In your US History class, you have scores of 78, 89, 87 and 96 on the first four tests. To get a B, the average of the five test

s must be greater than or equal to 80 and less than 90. Solve an inequality to find the range of the scores needed on the fifth test to get a B

Let x be the score of the fifth test. 

a) let's find the value of x so that to get 80. To that end use the average notion:
(78+89+87+96+x)/5 = 80
(350 + x)/5 = 80. Cross multiplication
350+x = 400  and x = 50

b) let's find the value of x so that to get 90. To that end use the average notion:
(78+89+87+96+x)/5 = 90
(350 + x)/5 = 0. Cross multiplication
350+x = 450  and x = 100

Then the value of x should be:

50 < x < 100

Well, since it is asking for an average, we have to add
78+89+87+96=
350... then we divide by 4
which would be 87.5 which IS greater than 80 :)
and less than 90 :)

A store is having a sale in which all items are reduced by 20%. Including tax, Jennifer paid $21 for a pair of shorts. If the sa
Tju [1.3M]

Answer: the original price of the shorts was $25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the original price of the shorts.

The store is having a sale in which all items are reduced by 20%. This means that the amount of discount on the shorts is

20/100 × x = 0.2x

The price of the shorts would be

x - 0.2x = 0.8x

If the sales tax is 5%, then the amount of sales tax charged is

5/100 × 0.8x = 0.04x

The final cost of the shorts would be

0.8x + 0.04x = 0.84x

Including tax, Jennifer paid $21 for a pair of shorts. This means that

0.84x = 21

x = 21/0.84

x = 25

The length (in centimeters) of a typical Pacific halibut t years old is approximately f(t) = 200(1 − 0.956e−0.18t). Suppose a Pa
horsena [70]

Answer:

7.2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

f(t) =200(1 - 0.956e^{-0.18t})

where f(t) is the length and t is the number of years old

given the Mike measures 148 cm, we need to find out the age

So we plug in 148 for f(t) and solve for t

148 =200(1 - 0.956e^{-0.18t})

divide both sides by 200

\frac{148}{200} = 1 - 0.956e^{-0.18t}

Now subtract 1 from both sides

-0.26= - 0.956e^{-0.18t}

Divide both sides by -0.956

\frac{0.26}{0.956} =e^{-0.18t}

Now take ln on both sides

\frac{0.26}{0.956} =e^{-0.18t}

ln(\frac{0.26}{0.956} )=-0.18tln(e)

ln(\frac{0.26}{0.956} )=-0.18t

divide both sides by -0.18

t=7.2

So 7.2 years

HELP PLEASE!!!
TiliK225 [7]

Problem 1

Answer: Independent

The reason why is because each bag is separate from one another, so one event doesn't affect the other. If we know the result of what we pulled out of one bag, it doesn't change the probability of the other event.

======================================

Problem 2

Answer: Dependent

Assuming you do not put the first card back, then the probability of picking a King on the second draw will be different than if you picked a King on the first draw. With all 52 cards in the deck, the probability of getting a king is 4/52 = 1/13. It changes to 4/51 after we picked out an ace for the first card (and didn't put that first card back).

On a number line, point S has coordinate 4.8 and point T has coordinate –2.3.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

The only answer that would work would be D) | 4.8 - ( -2.3) |

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the distance is the absolute value of the difference of the two numbers. B and C would also work, but the 2.3 is not negative. A does not work because it is addition.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

I think it might be 30pi m or 94.2 m.

Step-by-step explanation: So you are finding the perimeter of the circle. You have a radius of 15, the perimeter for a circle is C=2pir. Now we can do  C=2pi(15). The answer is 30pi or C=2 x 3.14 x 15= 94.2 Hope this helps.
