12 grapes cost 90 $how many can bought in 40$

Mathematics

Nastasia [14]2 years ago

Answer:

5 grapes

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use a proportion.

12 grapes is to 90$ as x grapes is to 40$

12/90 = x/40

90x = 12 * 40

9x = 12 * 4

9x = 48

x = 5.33

Since you cannot buy 1/3 of a grape, you need to round down to the nearest whole number.

Answer: 5 grapes

Let x = the amount of grapes that can be bought for 0.40.


Note: By 90 I assume you mean 90 cents. The same for 40.


12/x = 0.90/0.40


0.90x = 12(0.40)


0.90x = 4.80


x = 4.80 ÷ 0.90


x = 5.33333


We can round the decimal to the ones place to get 5 grapes.

The distribution of the scores on a certain exam is ​N(40​,5​), which means that the exam scores are Normally distributed with a
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the random variable representing the scores in the exam. Given that the scores are normally distributed with a mean of 40 and a standard deviation of 5, the diagram representing the curve and​ the position of the​ mean, the mean plus or minus one standard​ deviation, the mean plus or minus two standard​ deviations, and the mean plus or minus three standard deviations is shown in the attached photo

1 standard deviation = 5

2 standard deviations = 2 × 5 = 10

3 standard deviations = 3 × 5 = 15

1 standard deviation from the mean lies between (40 - 5) and (40 + 5)

2 standard deviations from the mean lies between (40 - 10) and (40 + 10)

3 standard deviations from the mean lies between (40 - 15) and (40 + 15)

b) We would apply the probability for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 40

σ = 5

the probability that a randomly selected score will be greater than 50 is expressed as

P(x > 50) = 1 - P( ≤ x 50)

For x = 50,

z = (50 - 40)/5 = 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.98

P(x > 50) = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02

Consider the differential equation 4y'' â 4y' + y = 0; ex/2, xex/2. Verify that the functions ex/2 and xex/2 form a fundamental
Kazeer [188]

Check the Wronskian determinant:

W(e^{x/2},xe^{x/2})=\begin{vmatrix}e^{x/2}&xe^{x/2}\\\frac12e^{x/2}&\left(1+\frac x2\right)e^{x/2}\end{vmatrix}=\left(1+\frac x2\right)e^x-\frac x2e^x=e^x\neq0

The determinant is not zero, so the solutions are indeed linearly independent.

Suppose the half-life of a material is 10 days. You have one 1 kg of the material today. How much of the material would you have
boyakko [2]

Answer:

0.50 kg of the material would be left after 10 days.

0.25 kg of the material would be left after 20 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the half-life of a material is 10 days. You have one 1 kg of the material today. We are asked to find the amount of material left after  10 days and 20 days, respectively.

We will use half life formula.

A=a\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{h}}, where,

A = Amount left after t units of time,

a = Initial amount,

t = Time,

h = Half-life.

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{10}{10}}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{1}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot\frac{1}{2}

A=0.5\text{ kg}

Therefore, amount of the material left after 10 days would be 0.5 kg.

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{20}{10}}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{2}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot\frac{1^2}{2^2}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot\frac{1}{4}

A=0.25\text{ kg}

Therefore, amount of the material left after 20 days would be 0.25 kg.
