Answer:

(a) 68%

(b) 0.3%

(c) 2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Data</u>

  • mean = 100
  • standard deviation (sd) = 17

(a) mean - sd = 100 - 17 = 83

mean + sd = 100 + 17 = 117

The 68–95–99.7 rule states that 68% of the values are within mean ± 1 sd

(b) mean - 3*sd = 100 - 3*17 = 49

mean + 3*sd = 100 + 3*17 = 151

The 68–95–99.7 rule states that 100% - 99.7% = 0.3% of the values are beyond mean ± 3 sd

(c) mean + 2*sd = 100 + 2*17 = 134

The 68–95–99.7 rule states that 95% of the values are within mean ± 2 sd , this means that 5/2 = 2.5% of the values are below mean - 2 sd, and 2.5% are above mean + 2 sd

David and Amrita had an equal number of marbles. After Amrita gave 50 marbles to David, he had 5 times as many marbles as her. F
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a = d before Anna gives away 50 marbles.

 

5 (a-50) = a +50 after Anna gives away 50 marbles.

 

5a - 250 = a + 50

 

4a = 300

 

a = 75

 

Anna has 75 marbles at the beginning and so did David.

 

Together they have 150 marbles.

:)

Jean and Sarah are buying tubs of ice cream. 2 scoops of ice cream are twice the price of 1 scoop of ice cream. Jean buys 4 tubs
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of 1 scoop of ice cream. Since the cost of 2 scoops of ice cream are twice the price of 1 scoop of ice cream, therefore the cost of 2 scoops of ice cream = 2x

Jean buys 4 tubs with 2 scoops in them and 2 tubs with 1 scoop each. Therefore the money spent by Jean is:

Money spent by Jean = 4(2x) + 2(x) = 8x + 2x = 10x

Sarah buys 2 tubs of 2 scoops and 4 tubs of 1 scoop. The money spent by Sarah is:

Money spent by Sarah = 2(2x) + 4(x) = 4x + 4x = 8x

Sarah spends 2.50 € less than Jean. Therefore:

Money spent by Sarah = Money spent by Jean - 2.5

8x = 10x - 2.5

2x = 2.5

x = €1.25

Therefore the cost of 1 scoop of ice cream is €1.25, the cost of 2 scoops of ice cream is €2.50.

Money spent by Jean = 10x = 10(1.25) = €12.5

Money spent by Sarah = 8x = 8(1.25) = €10

Who’s graph show a proportional relationship in which the value of y is one-half of the value of x
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

so

That means it's the equation of a line passing through the origin.

case a) and case d) are discarded because the line does not pass through the origin

<u>case b) we have</u>

for x=2 y=4

y/x=k-------> 4/2=2------> k=2

y=2x-------> in this case the value of y is two times the value of x

<u>case c) we have</u>

for x=4 y=2

y/x=k-------> 2/4=1/2------> k=(1/2)

y=(1/2)x-------> in this case the value of y is one-half of the value of x

therefore

the solution is the case c) see the attached figure
