<u></u><u>The correct answer is 47.5%, or 0.475.</u>
Explanation:
The empirical rule states that in any normal distribution:
68% of data will fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean;
95% of data will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean; and
99.7% of data will fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
The mean is 500 and the standard deviation is 100. This means that 700 is 2 standard deviations away from the mean:
(700-500)/100=200/100=2.
We know that 95% of data will fall within 2 standard deviations from the mean. However, included in the 95% is data less than the mean and greater than the mean. Since we are only concerned with the scores from 500 to 700, we only want the half that is greater than the mean:
95/2 = 47.5%, or 0.475.
Answer:
A maximum of 43 students and 11 teachers can go to the trip.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a group of teachers and students will take a bus trip to a museum, and each teacher will lead a group of no more than 4 students, and the bus can hold a maximum of 54 teachers and students, to determine the possible numbers of teachers and students who can go on the trip, the following calculation must be performed:
4 + 1 = 5
54/5 = X
10.8 = X
10 x 4 = 40
10 x 1 = 10
4 - 1 = 3
Therefore, a maximum of 43 students and 11 teachers can go to the trip.
Apply the negative exponent rule, so move the expression to the denominator to make the exponents positive.
Your answer is:

r^7 + s^12
Look carefully at the first pair: (−3, 9), (−3, −5) Note that x does not change, tho' y does. This is how we recognize a vertical line (whose slope is undefined). The equation of this vertical line is x = -3.
Looking at the second pair: from (3,4) to (5,6), x increases by 2 and y by 2; thus, the slope is m = rise/run = 2/2 = 1.
Third pair: as was the case with the first pair, x does not change here, and thus the equation of this (vertical) line is x=0 (which is the y-axis). The slope is undefined.
Answer:
Steak sandwich = x = 4
Cheese fries = y = 1.75
Taco salad = z = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Steak sandwich = x
Cheese fries = y
Taco salad = z
This week:
x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 - - - - (1)
Last week :
2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - - (2)
Two weeks ago :
x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)
Taking (1) and (2)
x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 ___(1)
2x + 3y + z = 15.25 ___(2)
Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 1 and subtract
2x + 4y + 4z = 23
2x + 3y + z = 15.25
_______________
y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4)
Taking (2) and (3)
2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - (2)
x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)
Multiply (2) by 1 and (3) by 2 and subtract
2x + 3y + z = 15.25
2x + 8y + 2z = 26
______________
-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5)
Lets solve (4) and (5)
y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4) - - - multiply by 5
-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5) - - - multiply by 1
Then add the result :
5y + 15z = 38.75
-5y - z = - 10.75
____________
14z = 28
z = 28 / 14
z = 2
To find y ; put z = 2 in (4)
y + 3z = 7.75
y + 3(2) = 7.75
y + 6 = 7.75
y = 7.75 - 6
y = 1.75
From equation 3 ;
x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)
x + 4(1.75) + 2 = 13
x + 7 + 2 = 13
x + 9 = 13
x = 13 - 9
x = 4
Hence,
Steak sandwich = x = 4
Cheese fries = y = 1.75
Taco salad = z = 2
