3 years ago:
m - 3 = 3(b - 3)
m - 3 = 3b - 9
m + 6 = 3b
m/3 + 2 = b

5 years from now:
m + 5 = 2(b + 5)
m + 5 = 2b + 10
m - 5 = 2b
m/2 - 5/2 = b

combine:
m/3 + 2 = m/2 - 5/2

1. multiply by 6
2m + 12 = 3m - 15

2. add 15 - 2m to both sides
27 = m

Marry is 27 years old.

Assuming the amount of money college students spend on text books each semester is symmetrical with a mean of 500 and a standard
TiliK225 [7]

16% percent of the students paid MORE than Jane.

The mean(μ) of money spent on textbooks is 500

The standard deviation(σ) of money spent on textbooks is 50

Money paid by Jane for her books is $550

We will use this formula,

Ζ=x-μ/σ

To find: the percentage of students paid MORE than Jane for the textbooks

P(X > 550)=?

Solution:

P(X > 550)=1-P(X≤550)

=1-P(Ζ≤\frac{550-500}{50} )

=1-P(Ζ≤ 1)

=1-0.8413

=0.1587

≈16%

Therefore, 16% percent (approx) of the students paid MORE than Jane.
