Given:
12 rectangular planks
2 sides per plank
Length = 8 ft
Width = 3 ft

Area of a rectangle = Length * Width.
A = 8ft * 3ft
A = 24 ft²

24 ft² x 2 sides of a plank = 48 ft²
48 ft²/plank * 12 planks = 576 ft² is the total area Alex needs to varnish.

576 ft² ÷ 125 ft² = 4.608 pint or round to 5 pints

5 pints x $3.50/pint = $17.50 Total cost that Alex need to spend to varnish all the wooden planks.

Identify a possible first step using the elimination method to solve the system and then find the solution to the system. 3x - 5
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x - 5y = - 2 → (1)

2x + y = 3 → (2)

Multiply (2) by 5 will eliminate y when added to (1), that is

10x + 5y = 15 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term

(3x + 10x) + (- 5y + 5y) = (- 2 + 15)

13x = 13 ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into (2) for corresponding value of y

2 + y = 3 ⇒ y = 3 - 2 = 1

Solution is (1, 1)

An art history professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme.A: Top 5% of scoresB: Scores below th
adoni [48]

Answer:

Grade B score:

76 \leq x \leq 89    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 73.3

Standard Deviation, σ = 9.7

We are given that the distribution of score on test is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

B: Scores below the top 5% and above the bottom 62%

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.62

P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62  

= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62  

=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.38  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 0.305\\\\x = 76.26  

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.05

P(X < 0.95) = \\\\P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.95

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 1.645\\\\x = 89.26  

Thus, the numerical value of score to achieve grade B is

76 \leq x \leq 89
