T = 4 + 2A
S = 5A - 8
T = S
Since T and S are equal, set them against each other
2A + 4 = 5A - 8
Subtract 2A from each side, and add 8 to each side
12 = 3A
Divide each side by 3
A = 4
So Andrew is 4 years old
If Andrew is 4, then Tom is twice that plus 4, or 12. Sarah is 5 times 4 less 8, or 12.

A repair bill for a car is $648.45. The parts cost $265.95. The labor cost is $85 per hour. Write and solve an equation to find
zysi [14]

Answer:

( t - p ) /  85x =  h

( t - 265.95 ) /  85x  = h

648.45 - 265.95 / 85x = 3.32h

h = 3.32

Therefore ( t - p ) /  85x =  3.32

Step-by-step explanation:

648.45 - 265.95

282.50 /85

= 3.32 hrs

Finding equation to find hours can be shown as

( t - p ) /  85x =  3.32

How we found equation to find total

Parts = 19 x 14 - 5/100 = 266- 0.05

648.45 - 265.95 = 282.5

282.5/85 = 3.323  near to 3,233529

Labour = 85x  = 17 (5 + x)

Equation = 17(5+ x) + 14(19) - 5/100 = 648.45 where x = 85

Equation = ( 85x x 3  1/3) + 265 - 19/20 = t

A neuroscientist measures the reaction times (in seconds) during an experimental session in a sample of cocaine-addicted (n = 8)
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

14.69 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The weighted mean is used to calculate the mean of numbers which don't have the same "weight" or statistical relevance. In this case, that relevance is based on the sample size of each group from which the mean reaction times were obtained.

For all three samples, the weighted mean is obtaining by multiplying each one of the mean reaction times by its <em>n value, </em>adding them, and dividing that result by the sum of all n values.

WM=\frac{11*8+18*12+13*6}{8+12+6} =14.69\\
