Answer:

-3 over 4=x

Step-by-step explanation:

x:1÷4(2x+4)=4

x over 1÷4(2x+4)=4

x over 1×1 over 4(2x+4)=4

x over 4(2x+4)=4

x=4×4(2x+4)

x=32x+64

x-64=32x

-64 over 32= 2x

-3 over 2=2x

-3 over 2÷2=x

-3 over 2 × 1 over 2=x

-3 over 4 =x

i am not sure about my answer tho

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The possible values of the number of hours clearing tables are 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Lets explain how to solve the problem</em>

- Madelyn is making $20 per hour life guarding

- She is making $12 per hour clearing tables

- She can work no more than 13 total hours

∴ The greatest time she can work is 13 hours (≤)

- She must earn no less than $180

∴ The least money she wants to earn is $180 (≥)

- If Madelyn worked 8 hours life guarding and assume that she

worked x hours clearing tables

∵ She can work no more than 13 hours

∴ 8 + x ≤ 13

- Subtract 8 from both sides

∴ x ≤ 5 ⇒ (1)

∵ She must earn no less than $180

∴ 8 × 20 + x × 12 ≥ 180

∴ 160 + 12x ≥ 180

- Subtract 60 from both sides

∴ 12x ≥ 20 ⇒ (2)

- From equation (1) ⇒ x = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5

- Substitute x in equation (2) by these values to find the right values

of x

# If x = 1

∴ 12(1) ≥ 20

- But 12 is less than 20

∴ x can not be 1

# x = 2

∴ 12(2) ≥ 20

∴ 24 ≥ 20

- 24 is greater than 20 then x can be 2

∵ 3 , 4 , 5 greater than 2

∴ All of them give answers greater than 20

∴ x can be 3 , 4, 5

∵ x represents the number of hours for clearing tables

∴ The possible values of the number of hours clearing tables are

2 , 3 , 4 , 5 hours

Reserve Problems Chapter 4 Section 5 Problem 2 A laptop company claims up to 10.1 hours of wireless web usage for its newest lap

Viktor [21]

Answer:

0.1151

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a laptop company claims up to 10.1 hours of wireless web usage for its newest laptop battery life. However, reviews on this laptop shows many complaints about low battery life. A survey on battery life reported by customers shows that it follows a normal distribution with mean 9.5 hours and standard deviation 30 minutes.

If X is the battery life then X is N(9.5, 0.5)

(we convert into one unit for calculations purpose here hours)

a) the probability that the battery life is at least 10.1 hours

= $P(X\geq 10.1)\\=P(Z\geq \frac{10.1-9.5}{0.5} )\\= P(Z\geq 1.2)\\=0.1151$

we get the probability that the battery life is at least 10.1 hours is 0.1151
