Answer: 12 blue marbles

Step-by-step explanation: Set up a proportion.

4/5 = x/15

Solve for x, the number of blue marbles. Cross multiply. You will get 60 = 5x

Divide by 5 on each side.

x = 12

There are 12 blue marbles.

Solve 8x+2y=13 and 4x+y=11 using substitution

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

No Solution

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+2y=13 4x+y=11 Subtract 4x on both sides to isolate y

y=-4x+11 <---- Substitute this equation into the

equation 8x+2y=13

8x+2(-4x+11)=13

8x-8x+22=13

22=13 (not true)

No Solution

A random variable x follows a normal distribution with mean d and standard deviation o=2. It is known that x is less than 5 abou

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The mean of this distribution is approximately 3.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's how to solve this problem using a normal distribution table.

Let $z$ be the

$\displaystyle z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ .

In this question, $x = 5$ and $\sigma = 2$ . The equation becomes

$\displaystyle z = \frac{5 - \mu}{2}$ .

To solve for $\mu$ , the mean of this distribution, the only thing that needs to be found is the value of $z$ . Since

The problem stated that $P(X \le 5) = 69.85\% = 0.6985$ . Hence, $P(Z \le z) = 0.6985$ .

The problem is that the normal distribution tables list only the value of $P(0 \le Z \le z)$ for $z \ge 0$ . To estimate $z$ from $P(Z \le z) = 0.6985$ , it would be necessary to find the appropriate

Since $P(Z \le z) = 0.6985$ and is greater than $P(Z \le 0) = 0.50$ , $z > 0$ . As a result, $P(Z \le z)$ can be written as the sum of $P(Z < 0)$ and $P(0 \le Z \le z)$ . Besides, $P(Z < 0) = P(Z \le 0) = 0.50$ . As a result:
