Answer:

I am guessing about 150 - 200 students did not buy a yearbook.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's assume that there are 1,000 or so students in the school. 856 would be a little over 4/5 of 1,000 just as 8 would be 4/5 of 10.

Solve 5n + 6 = -3n - 10
Verizon [17]

Hi there! :)

Answer:

\huge\boxed{n = -2}

5n + 6 = -3n - 10

Solve for n:

Add 3n to both sides:

5n + 3n + 6 = -3n + 3n - 10

8n + 6 = -10

Subtract 6 from both sides:

8n + 6 - 6 = -10 - 6

8n = -16

Divide both sides by 8:

8n/8 = -16/8

n = -2.

A researcher was testing the number of popcorn kernels that popped out of a mini bag of 100 kernels after being cooked for the s
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The percentage of the bag that should have popped 96 kernels or more is 2.1%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of popcorn kernels that popped out of a mini bag.

The mean is, <em>μ</em> = 72 and the standard deviation is, <em>σ</em> = 12.

Assume that the population of the number of popcorn kernels that popped out of a mini bag follows a Normal distribution.

Compute the probability that a bag popped 96 kernels or more as follows:

Apply continuity correction:

P( X\geq 96)=P( X>96+0.50)

                 =P( X>96.50)\\=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{96.50-72}{12})\\=P(Z>2.04)\\=1-P(Z

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

The probability that a bag popped 96 kernels or more is 0.021.

The percentage is, 0.021 × 100 = 2.1%.

Thus, the percentage of the bag that should have popped 96 kernels or more is 2.1%.

Given s(x) = 2x - 3 and t(x) = 5x + 4. Find the formula and domain for v(x) = s (x) / t (x) and w(x) = t (x) / s (x)
Liula [17]
V(x) = (2x - 3)/(5x + 4)
The domain is all Real numbers except x = -4/5, because if x = -4/5 the denominator would be zero and you cannot divide by zero.
{x | x ∈ R, x ≠ -4/5}

w(x) = (5x + 4)/(2x - 3)
similarly, x ≠ 3/2
so, {x| x ∈ R, x ≠ 3/2}
