At\ the\ beginning\ :\\3x-\ number\ of\ bottles\ of\ apple\ juice\\\\
2x-\ number\ of\ bottles\ of\ orange juice\\\\
After\ sale:\\
1x-number\ of\ bottles\ of\ apple\ juice\\\\
6x- number\ of\ bottles\ of\ orange juice\\\\
\frac{3x-64}{2x}=\frac{1x}{6x}\\\\
\frac{3x-64}{2x}=\frac{1}{6}\\\\Cross\ multiplication:\\\\
6(3x-64)=2x\\
18x-384=2x\ \ \ |subtract\ 2x\\
16x-384=0\ \ \ |add\ 384\\
16x=384\ \ | divide\ by\ 16\\\\x=24
He\ had\ 24\ bottles\ of\ apple\ juice\ and\ 144 \ of\ orange\ juice.

If the ratio of the number of bottles of apple juice to the number of bottles of orange juice was 3:2, then you can denote 3x - the number of bottles of apple juice and 2x - the number of bottles of orange juice.

After he sold 64 bottles of apple juice, the number of bottles of apple juice became 3x-64 and the number of bottles of orange juice remained 2x.

The new ratio is 1:6, this means that

\dfrac{3x-64}{2x}=\dfrac{1}{6}.

Solve this equation:

(3x-64)\cdot 6=2x\cdot 1,\\18x-384=2x,\\18x-2x=384,\\16x=384,\\ \\x=\dfrac{384}{16}=24.

In the end Mr. Young had:

  • 3x-64=3\cdot 24-64=8 bottles of apple juce;
  • 2x=2\cdot 24=48 bottles of orange juice.

"if the standard deviation of a group of 20 scores is 15, what is the variance?"
DerKrebs [107]

We have been given that the standard deviation of a group of 20 scores is 15 and we are asked to find variance.

Since we know variance is square of standard deviation. In order to find out the variance of the given data we have to take the square of 15.

\text{ Variance}=\sigma^{2}\\
=15^{2}=225

Therefore, our variance is 225.
