52=total
16= total price of layer cake

Another way to think about this is... The total cost was $52. Subtracting out the cost of the layer cake ($16) leaves us with $36 to pay for the 24 cupcakes. <span>This means that each cupcake must have cost $1.50 ( = $36 / 24 cupcakes ).</span>

Solve for x using the<br> distributive property.<br> 9(5 - x) = 81<br> x = [?]
Ilya [14]

Answer:

\boxed {x = -4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of x:

9(5 - x) = 81

-Use <u>Distributive Property</u>:

9(5 - x) = 81

45 - 9x = 81

-Subtract 45 to both sides:

45 - 45 - 9x = 81 - 45

-9x = 36

-Divide both sides by:

\frac{-9x}{-9} = \frac{36}{-9}

\boxed {x = -4}

So, the value of x is -4.

A researcher was testing the number of popcorn kernels that popped out of a mini bag of 100 kernels after being cooked for the s
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The percentage of the bag that should have popped 96 kernels or more is 2.1%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of popcorn kernels that popped out of a mini bag.

The mean is, <em>μ</em> = 72 and the standard deviation is, <em>σ</em> = 12.

Assume that the population of the number of popcorn kernels that popped out of a mini bag follows a Normal distribution.

Compute the probability that a bag popped 96 kernels or more as follows:

Apply continuity correction:

P( X\geq 96)=P( X>96+0.50)

                 =P( X>96.50)\\=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{96.50-72}{12})\\=P(Z>2.04)\\=1-P(Z

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

The probability that a bag popped 96 kernels or more is 0.021.

The percentage is, 0.021 × 100 = 2.1%.

Thus, the percentage of the bag that should have popped 96 kernels or more is 2.1%.

Consider the following equation. f(x, y) = y3/x, P(1, 2), u = 1 3 2i + 5 j (a) Find the gradient of f. ∇f(x, y) = Correct: Your
BaLLatris [955]

f(x,y)=\dfrac{y^3}x

a. The gradient is

\nabla f(x,y)=\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\vec\imath+\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}\,\vec\jmath

\boxed{\nabla f(x,y)=-\dfrac{y^3}{x^2}\,\vec\imath+\dfrac{3y^2}x\,\vec\jmath}

b. The gradient at point P(1, 2) is

\boxed{\nabla f(1,2)=-8\,\vec\imath+12\,\vec\jmath}

c. The derivative of f at P in the direction of \vec u is

D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\nabla f(1,2)\cdot\dfrac{\vec u}{\|\vec u\|}

It looks like

\vec u=\dfrac{13}2\,\vec\imath+5\,\vec\jmath

so that

\|\vec u\|=\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{13}2\right)^2+5^2}=\dfrac{\sqrt{269}}2

Then

D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\dfrac{\left(-8\,\vec\imath+12\,\vec\jmath\right)\cdot\left(\frac{13}2\,\vec\imath+5\,\vec\jmath\right)}{\frac{\sqrt{269}}2}

\boxed{D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{269}}}
