Answer:

15 49-cent stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem with the equations <em>0.49(x) + 0.21(y) = 9.45 </em>and <em>x - 5 = y</em>. Well, 0.49(15) + 0.21(10) = 9.45, so we know that there are 15 49-cent stamps and 10 21-cent stamps. The question is asking for the number of 49-cent stamps, so we can tell Travis bought 15 49-cent stamps.

Hope this helps! Plz give me brainliest, it will help me achieve my next rank.

Heights of male students in the eighth grade are normally distributed with a mean of 57.2 in. and standard deviation of 2.4 in.
romanna [79]
<span>In statistics finding percentiles relates to the standard deviation and something called a z-score. For normally distributed data the z-score represents how many standard deviations above or below the mean that group is a part of. The z-score for normally distributed data for the 90th percentile is 1.28. The standard deviation is then multiplied by the z-score to find, in this case, the shotlrtest height needed to be in the 90th percentile of this population. In this case to be in the 90th percentile your height must be 60.27 inches.</span>
