Answer:

x=5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

8x−14=7.7x+3x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8x−14=7.7x+3x

8x+−14=7.7x+3x

8x−14=(7.7x+3x)(Combine Like Terms)

8x−14=10.7x

Step 2: Subtract 10.7x from both sides.

8x−14−10.7x=10.7x−10.7x

−2.7x−14=0

Step 3: Add 14 to both sides.

−2.7x−14+14=0+14

−2.7x=14

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.7.

−2.7x /−2.7 = 14 /−2.7

x=−5.185185 or 5.2

The average score of all golfers for a particular course has a mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 3.5 . Suppose 49 golfers p

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The probability that the average score of the 49 golfers exceeded 62 is 0.3897

Step-by-step explanation:

The average score of all golfers for a particular course has a mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 3.5

$\mu = 61$

$\sigma = 3.5$

We are supposed to find he probability that the average score of the 49 golfers exceeded 62.

Formula : $Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$Z=\frac{62-61}{3.5}$

$Z=0.285$

Refer the z table for p value

p value = 0.6103

P(x>62)=1-P(x<62)=1-0.6103=0.3897

Hence the probability that the average score of the 49 golfers exceeded 62 is 0.3897

A pitcher of water at 40 degrees Fahrenheit is placed into a 70 degree room. One hour later, the temperature has risen to 45 deg

solong [7]

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the initial temperature and the temperature after an hour is an increase of 5 degrees. Since we need to calculate the time it would take for the temperature to rise to 60 degrees we need to find the difference in degrees from the current temperature to 60 degrees.

60 - 45 = 15 degrees

Since 1 hour equals an increase of 5 degrees we need to divide 15 by 5 to calculate how many hours before the temperature increases to 60 degrees

15 / 5 = 3 hours
