How do I simplify this problem

nikklg [1K]

There is a few ways to get the result.
Lets try this.
First calculate how many minutes are in the 5 hours.
60min*5=300min - in 5 hours
Now, knowing that quarter is 15min we can divide 300 by 15 to get the result, so
300:15=20 - its the result.

Y varies directly as x. Y=42 when x=6. Find the value of y when x =15.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

y=120

Step-by-step explanation:

Y varies directly as x is written as

$y \alpha x$

introducing a constant

y=kx

from the question, when y=48, x=6

substitute it in the formula

48=6k

making k the subject by dividing through by 6

$\frac{48}{6} = \frac{6k}{6}$

k=48/6

k=8

put the value of k in the expression y=kx

y=8x

from the question,the value of y when x=15 is given by

y=8×15

y=120.

I need help with this one pls!

Hi there!

$\large\boxed{b = \frac{a}{ac - 1}}$

We can begin by making each fraction have a common denominator:

If we make each have a common denominator of ab, we get:

$\frac{b}{ab} + \frac{a}{ab} = c$

Simplify:

$\frac{a + b}{ab} = c$

Multiply both sides by ab:

$a + b = cab$

Move b to the opposite side:

$a = cab - b$

Factor out b:

$a = b(ac - 1)$

Divide by (ac - 1):

$\frac{a}{ac - 1} = b$

Your company is considering submitting a bid on a major project. You determine that the expected completion time is 130 weeks an

Olenka [21]

Answer:

Option C) 146.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 130 weeks

Standard Deviation, σ = 10 weeks

We are given that the distribution of completion time is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

P(X<x) = 0.95

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.95

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 130}{10})=0.95$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 130}{10} = 1.645\\x = 146.45 \approx 146.5$

The project should be completed in 146.5 weeks or less.

Hence, 146.5 weeks should be set the due date such that there is a 95 percent chance that the project will be finished by this time.
