It sells twice as many kitten as lizards:

Kittens sold = 15 x 2 = 30 total kittens.

It sells 6 times the amount of fish:

Fish sold = 6 x 30 = 180 total fish.

Lizards = 15

Kittens = 30

Fish = 180

Answer:

They sell 225 pets each week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f be fish, k be kittens, and l be lizards.

$f$ ÷6= $k$

$k$ ÷2= $l$

If $l=15$ , then:

$k=30\\f=180$

180+30+15=225 pets

They sell 225 pets each week.

(I hope this isn't wrong but that answer seems wrong)

Answer:

About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Quality control studies for Speedy Jet Computer Printers show the lifetime of the printer follows a normal distribution with

mean $\mu = 4$ and standard deviation $\sigma = 0.78$

If the company wishes to replace no more than 10% of the printers.

To find : How long should Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed ?

Solution :

Using Z- table,

Z value corresponding to 10% or 0.10 = -1.28.

Applying z-score formula,

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

The value of x is given by,

$x=(z\times \sigma)+\mu$

Substitute the values,

$x=(-1.28\times 0.78)+4$

$x=-0.9984+4$

$x=3.0016$

So, approx 3 years.

Therefore, About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

What are the solutions of the equation x^4-9x^2+8=0? Use u substitution to solve.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The answer is the second option

Step-by-step explanation:

Let u=x^2.

$( {x}^{2} ) {}^{2} - 9( {x}^{2} ) + 8( {x}^{2} ) {}^{0}$

${u}^{2} - 9u + 8$

$(u - 1)(u - 8)$

$u = 1$

$u = 8$

Set this equal to x^2

${x}^{2} = 1$

$x = 1$

or

$x = - 1$

${x}^{2} = 8$

$x = 2 \sqrt{2}$

or

$x = - 2 \sqrt{2}$
