Let x be the number of apples in Box B. The number of apples in box A is equal to x+125. After transferring 1/5 of the apples from A to B will give us the equation of,
                             ((x)+(1/5)(x+125) - (4/5)(x+125) = 15
The value of x from the equation is 225. Therefore, the number of apples in Box A and B are 350 and 225, respectively.

Is this equation a linear function? If so give the intersepts 12x+3y=6
Katarina [22]
Dear Mendozaaj55, 12x + 3y = 6 is a linear function. To find the y-intercept set x = 0 and solve --> 3y = 6 --> y = 2. Therefore, the y-intercept is (0,2). To find the x-intercept, set y = 0 and solve. 12x = 6 ---> x = .5---> the x-intercept is the coordinate (.5, 0). Best.

While conducting experiments, a marine biologist selects water depths from a uniformly distributed collection that vary between
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m is 0.55.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable <em>X</em> denote the water depths.

As the variable water depths is continuous variable, the random variable <em>X</em> follows a continuous Uniform distribution with parameters <em>a</em> = 2.00 m and <em>b</em> = 7.00 m.

The probability density function of <em>X</em> is:

f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{b-a};\ a

Compute the probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m as follows:

P(2.25

                               =\frac{1}{5.00}\int\limits^{5.00}_{2.25} {1} \, dx\\\\=0.20\times [x]^{5.00}_{2.25} \\\\=0.20\times (5.00-2.25)\\\\=0.55

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m is 0.55.

Directions: Find the volume of each figure. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

square-based pyramid:

volume V = (⅓)b²h

    = (⅓)7²·16  

    ≅ 261.3 ft³

:::::

Can't help with question 3. I haven't learned triangle-based pyramids.

:::::

cone:

volume V = ⅓πr²h

              = ⅓π17²·20

              = 6052.8 yd³

:::::

can't help with question 7. Never did this kind of pyramid.
