Answer:

Therefore the age of Susan is 19.4 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, the age of Bob is 4 times greater than the age of Susan.

It means Bob's age = 4×Susan's age........(1)

Again, the age of Dakota is 4 less than Susan.

It means Susan's age - 4=Dakota's age.......(2)

In (1) and (2)only Susan's age  is common.

So, Let the age of Susan be x.

From (1) we get

Bob's age = 4×x = 4x    [ Since Susan's age= x]

From (2) we get

Dakota's age= x-4

Again given that the sum of all three age is 93.

It means

Bob's age+Susan's age+Dakota's age= 93

Putting the age of the three

⇒4x+x+(x-4)=93

⇒4x+x+x-4=93

⇒5x=93+4

⇒5x=97

\Rightarrow x=\frac{97}{5}

⇒x = 19.4

Therefore the age of Susan is 19.4 years.

A fair coin is flipped 120 times. Estimate the expected number of ‘heads’.
Bumek [7]

when coin is flipped 5 times probability is 1/2

so coin heads comes out to be 2.5

This is a binomial distribution with a probability of success = 0.5 (fair coin).

n=10

so

mean = E[x] = np =10*0.5 =5

PLEASE HELP!!!!!<br> x^2 + 12xy + 35y^2
SVEN [57.7K]
The answer is = (x + 5y) (x + 7y)

Break the expression into two groups.
 
x^2 + 12xy + 35y^2
(x^2 + 5xy) (7xy + 35^2)

Factor out x from x^2 + 5xy: x(x + 5y)
Factor out 7y from 7xy + 35y^2: 7y(x + 5y)
=x(x + 5y) + 7y(x + 5y)

Next, factor out the common term (x+ 5y).

Answer = (x + 5y) (x + 7y)

it costs $15 per month for membership at a baseball club. Members pay $5 for game tickets. Write an expression for the cost of 1
julia-pushkina [17]
Y=15+5g Y is the total cost in one month. 15 is the cost of the membership and 5 is the amount you paid to see the game. G is the variable for the amount of games. You multiple the g by 5 to get the total cost of games per a month that you went and saw. Than you add the base cost of 15 or your starting point. And you get your total cost.
