Anna has 16 nickels

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "n" be the number of nickels

Let "q" be the number of quarters

We know that,

1 nickel = $ 0.05 or 5 cent

1 quarter = $ 0.25 or 25 cent

<em><u>Anna has a collection of 45 nickels and quarters</u></em>

Therefore,

n + q = 45

q = 45 - n --------- eqn 1

<em><u>Anna has a collection of 45 nickels and quarters worth $8.05</u></em>

$ 8.05 is worth 805 cents

Thus we frame a equation as:

number of nickels x 5 cents + number of quarters x 25 cents = 805

n \times 5 + q \times 25 = 805

5n + 25q = 805 ----- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

<em><u>Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2</u></em>

5n + 25(45 - n) = 805

5n + 1125 - 25n = 805

20n = 1125 - 805

20n = 320

n = 16

Thus Anna has 16 nickels

Find the Length of ST
vfiekz [6]

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider Similarity and enlargement

To get the enlargement factor,

Take the ratio result of any two similar sides. i.e

PQ/AB = 3.6/2 = 1.8

The enlargement factor is 1.8

To get ST, consider ED then multiply it by the enlargement factor. i.e

= 5 x 1.8

= 9

Trava [24]

Answer:

88.88% probability that it endures for less than a year and a half

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be 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 question, we have that:

\mu = 66, \sigma = 10

The next career begins on Monday; what is the likelihood that it endures for less than a year and a half?

One year has 52.14 weeks. So a year and a half has 1.5*52.14 = 78.21 weeks.

So this probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 78.21.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{78.21 - 66}{10}

Z = 1.22

Z = 1.22 has a pvalue of 0.8888

88.88% probability that it endures for less than a year and a half
