Sasha buys two ribbons of equal length. She cuts 9 pieces of the same length, L, from the first ribbon and finds that 5 inches a
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

50 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the each ribbon was x.

Now, she cuts 9 pieces of same length L which means total length is 9L.

Now, doing the same she was left with 5 inches of ribbon. Hence, we have

[tex[9L+5=x.....(1)[/tex]

Similarly, we can write a equation for the second situation.

2L+40=x......(2)

From equation 1 and 2,

9L+5=2L+40\\\\7L=35\\\\L=5

Plugging this value in equation 1,

9(5)+5=x\\\\x=45+5\\x=50

Therefore, the length of each ribbon when she bought them was 50 inches.

Assume that the weight loss for the first month of a diet program varies between 6 pounds and 14 pounds, and is spread evenly ov
Llana [10]

Hello!

For this uniform distribution, the shape of the density function is a line. We can begin by identifying key elements of the distribution:

Range: 6 to 14 pounds

Formula of density function:

y = 1/Range

1 - (14 - 6) = 1/8 = 0.125

f(x) = 0.125

1)

P(x = 7)

A uniform distribution is a continuous distribution, so the probability of x being an EXACT value is approximately 0.

<u>This is the same as if we took the following integral. (Finding the area under a curve with the same start and end point)</u>
\int\limits^a_a {f(x)} \, dx  = 0

Therefore, P(x = 7) = 0.

2)
We can think of this as finding the area of a rectangle.

The width would be the difference between 8.25 pounds and 12 pounds:
W = 12 - 8.25 = 3.75

The height would be the function (y = .125), or:
h = .125

Using the equation for the area of a rectangle: (A = h * w)

A = 3.75 * .125 = 0.469

Thus, P(8.25 < x < 12) = 0.469

3)
To find the probability GREATER than 10.50 pounds, we can subtract this value from the max value for the width:
W = 14 - 10.50 = 3.50

The height is the same as above:
h = .125

Solve for the area:
A = 3.50 * .125 = 0.4375

P(x > 10.5) = 0.4375

The Basketball Boosters Club plans a pancake supper to raise $1,200. They can serve 240 people. They
wolverine [178]

\huge{ \mathfrak{  \underline{ Answer} \:  \:  ✓ }}

let the number of

  • adults be x

  • children be y

Total number of people : adults + children

  • x + y = 240

  • x = 240 - y - [1]

Total money earned from adults :

  • 6 × x = 6x

Total money earned from children :

  • 2 × y = 2y

Therefore, total money = money earned from each Adult and children.

  • 6x + 2y = 1200 -[2]

Now, let's plug the value of x from equation [1] into equation [2]

  • 6 (240 - y) + 2y = 1200

  • 1440 - 6y + 2y = 1200

  • -4y = 1200 - 1440

  • -4y = - 240

  • y = 60

let's plug the value of y in equation [1]

  • x = 240 - y

  • x = 240 - 60

  • x = 180

Hence, we get :

  • total adults = x = 180

  • total children = y = 60

Correct option is C
