Answer:

3.75 I might be wrong but i did the math and this is what I got

Step-by-step explanation:

You are trying to find y in this equation

Don't let -7/4 bother you that should be the slope.

THE HARD PART IS ISOLATING Y to get your answer

Jeremy has $1200 in spending money for the fall semester of college. He needs to purchase car insurance at $120 for 4 months, $2

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Jeremy Will have more than just $200 to spend on Christmas presents.

Explanation :

He has a total of $1200.

He spends a $120 for car insurance. (1)

He needs to spend $25 a week for lunch. He has to do this for 16 weeks so 25*16 = $400. (2)

He needs to spend $20 a week for entertainment. For 16 weeks that'll be 20*16 = $320 (3)

adding (1) (2) and (3)

We get Jeremy's total spending will be $840. Jeremy has $1200.

1200-840 = $360

So Jeremy will have $360 to spend on Christmas present.

Anettt [7]

3x-5=2x-6
Move 2x to the same side as 3x.
3x-2x = x
X-5=-6
add 5 to the -6.
X = 5-6
X=-1

The port of South Louisiana, located along 54 miles of the Mississippi River between New Orleans and Baton Rouge, is the largest

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

a) 0.7287

b) 0.9663

c) 0.237

d) 3.65 tons of cargo per week or more that will require the port to extend its operating hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 4.5 million tons of cargo per week

Standard Deviation, σ = 0 .82 million tons

We are given that the distribution of number of tons of cargo handled per week is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

a) P( port handles less than 5 million tons of cargo per week)

P(x < 5)

$P( x < 5) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{5 - 4.5}{0.82}) = P(z < 0.609)$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(x < 5) =0.7287= 72.87\%$

b) P( port handles 3 or more million tons of cargo per week)

$P(x \geq 3) = P(z \geq \displaystyle\frac{3-4.5}{0.82}) = P(z \geq −1.82926)\\\\P( z \geq −1.82926) = 1 - P(z < -1.829)$

Calculating the value from the standard normal table we have,

$1 - 0.0337 = 0.9663 = 96.63\%\\P( x \geq 3) = 96.63\%$

c)P( port handles between 3 million and 4 million tons of cargo per week)

$P(3 \leq x \leq 4) = P(\displaystyle\frac{3 - 4.5}{0.82} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{4-4.5}{0.82}) = P(-1.829 \leq z \leq -0.609)\\\\= P(z \leq -0.609) - P(z < -1.829)\\= 0.271-0.034 = 0.237= 23.7\%$

$P(3 \leq x \leq 4) = 23.7\%$

d) P(X=x) = 0.85

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.85.

P(X > x)

$P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 4.5}{0.82})=0.85$

$= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 4.5}{0.82})=0.85$

$=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 4.5}{0.82})=0.15$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P( z \leq -1.036) = 0.15$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 4.5}{0.82} = -1.036\\x = 3.65$

Thus, 3.65 tons of cargo per week or more that will require the port to extend its operating hours.
