A sample of restaurants in a city showed that the average cost of a glass of iced tea is $1.25 with a standard deviation of 7¢.

If a new restaurant charges a price for iced tea that has a z-value of -1.25, then what is the tea’s actual cost?

Answer:

The tea's actual cost is $116.25

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the z-score

- The rule the z-score is z = (x - μ)/σ , where

# x is the score

# μ is the mean

# σ is the standard deviation

* Lets solve the problem

- The average cost of a glass of iced tea is $1.25

- The standard deviation of it is 7 cents

- A new restaurant charges a price for iced tea that has a

 z-value of -1.25

* Lets change the average cost to cent

∵ $1 = 100 cents

∴ The average cost of a glass of iced tea = 1.25 × 100 = 125 cents

∵ z = (x - μ)/σ

∵ z = -1.25

∵ μ = 125

∵ σ = 7

∴ -1.25 = (x - 125)/7 ⇒ multiply both sides by 7

∴ -8.75 = x - 125 ⇒ add 125 to both sides

∴ 116.25 = x

* The tea's actual cost is $116.25

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The original dimensions of the piece of metal are

Length: 36 inches

Width: 21 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the original length pf the piece of metal

y ----> the original width pf the piece of metal

we know that

x=y+15 ----> equation A

The volume of the box is equal to

V=LWH

we have

V=1,350\ in^3

L=(x-3-3)=(x-6)\ in\\W=(y-3-3)=(y-6)\ in

H=3\ in

substitute in the formula of volume

1,350=(x-6)(y-6)(3) ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

1,350=(y+15-6)(y-6)(3)

solve for y

450=(y+9)(y-6)

y^2-6y+9y-54=450\\y^2+3y-504=0

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solution is y=21

Find the value of x

x=21+15=36

therefore

The original dimensions of the piece of metal are

Length: 36 inches

Width: 21 inches

Which of the tables represents a function?
Damm [24]
Input is domain and output is co-domain.
An expression is said to be a function if for every input, there is only one output. In table B, for every input, you get different outputs. Therefore, table B is a function.
