If the weight of the little brother is x, then the weight of Charles is x + 9
The equation that can be used to determine what each one weighs is:
x + (x + 9) = 99.
Let us now solve it.
x + x +9 = 99
2x + 9 = 99
2x = 99 - 9
2x = 90
x = 90/2
x = 45
Little brother's weight is 45 kg.
Charles' weight will be 45 + 9 = 54 kg
Adding these two weights will give 99kg
Answer:
y=-37
Step-by-step explanation:
0+6y=7(y+6)-5
0+6y=7y+42-5
6y=7y+37
-1y=37
y=-37
Libby wants to make cookies for her whole class. There are 36 students in her class. The recipe Libby is going to use only makes 12 cookies. How many batches of cookies is Libby going to have to make to feed her whole class?
36/12
<span>Let n be the number of taxis in NY. The average distance travelled is 60,000 miles, therefore the middle 95% will have the same average as the population, the reason being the mileage is symmetrically distributed about the mean Therefore the total number of miles in one year for the middle 95% is 60,000 * 0.95 * n
</span><span>The range of miles driven by the middle 95% can be found from the empirical rule that says:
For a normal distribution, approximately 95% of the data points lie within the range plus and minus 2 standard deviations of the population mean. In this case the range is
(60,000-22,000) to (60,000 + 22,000)</span>
Regroup terms:
y - 2/9 ≤ 5/9
Add 2/9 to both sides:
y ≤ 5/9 + 2/9
Simplify 5/9 + 2/9 to 7/9:
y ≤ 7/9
