A snack cart sells lemonade for $2 and hot dogs for $5. The vendor sold 86 items today for a total of $330. Which equation is tr
Alborosie

Let h be the number of lemonade sold. If the vendor sold 86 items today and h of them are lemonade, then the rest are hot dogs, so he sold 86-h hot dogs.

When you add the number of sold lemonade and hot dogs, then you get 86 items in total:

h+(86-h)=86.

This equation is exactly the same as equation

(86-h)+h=86.

Moreover,

1. if a snack cart sells lemonade for $2, then he gets $2h for h sold lemonade;

2.  if a snack cart sells hot dogs for $5, then he gets $5(86-h) for (86-h) sold hot dogs.

In total he gets $330, then

2h+5(86-h)=330.

Both these equations are true, but only first is among given options.

Answer: correct choice is B.

some psychologists believe that a genius should be defined as anyone having an IQ over 140. If IQ scores are normally distribute
denis23 [38]

Answer:

61,239,550

Step-by-step explanation:

We let the random variable X denote the IQ scores. This would imply that X is normal with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 17. We proceed to determine the probability that an individual chosen at random from the population would be a genius, that is;

Pr( X>140)

The next step is to evaluate the z-score associated with the IQ score of 140 by standardizing the random variable X;

Pr(X>140)=Pr(Z>\frac{140-100}{17})=Pr(Z>2.3529)

The area to the right of 2.3529 will be the required probability. This area from the standard normal tables is 0.009314

From a population of 6,575,000,000 the number of geniuses would be;

6,575,000,000*0.009314 = 61,239,550
