Answer: a. 0.14085
b. 3.826 x 
c. 0.5437
d. 0.0811
Step-by-step explanation:
Given average amount parents and children spent per child on back-to-school clothes in Autumn 2010 , 
= $527
Given standard deviation , 
= $160
Let X = amount spent on a randomly selected child
Also Z = 
a. Probability(X>$700) = P( > 
) = P(Z>1.08125) = 0.14085 {Using Z % table}
b. P(X<100) = P( Z < 
) = P(Z< -2.66875) = P(Z > 2.66875) = 3.826 x
c. P(450<X<700) = P(X<700) - P(X<=450)
P(X<700) = 1 - P(X>=700) = 1 - 0.14085 = 0.8592
P(X<=450) = P(Z<= 
) = P(Z<= -0.48125) = P(Z<=0.48125) = 0.3155
So final P(450<X<700) = 0.8592 - 0.3155 = 0.5437
d. P(X<=300) = P(Z<= 
) = P(Z<= -1.4188) = P(Z>=1.4188) = 0.0811
All the above probabilities are calculated using Z % table along with interpolation between two values.
Part 1) Finding x
Note the double tickmarks for segments XY and YZ. This indicates the segments are the same length, which leads to point Y being the midpoint of segment XZ.
Therefore, XZ is twice as long as XY
XZ = 2*( XY )
XZ = 2*( 2x-1 )
XZ = 4x - 2
We also know that XZ = 2(3x-4) = 6x-8. Let's equate 4x-2 and 6x-8 and solve for x
6x-8 = 4x-2
6x-4x = -2+8
2x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 3
<h3>Answer is 3</h3>
=====================================
Part 2) Finding the length of YZ
The resut of part 1 (x = 3) is plugged into the equation for XY to get
XY = 2*x-1
XY = 2*3-1
XY = 6-1
XY = 5
Segment XY is 5 units long. So is segment YZ as these two segments are the same length (aka congruent).
<h3>Answer: 5</h3>
=====================================
Part 3) Finding the length of segment XZ
The answer from the previous part was 5. This doules to 5*2 = 10
-----
A longer way to get the same answer is to plug x = 3 into the XZ equation and we get...
XZ = 2*(3x-4)
XZ = 2*(3*3-4)
XZ = 2*(9-4)
XZ = 2*5
XZ = 10
and we get the same answer
<h3>Answer: 10</h3>
Answer:
2/0.74
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the polynomial, factorize it.
2x³-11x²+18x-8=0
After factorizing:
(x-2)(2x^2 - 7x +4) = 0
now, solve each bracket one by one:
x-2 = 0
x = 2
Then
2x^2 - 7x + 4 = 0
use quadratic formula t get 0.74
Let give Poppy = P, Felix = F, Alexi = A
so P+ F + A = 700 ----(1)
P = 2F ----(2)
A = 25 + P ---(3)
we will think in term of P
from (2) F = P/2
from (1) P + F + A = 700
P + P/2 + 25 + P = 700 ---(4)
(4) multiplied by 2
2P + P + 50 + 2P = 1400
5P + 50 = 1400
5P = 1350
so P = 270
so Poppy sold 270 tickets
Felix sold 135 tickets
and Alexi sold 295 tickets //
