Answer:
91.63 cm is the interior length of the bassinet to ensure that 99 percent of newborn babies will fit, with a safety margin of 15 cm on each end of the bassinet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
Mean, μ = 50 cm
Standard Deviation, σ = 5 cm
We are given that the distribution of length of a newborn baby is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.
Formula:

P(X<x) = 0.99
We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.99
P(X < x)
Calculation the value from standard normal table, we have,

Thus, 99% of newborn babies will have a length of 61.63 cm or less.
There is a safety margin of 15 cm on each end of the bassinet
Length of bassinet =

Answer:
(a) 150
(b) 384
(c) 84
(d) 261
(e ) 480
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Let 'a' be a number such that the half of his third is 25; i.e.
Hence, the number is 150.
(b)
Let 'b' be the number such that the quarter of his half is 48 i.e.

Hence the number is 384.
(c)
Let 'c' be the number such that the third quarter or, increased by 17 is 80.

Hence, the number is 84.
(d)
Let 'd' be the number such that its triplet, reduced by 28 is 755

Hence the number is 261.
(e
Let 'e' be the number such that double his third, increased by 80 is 400.

Hence, the value of the number is 480.
Answer: There are 5 grasshoppers, 15 crickets and 20 ladybugs
Step-by-step explanation:
The question in english is:
Jose has found several insects. There are 10 less grasshoppers than crickets. There are 5 less crickets than ladybugs. If Jose has found 5 grasshoppers, how many ladybugs did he find and how many crickets? Write two equations to solve the problem.
Let's tag grasshoppers with
, crickets with
and ladybugs with
.
So, we are tolde there are 10 less grasshoppers than crickets:
(1) We have the first equation
Then, we are told there are 5 less crickets than ladybugs:
(2) This is the second equation
If
and we substitute this in both equations we will have:
(3)
Isolating
:
(4) There are 15 crickets
Substituting (4) in (2):
(5)
Isolating
:
There are 20 ladybugs
Therefore:
There are 15 crickets and 20 ladybugs
