Answer:

9 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question

Jesse has $3.40 in quarters and nickels

Quarters = q = number of quarters

1 quarter = $0.25

nickels = n = number of nickels

1 nickel = $0.05

Hence,

0.25q + 0.05n = $3.40 .......Equation 1

The number of nickels is 5 more than 2 times the number of quarters.

n = 2q + 5

0.25q + 0.05n = $3.40 .......Equation 1

0.25q + 0.05(2q + 5) = 3.40

0.25q + 0.10q + 0.25= 3.40

0.35q = 3.40 - 0.25

0.35q = 3.15

q = 3.15/0.35

q = 9

Therefore, Jessie has 9 quarters.

The ages of armadillos are normally distributed, with a mean of 14 years and a standard deviation of 1.2. Approximately what per
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = 79.052%f using Standard Normal Distribution Tables

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know from normal distribution: z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD

where x = targeted value; Mu = Mean of Normal Distribution; SD = Standard Deviation of Normal Distribution

Therefore using given data: Mu = 14, SD = 1.2 we have z(x) by using z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD as under:

Approach 1 using Standard Normal Distribution Table:

z for x=17: z(17) = (17-14)/1.2 gives us z(17) = 2.5

z for x=13: z(13) = (13-14)/1.2 gives us z(13) = -0.83

Afterwards using Normal Distribution Tables we find the probabilities as under:

P(17) using z(17) = 2.5 gives us P(17) = 99.379%

Similarly we have:

P(13) using z(13) = -0.83 gives us P(13) = 20.327%

Finally in order to find out the probability between 17 & 13 years we have:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = P(17) - P(13) = 99.379% - 20.327% = 79.052%

The standard normal distribution table is being attached for yours easiness.

Approach 2 using Excel or Google Sheets:

P(17) = norm.dist(17,14,1.2,1)

P(13) = norm.dist(13,14,1.2,1)

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = { P(17) - P(13) } * 100

Which equation represents the line that passes through points (1, -5) and (3,-17)
zvonat [6]

Answer:

A) y=-6x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-17-(-5))/(3-1)

m=(-17+5)/2

m=-12/2

m=-6

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-5)=-6(x-1)

y+5=-6(x-1)

y=-6x+6-5

y=-6x+1
