Answer:

8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

i put equations as this:

x+40 = y

where x is galllons of pure mixture and y is the gallons of the new mixture

the other equation i id was:

x+0.2(40) = 0.25y

x+8 = 0.25y

y = 4x+32

solve using substitution

(x+40) = 4x+32

x = 4x-8

-3x = -8

x = 8/3

Someone please help me answer this!!
marin [14]

Answer:

c = 85 in is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 36 in

b = 77 in

c = ?

According to the Pythagoras theorem,

a² + b² = c²

36² + 77² = c²

1296 + 5929 = c²

7225 = c²

c = 85 in

∴ c = 85 in is the length of the missing leg.

leva [86]

Answer:

250 boys attended the conference.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, divide 750 by 3 (one-third of the conference is boys) and you will get 250 (number of boys). If you wanted to find the number of girls too, you would simply double 250 to get 500 girls.

A farmer wants to know which of two fertilizers will yield the most produce. He sets up twenty random plots of equal size on one
Elanso [62]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

A)

Mean for:

Sample Z --  447.5

Sample Y-- 409.3

B)

Sample Y has larger deviation from the mean.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Z Plots      Y Plots  

 456          395

 454          390

 449          391

 453          402

 431           395

 456          405

 445          432

 430          438

 463          420

 438          425

A)

For sample Z--

The mean is calculated by:

Ratio of sum of all the data points of Z-sample to the total number of points i.e. 10.

Mean=\dfrac{456+454+449+453+431+456+445+430+463+438}{10}\\\\Mean=\dfrac{4475}{10}\\\\Mean=447.5

Similarly for sample Y--

The mean is calculated as follows:

Mean=\dfrac{395+390+391+402+395+405+432+438+420+425}{10}\\\\\\Mean=\dfrac{4093}{10}\\\\Mean=409.3

B)

As we could see that the data Y has a greater spread from the mean as compared to the sample Z.

As all the points in the sample Z are close to the mean and have less spread.

The standard deviation is most commonly used to measure the spread of the data.

Standard deviation of sample Z is: 10.651

Standard deviation of sample Y is: 16.9944

Hence Sample Y have larger deviation from the mean.
