Answer:

lost 150

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Dante's pennies

Y = Mia's pennies

X + Y = 350                                       1/2 X = 2/3 Y

                                                               X = 4/3 Y

4/3 Y + Y = 350

7/3 Y = 350

Y = 350 * 3/7

Y = 50 * 3

Y = 150

X + 150 = 350

X = 200

                                                    1/2 * 200 = 2/3 * 150

                                                      100 .      =   100

Answer:

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Dante's pennies

Y = Mia's pennies

X + Y = 350                                       1/2 X = 2/3 Y

                                                                X = 4/3 Y

4/3 Y + Y = 350

7/3 Y = 350

Y = 350 * 3/7

Y = 50 * 3

Y = 150

X + 150 = 350

X = 200

                                                     1/2 * 200 = 2/3 * 150

                                                       100 .      =   100

1/2 * 200 = 100 -> Dante lost 100 pennies

1/3 * 150 = 50 -> Mia lost 50 pennies

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.

Drupady [299]
Mu=80, sigma=39, X=85
Z=(X-mu)/sigma = 5/39=0.128=0.13
P(X<=85)= 0.5517 (from Z-table)
so, P(X>85)=1-0.5517=0.4483 approx. thats 44.8% probability.

Suppose the circumference of a circle is 4, pi. What is its diameter?
Vilka [71]
Your answer would be 4, because the equation for the circumference of a circle is π × diameter, so if you have 4 × π as the circumference, then 4 is the diameter.

I hope this helps!
