ben used 124.7 pounds of gravel in his front yard 110.7 pounds in his back yard.how many more pounds of gravel does ben use in h
Dovator [93]

Answer:

30.1

Step-by-step explanation:

it is subtraction because it is asking how many more pounds of gravel does Ben use in his front yard than his back yard and his front yard has a bigger number so you subtract.

136.2-106.1= 30.1

Select the solution(s) of log2x=1−log(x+4).
mart [117]

Step-by-step explanation:

log2x = 1 - log(x+4)

log2x = log10 - log(x+4)

log2x = log[10/(x+4)]

2x = 10/(x+4)

2x(x+4) = 10

2x² + 8x - 10 = 0

÷2 both sides of equation

x² + 4x - 5 = 0

(x+5)(x-1) = 0

x = -5, 1

x isn't be -5 because logA, A need to be > 0

So, x value is 1

One number is 5 times another number.their sum is 90.find the numbers.​
alexgriva [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

let both unknowns be x and y

x = 5y. ......(1)

x + y = 90. ......(2)

sub eqn (1) into eqn (2)

5y + y = 90

6y = 90

y = 90/6

= 15

sub y = 15 to eqn (1)

x = 5y

x = 5 × 15

× = 75

An insurance company has 25,000 automobile policy holders. If the yearly claim of a policy holder is a random variable with mean
telo118 [61]

Answer:

P(T>8300000)=1-P(T

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Data given

n = 25000 represent the automobile policy holders

\mu= 320 represent the population mean

\sigma =540 represent the population standard deviation

Let T the variable that represent the total of interest on this case. We can assume that the random variable for an individual policy holder is given by:

X\sim N(\mu = 540, \sigma=540)

From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

Solution to the problem

First we need to find the distribution for the random variable T like this:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}

And the total T is given by:

T=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i =n \bar X

We can find the expected value, variance and deviation for this random variable like this:

E(T)= n E(\bar X) = n \mu = 25000*320=8000000

Var(T)= Var(n\bar X)= n^2 Var(\bar X) = n^2 \frac{\sigma^2}{n}=n \sigma^2 =25000*(540^2)=7290000000

Sd(T)=\sqrt{7290000000}=85381.497

And we are interested on this probability:

P(T>8300000)

And we can use the Z score formula given by:

Z=\frac{T-E(T)}{\sigma_T}

P(T>8300000)=1-P(T
