Answer:

Age of Mel is 25 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,the sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39. If Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age.

Let 'x' be the Ali's age  and 'y' be the Mel's age

<u>To find the value of x and y</u>

sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39

⇒ x + y = 39    ------(1)

  Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age

⇒ y = 2x - 3   -------(2)

⇒  2x - y = 3  -----(3)

(1) + (3) ⇒  

 x + y = 39

2x - y = 3

----------------

3x   = 42

x = 42/3 = 14

y = 2x - 3 = 14*2 - 3  = 25

Therefore the age of Ali = 14

Age of Mel = 25

If A = 30° and r = 12, find x. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Margaret [11]

Answer:

\boxed{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 30° and r = 12

\sin A = \frac{r}{r + x}

\sin 30 = \frac{12}{12 + x}

\frac{1}{2} = \frac{12}{12 + x}

1(12 + x) = 2(12)

12 + x = 24

x = 24 - 12

x = 12

.

Looks like all you have to do it multiply the numbers together; there is no application of the Distributive Property to these problems.

1. Flight 202's arrival time is normally distributed with a mean arrival time of 4:30
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Let the random time variable, X = 45min; mean, ∪ = 30min; standard deviation, α = 15min

By comparing P(0 ≤ Z ≤ 30)

P(Z ≤ X - ∪/α) = P(Z ≤ 45 - 30/15) = P( Z ≤ 1)

Using Table

P(0 ≤ Z ≤ 1) = 0.3413

P(Z > 1) = (0.5 - 0.3413) = 0.1537

∴ P(Z > 45) = 0.1537

2)  By compering (0 ≤ Z ≤ 15) ( that is 4:15pm)

P(Z ≤ 15 - 30/15) = P(Z ≤ -1)

Using Table

P(-1 ≤ Z ≤ 0) = 0.3413

P(Z < 1) = (0.5 - 0.3413) = 0.1587

∴ P(Z < 15) = 0.1587

3) By comparing P(0 ≤ Z ≤ 60) (that is for 5:00pm)

P(Z ≤ 60 - 30/15) = P(Z ≤ 2)

Using Table

P(0 ≤ Z ≤ 1) = 0.4772

P(Z > 1) = (0.5 - 0.4772) = 0.0228

∴ P(Z > 60) = 0.0228
