a baseball and a bat cost $1.10 and if this bat costs .10 cents more than the ball. how much did the ball cost?

1 answer:

8 0

Define x:
Let the cost of the ball be x.
Ball = x
Bat = x + 0.1

The total cost is $1.10:
x + x + 0.1 = 1.1
2x + 0.1 = 1.1
2x = 1
x = 0.5

Find the cost of the bat and the ball:
ball = x = $0.50
bat = x + 0.1 = 0.5 + 0.1 = $0.60

Answer: The ball cost $0.50

11. Which of the following best describes the range of

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

D. All real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of a function is all of the possible x-values (which is easiest to understand if you can view a graph), and the domain of a function is all possible y-values.

So, you could put any x-value into this function (and it would have a corresponding y-value)

The domain [y] is limited, but the range [x] is best described as all real numbers

(if it's hard to remember which is which, d comes before r alphabetically, and x comes before y alphabetically)

Thickness measurements of ancient prehistoric Native American pot shards discovered in a Hopi village are approximately normally

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

a) 0.0869 = 8.69% probability that the thickness is less than 3.0 mm

b) 0.0668 = 6.68% probability that the thickness is more than 7.0 mm

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:

$\mu = 4.9, \sigma = 1.4$
