If Sam bought a wagon for $50:00 and he paid 10% sales tax. How much did Sam pay for the wagon?

1 answer:

8 0

Sam would have paid 55 dollars. Since the sales tax is 10%, you would find 10% of 50, which is 5. Then add five to the 50 dollar wagon price to find the total cost of 55 dollars.

Write an inequality that compares-6, 3, and 5

olga_2 [115]

Is that 6 or negative 6? I'll do both situations, as I can't tell (sorry!)

With negative 6:

-6 < 3 < 5

With positive 6:

3 < 5 < 6

If 45 mL of H2O are required to mix 100 g of casting plaster, how many milliliters would you need for 250 g of plaster ?

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer is 112.5 mL

You add 45 and another 45 to get 90 mL for 200g, and divide 45 by 2 to get 22.5 for the 50g left and you add all up 90+22.5=112.5

Answer:

The first quartile of the distribution of gas mileage is 19.6925 mpg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 23, \sigma = 4.9$

What is the first quartile of the distribution of gas mileage?

The first quartile has a proportion of 0.25. So this is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.25. It happens between Z = -0.67 and Z = -0.68, so i am going to use $Z = -0.675$
