Answer:
19.92
Step-by-step explanation:
To overfill 5% of the time ;
The Zscore (value) to the left of (1 - 0.05) = 0.95 is 1.645
Using this Zscore value with the Zscore formula :
Zscore = (x - μ) / σ
σ = 0.05 ; x = 20 ounce
Substituting into the Zscore formula :
1.645 = (20 - μ) / 0.05
1.645*0.05 = 20 - μ
0.08225 = 20 - μ
μ = 20 - 0.08225
μ = 19.91775
μ = 19.92
16x + 9 = 9y-2x Add 2x to both sides
18x + 9 = 9y Divide both sides by 9
2x + 1 = y Switch the sides to make it easier to read
y = 2x + 1
Answer:
1200 students at the school
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the total number of students at the school
50% ride the bus
600 students ride the bus
x*50% = 600
Changing to decimal form
.50x = 600
Divide each side by .5
.50x/.5 = 600/.5
x =1200
1200 students at the school
There's more than one way to do this problem.
Try this: Mult. both 109 and 5 by 2, obtaining 218 and 10.
What is 218 div. by 10? Do this in your head.
