Answer:

5/8 > 5/12


The least common denominator is 24

Comparing 15/24 and 10/24:


15/24 > 10/24

therefore

5/8 > 5/12

A discount bookstore sells hardcover books for $12 and paperback books for $6. The number of hardcover books, x, sold one day wa
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer: the system of equations that represents this situation are

12x + 6y = 180

x = 2y

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hardcover books that were sold in a day.

Let y represent the number of paperback books that were sold in a day.

The discount bookstore sells hardcover books for $12 and paperback books for $6. The total sales that day were $180. It means that

12x + 6y = 180

The number of hardcover books sold that day was twice the number of paperback books. It means that

x = 2y

Before every​ flight, the pilot must verify that the total weight of the load is less than the maximum allowable load for the ai
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The probability that the aircraft  is  overload = 0.9999

Yes , The pilot has to be take strict action .

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S - The exact question is -

Given - Before every​ flight, the pilot must verify that the total weight of the load is less than the maximum allowable load for the aircraft. The aircraft can carry 37 ​passengers, and a flight has fuel and baggage that allows for a total passenger load of 6,216 lb. The pilot sees that the plane is full and all passengers are men. The aircraft will be overloaded if the mean weight of the passengers is greater than 6216/37 = 168 lb. Assume that weight of men are normally distributed with a mean of 182.7 lb and a standard deviation of 39.6.

To find - What is the probability that the aircraft is​ overloaded ?

         Should the pilot take any action to correct for an overloaded aircraft ?

Proof -

Given that,

Mean, μ = 182.7

Standard Deviation, σ = 39.6

Now,

Let X be the Weight of the men

Now,

Probability that the aircraft is loaded be

P(X > 168 ) = P(\frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} > \frac{168 - \mu}{\sigma} )

                 = P( z > \frac{168 - 182.7}{39.6} )

                 = P( z > -0.371)

                 = 1 - P ( z ≤ -0.371 )

                 = 1 - P( z > 0.371)

                 = 1 - 0.00010363

                 = 0.9999

⇒P(X > 168) = 0.9999

As the probability of weight overload = 0.9999

So, The pilot has to be take strict action .

The third term in an arithmetic sequence is 9 and the fifth term is 21 . If the first term if a1, which is an equation for the n
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

A: an = 6n - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

third term in an arithmetic sequence is 9

a3 = a + 2d

a + 2d = 9

the fifth term is 21

a5 = a + 4d

a + 4d = 21

a + 2d = 9 (1)

a + 4d = 21 (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate a

4d - 2d = 21 - 9

2d = 12

d = 12/2

d = 6

Substitute d = 6 into (1)

a + 2d = 9 (1)

a + 2(6) = 9

a + 12 = 9

a = 9 - 12

a = -3

nth term of this sequence = a + (n - 1)d

= -3 + (n - 1)6

= -3 + 6n - 6

= 6n - 9

an = 6n - 9
