Answer:

Sweater =400 grams

Hat =80 grams

Scarf =75 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of wool used to make a sweater, a hat and a scarf=555 grams

Let the amount of wool used to make a sweater be = x

The amount of wool for the sweater =x/5

The amount of wool used for the scarf=x/5 -5

Total amount of wool used = x+(x/5)+(x/5-5)

x+x/5 +x/5-5=555

Multiply all through by the LCM 5

5x+x+x-25=2775

7x=2800

x=400

Sweater =400 grams

Hat=400/5=80 grams

Scarf =400/5 -5=75 grams

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

107.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Midpoint (S)____F

S y 93 95 97 99 101 103 105 107 109 111 f 19 25 38 17 12 10 5 4 4 2

Calculating the mean and standard deviation using a calculator :

The mean(m) of the data above = 98.12

Standard deviation (sd) = 4.02

Proportion = 99% of population

From z table = 2.33

Using :

Zscore =(x - m) / sd

2.33 = (x - 98.12) / 4.02

2.33 * 4.02 = x - 98.12

9.3666 = x - 98.12

9.3666 + 98.12= x

x = 107.4866

X = 107.50

Find the length of base PQ in the trapezoid.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

PQ = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem:  The length of the median of a trapezoid is the average of the base lengths.

\frac{PQ + 12}{2}  = 16

PQ + 12 = 32

PQ = 20

See how easy that is if you know the theorem!
