Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
5, 10, 0
Discussion:
Let "f" be the first number. Then the questions tells us that
f + 2f + (f-5) = 15 =>
f + 2f + f - 5 = 15 => add 5 to both sides
4f = 5+ 15 = 20 => divide both sides by 4
f = 20/4 = 5
The numbers as
f: 5
2f: 10
(f-5): 0
Thank you,

Answer:
15.9% of babies are born with birth weight under 6.3 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
Mean, μ = 6.8 pounds
Standard Deviation, σ = 0.5
We are given that the distribution of birth weights is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.
Formula:
P(birth weight under 6.3 pounds)
P(x < 6.3)
Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

15.9% of babies are born with birth weight under 6.3 pounds.
Answer:
Incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, the first number is x, and the second number is y. Given, the second number is 125% of the first number. So, the equation will be
y = 1.25 x
Or, y= 5/4x
Now, multiplying it with 4/5, we get, x= 4/5y
Or, x= 0.80 y
But, Brad is saying the first number must be 75% of the second number. But here we see that the first number is 80% of the second number. That's why Brad is incorrect.
