Answer: The number of shirts he bought = 5 and the number of pants he bought = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of shirts

y = Number of pants

As per given , we have the following linear equations :

x+y=10-------------(1)\\\\15x+40y=225-------(2)

Multiply (15) to the equation (1) , we get

15x+15y=150----------------(3)

Eliminate equation (3) from (2) , we get

25y=125\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{125}{25}=5

Put value of y in (1) , we get

x+5=10\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=5

Hence, the number of shirts he bought = 5 and the number of pants he bought = 5.

Weights of American adults are normally distributed with a mean of 180 pounds and a standard deviation of 8 pounds. What is the
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

15.87% probability that a randomly selected individual will be between 185 and 190 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 180, \sigma = 8

What is the probability that a randomly selected individual will be between 185 and 190 pounds?

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 190 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 185. So

X = 190

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{190 - 180}{8}

Z = 1.25

Z = 1.25 has a pvalue of 0.8944

X = 185

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{185 - 180}{8}

Z = 0.63

Z = 0.63 has a pvalue of 0.7357

0.8944 - 0.7357 = 0.1587

15.87% probability that a randomly selected individual will be between 185 and 190 pounds

Suppose that 35 people are divided in a random mannerinto two teams in such a way that one team contains10 people and the other
Alisiya [41]

To be precise, the size of your sample space is <span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span>. This number does go on the bottom of the fraction, and what goes on top is the size of the event. Break up the event into independent events 1. choose the 2 defective bulbs, and 2. choose the remaining 8 bulbs. I don't have much choice in event 1. There is only one way to choose both of the defective balls. In other words, <span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span></span> (choosing 2 defective bulbs from a set of 2 defective bulbs). For event 2, there are <span><span>24−2=22</span><span>24−2=22</span></span> nondefective bulbs, and I must choose <span>88</span> of them, so that's <span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span>. Finally, since events 1 and 2 are independent, we multiply the answers for the combined event: <span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span></span>

<span><span>P=<span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span><span>P=<span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span></span>

Or, since <span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span>=1</span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span>=1</span></span>,

<span><span>P=<span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span><span>P=<span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span></span>

Hope this helps!
