Answer:

The number is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Model this with an equation:

Difference means subtraction.

let x represent the number

2x - 7 = 17

2x = 24   <= isolate x to solve

x = 12

The number is 12.

Kayla Can buy 2 pounds of bananas for $7. Write an equation to represent the cost , c, for b bananas.
gregori [183]
Well this is kind of difficult because we have no way to determine a constant for each banana; however, we can still formulate an equation to form some sort of solution.

2 \: lbs \: bananas = 7 \: dollars
Divide both sides by two:

1 \: lbs \: bananas = 3.50 \: dollars


Now, we can continue to go forward as long as know how many pounds each banana bunch weighs and how many bananas are in the bunch.

We could say there are "x" bananas in each pound of bananas:

x \: bananas \div 1 \: lbs \: bananas = 3.50 \: dollars
Or:

b \div 1 \: lbs \: bananas = 3.50c
Or to isolate "c":

(b \div 1 \: lbs \: bananas) \div 3.50 = c

damaskus [11]

Answer:

0.4459

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random age variable, X = 4.5; mean,∪ = 4.8; standard deviation, α = 2.2

By comparing P ( 0≤ Z ≤ 4,8)

P(Z ≤ X - ∪/α) = P(Z ≤ 4.5 - 4.8/2.2) = P(Z ≤ - 0.136)

Using the table: P(0≤ Z ≤ 1) = 0.0541

P(Z > 1) = (0.5 - 0.0541) = 0.4459

∴ P(Z > 4.5) = 0.4459
