In a basketball tournament, Team A scored 5 less than twice as many points as Team B. Team C scored 80 more points than Team B.

The combined score for all three teams was 983 points. Let the variable b represent Team B’s total points. The equation representing this scenario is (2b – 5) + b + (b + 80) = 983. Team B scored 227 total points.
Which statement is true based on the information?

Team A scored 307 points.
Team C scored 307 points.
Team A scored twice as many points as Team C.

Answer:

Choice B. Team C scored 307 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Team B scored 227 points.

Choice A:

Team A: 2b - 5 = 2(227) - 5 = 454 - 5 = 449

Choice A is false.

Choice B:

Team C: b + 80 = 227 + 80 = 307

Choice B is true.

Choice C:

2 * 307 = 614

614 is not the same as 449.

Choice C is false.

Choice D:

The sum of the points is given as 983.

Choice D is false.

Answer: Choice B. Team C scored 307 points.

Answer:

72 beats per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

So if a female has a pulse rate of 80 beats per minute but her pulse rate is lowe by 10%

First, we need to find what 10% of 80 is

.10 Times 80 = 8

Now we subtract 8 from 80

80-8=72

The female has a heartbeat of 72 beats per minute (bpm)

The weight of an object on a particular scale is 155.2 lbs. The measured weight may vary from the actual weight by at most 0.4 l
alexira [117]
155.2 + 0.4 = 155.6
155.2 - 0.4 = 154.8

so it ranges from : 154.8 to 155.6

Twelve ounces of Brand X costs $1.14. Sixteen ounces of Brand Y costs $1.28. Brand X costs how much more per ounce than Brand Y.
bearhunter [10]
"Per" means "divided by", so "cost per ounce" means "cost"/"ounces".

The difference in cost per ounce is
.. (1.14/12) -(1.28/16) = .095 -.08 = 0.015

Brand X costs 1.5¢ more per ounce than Brand Y.

Suppose a graduate program has sent acceptance letters to 45 applicants, but only has enough funding for 30 students. Let the st
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

the probability that the graduate program will have enough funding for all student that join the program is 0.3653 (36.53%)

Step-by-step explanation:

since each student is independent on others the random variable X= x students of 45 applicants will join the program has a binomial probability distribution

P(X=x)= n!/[(n-x)!*x!]*p^x*(1-p)^x

where

n= total number of students= 45

p= probability that a student join the program= 0.7

x= number of students that join the program

then in order to have enough funding x should not surpass 30 students , then

P(X≤30)= ∑P(X) for x from 1 to 30 = F(30)

where F(30) is the cumulative probability distribution

then from binomial probability tables

P(X≤30)= F(30)= 0.3653 (36.53%)

therefore the probability that the graduate program will have enough funding for all student that join the program is 0.3653 (36.53%)
