer is between 920 and 1730 lbs
<em> P(920≤ x≤1730) = 0.7078 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>
Given mean of the Population = 1100 lbs
Standard deviation of the Population = 300 lbs
Let 'X' be the random variable in Normal distribution
Let x₁ = 920

Let x₂ = 1730

<u><em>Step(ii)</em></u>
The probability that the weight of a randomly selected steer is between 920 and 1730 lbs
P(x₁≤ x≤x₂) = P(Z₁≤ Z≤ Z₂)
= P(-0.6 ≤Z≤2.1)
= P(Z≤2.1) - P(Z≤-0.6)
= 0.5 + A(2.1) - (0.5 - A(-0.6)
= A(2.1) +A(0.6) (∵A(-0.6) = A(0.6)
= 0.4821 + 0.2257
= 0.7078
<u><em>Conclusion:-</em></u>
The probability that the weight of a randomly selected steer is between 920 and 1730 lbs
<em> P(920≤ x≤1730) = 0.7078 </em>
Median: 80
lower quartile: 65
upper quartile: 95
Step-by-step explanation:
Let F represent fruitshake and C chocolate milkshake
one fruitshake cost more 2R more than chocolate shake and
3F + 5C = R78,00
Then (78 - 6) ÷ 8 = 9
a fruitshake costs R11,00 and chocolate milkshake costs 9R,00
X- speed of the ship in still water
a- speed of current
(x+a)- speed with current
(x-a) - speed against current
(x+a)*3=72
(x-a)*4=72
x+a=24
<u>+ x-a=18
</u> 2x =42
x = 21
x+a=24, 21+a=24, a=3
The speed of the ship in still water = 21 km/h,
the speed of the current =3 km/h.
