Answer:

29 pounds of type A coffee was used

Step-by-step explanation:

David's shop makes a blend that is a mixture of 2 coffee

Type A costs $4.10

Type B costs $5.25

Let a represent the number of pounds of type A coffee used

Since this month's blend used twice as many pound of type B coffee as type A

a + 2a

The total cost is $423.40

Therefore the amount of pounds of type A coffee used can be calculated as follows

4.10a + 5.25(2a)= 423.40

4.10a + 10.5a= 423.40

14.6a= 423.40

a= 423.40/14.6

a= 29

Hence 29 pounds of type A coffee was used

<IMK=<GMH because they are vertical angles.  Therefore:

84=4x

<em>*Divide both sides by 4*</em>

21=x


<IMK+<KMH=180 because they are supplementary angles.  Therefore:

84+<KMH=180

<em>*Subtract 84 from both sides*</em>

<KMH=96


Hope this helps!!

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

a

   P(X <  24 )=  21.186\%  

b

    x =  19.78 \  months

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The mean is   \mu  =  26 \  months

 The standard deviation is  \sigma  =  4 \  months

 Generally 2 year is  equal to  24 months

Generally the percentage of total production will the company expect to replace is mathematically represented as

      P(X <  24 )=  P(\frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma} <  \frac{24 - 26}{4}  )

Generally  \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } =Z (The  \ standardized \  value  \  of  \  X )

     P(X <  24 )=  P(Z <  -0.8  )

Generally from the z-table  

       P(Z <  -0.8) =  0.21186

So

       P(X <  24 )=  0.21186

Converting to percentage

      P(X <  24 )=  0.21186  * 100

=>    P(X <  24 )=  21.186\%  

Generally the duration that should be the guarantee period if  Accrotime does not want to make refunds on more than 6% is mathematically evaluated as

    P(X <  x) =  P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma}  < \frac{x - 26}{4} )= 0.06

=> P(X <  x) =  P(Z < \frac{x - 26}{4} )= 0.06

From the normal distribution table the z-score for  0.06 at the lower tail  is

       z = -1.555

So

    \frac{x - 26}{4} = -1.555

=> x =  19.78 \  months

Use set builder notation to represent the following set. {... -3, -2, -1, 0} {x | x Z, x ≤ 0} {x | x N, x ≤ 0} {x | x R, x ≤ 0}
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

\boxed{\boxed{\left\{x\ |\ x\ \epsilon\ Z,\ x \le 0}\right\}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Set builder notation-

It is a notation for representing a set by enumerating its elements and stating the properties that its members must satisfy.

The given set is,

\left \{.... -3, -2, -1, 0 \right \}

This set is comprised of all negative integers. So symbol Z should be used in this case.

The set builder notation for this set is,

\left\{x\ |\ x\ \epsilon\ Z,\ x \le 0}\right\}
