Answer: the number of students in each van is 11

the number of students in each bus is 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of students in each van.

Let y represent the number of students in each bus.

Group a filled 2 vans and 5 buses with 202 students. This means that

2x + 5y = 202 - - - - - - - - -1

Group b filled 10 vans and 13 buses with 578 students. This means that

10x + 13y = 578 - - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 10 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes

20x + 50y = 2020

20x + 26y = 1156

Subtracting

24y = 864

y = 864/24 = 36

Substituting y = 36 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 5×36 = 202

2x + 180 = 202

2x = 202 - 180 = 22

x = 22/2 = 11

Quality control studies for Speedy Jet Computer Printers show the lifetime of the printer follows a normal distribution with mea
Anika [276]

Answer:

About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Quality control studies for Speedy Jet Computer Printers show the lifetime of the printer follows a normal distribution with

mean \mu = 4 and standard deviation  \sigma = 0.78

If the company wishes to replace no more than 10% of the printers.

To find : How long should Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed ?

Solution :

Using Z- table,  

Z value corresponding to 10% or 0.10 = -1.28.

Applying z-score formula,

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

The value of x is given by,

x=(z\times \sigma)+\mu

Substitute the values,

x=(-1.28\times 0.78)+4

x=-0.9984+4

x=3.0016

So, approx 3 years.

Therefore, About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

Find three solutions of the equation y = 7x – 5.
soldi70 [24.7K]
 y=7x-5 This is the same as saying y-7x = -5 Well easy. You just make up numbers that make this work. Let x be 1 y-7=-5 y=-5+7 y=2 So one ordered pair is (1,2) Let x=2 y-14=-5 y=9 So another ordered pair is (2,9) Let x=3 y-21=-5 y=-5+21 y=16 So another ordered pair is (3,16) 
hope it helps
