Emily is dividing 15 pounds of jelly beans into 3/4 lb. bags. How many individual bags will she need for all of the jelly beans?

1 answer:

3 0

X= # of individual bags

x= 15 lbs ÷ 3/4 lbs
15 is the same as 15 over 1
x= 15/1 ÷ 3/4
multiply by reciprocal of 3/4
x= 15/1 * 4/3
x= (15*4)/(1*3)
x= 60/3
x= 20

ANSWER: She will need D) 20 bags

Hope this helps! :)

According to a human modeling project, the distribution of foot lengths of women is approximately Normal with a mean of 23.4 ce

stiv31 [10]

Answer: 22.0.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : According to a human modeling project, the distribution of foot lengths of women is approximately Normal with $\mu=23.3\ cm$ and $\sigma=1.3\ cm$ .

In the United States, a woman's shoe size of 6 fits feet that are 22.4 centimeters long.

Then, the probability that women in the United States will wear a size 6 or smaller :-

$P(x\leq22.4)=P(z\leq\dfrac{22.4-23.4}{1.3})\ \ [\because z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\\approx P(z\leq-0.77)\\\\=1-P(z\leq0.77)\\\\=1-0.77935=0.2206499\approx0.2206=22.06\%$

Hence, the required answer = 22.0.6%
