A box is filled with pennies, nickels, and dimes in a ratio of 2:3:4. If the total number of coins in the box is 1620, how many

We could say that the number of pennies is 2x, nickels are 3x, and dimes are 4x. Adding all of them together, we get 2x+3x+4x=9x. We also know that 9x=1620 because the total amount of coins is 1620. Dividing by 9 on both sides we get x=180.
Pennies equal 2x= 2*180=360

PLEASE HELP I NEED THIS TURNED IN,
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

3/3 is equivilant to 1.

Multiplying 6/4 by 1, would be 6/4. Also, multiplying 6/4 by 3/3 would be 18/12, which could be simplified to 6/4.

Hope this helps!

You roll two standard number cubes. What is the probability that the sum is odd, given than one of the number cubes shows a 1?
Virty [35]
 It's not specified whether 1 is the 1st or 2nd roll: HOWER:

The 1st Roll is "1": P(odd sum/the 1st Roll is 1)
What is the sample space of all numbers starting with "1":
{(1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6),} = 6
the couple of add sum=(1,2), (1,4), (1,6), =3
P(odd sum/ 1st is 1) = 3/6 =1/2
or in applying the formula:

P(odd sum/the 1st Roll is 1) =P(odd sum ∩ 1) / P(getting "1") it will give the same probability = 1/2

NOW if the 2nd Roll is "1", it 's still 1/2

If bolt thread length is normally distributed, what is the probability that the thread length of a randomly selected bolt is Wit
KatRina [158]

Answer:

a) 0.5762

b) 0.0214

c) 0.2718

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that lengths of the bolt thread are normally distributed. So in order to find the required probability we can use the concept of z distribution and z scores.

Part a) Probability that length is within 0.8 SDs of the mean

We have to calculate the probability that the length of a bolt thread is within 0.8 standard deviations of the mean. Recall that a z- score tells us that how many standard deviations away a value is from the mean. So, indirectly we are given the z-scores here.

Within 0.8 SDs of the mean, means from a score of -0.8  to +0.8. i.e. we have to calculate:

P(-0.8 < z < 0.8)

We can find these values from the z table.

P(-0.8 < z < 0.8) = P(z < 0.8) - P(z < -0.8)

= 0.7881 - 0.2119

= 0.5762

Thus, the probability that the thread length of a randomly selected bolt is within 0.8 SDs of its mean value is 0.5762

Part b) Probability that length is farther than 2.3 SDs from the mean

As mentioned in previous part, 2.3 SDs means a z-score of 2.3.

2.3 Standard Deviations farther from the mean, means the probability that z scores is lesser than - 2.3 or greater than 2.3

i.e. we have to calculate:

P(z < -2.3 or z > 2.3)

According to the symmetry rules of z-distribution:

P(z < -2.3 or z > 2.3) = 1 - P(-2.3 < z < 2.3)

We can calculate P(-2.3 < z < 2.3) from the z-table, which comes out to be 0.9786. So,

P(z < -2.3 or z > 2.3) = 1 - 0.9786

= 0.0214

Thus, the probability that a bolt length is 2.3 SDs farther from the mean is 0.0214

Part c) Probability that length is between 1 and 2 SDs from the mean value

Between 1 and 2 SDs from the mean value can occur both above the mean and below the mean.

For above the mean: between 1 and 2 SDs means between the z scores 1 and 2

For below the mean: between 1 and 2 SDs means between the z scores -2 and -1

i.e. we have to find:

P( 1 < z < 2) + P(-2 < z < -1)

According to the symmetry rules of z distribution:

P( 1 < z < 2) + P(-2 < z < -1) = 2P(1 < z < 2)

We can calculate P(1 < z < 2) from the z tables, which comes out to be: 0.1359

So,

P( 1 < z < 2) + P(-2 < z < -1) = 2 x 0.1359

= 0.2718

Thus, the probability that the bolt length is between 1 and 2 SDs from its mean value is 0.2718
