Answer:

$5

Step-by-step explanation:

Magazine cost: 5$ each

Eraser cost: X$ each

Total cost is the number of items (1 magazine) times the cost of each item (5$). We don't know the cost of each eraser, so we represent that using a variable, X.

 

  • 1(5) + 4(X) = 25

 

  • 5 + 4X = 25

 

  • subtract 5 from both sides

 

  • 4X = 25 - 5

 

  • 4X = 20

 

  • divide both sides by 4

 

  • X = 20/4

 

  • X = 5

  • Each eraser cost 5$

Hope this helps :)

Subtract magazine from total:

25 -5 = 20

Divide by number of erasers:

20/4 = 5

Each eraser cost $5

According to a study done by the Pew Research Center, 39% of adult Americans believe that marriage is now obsolete. (a) Suppose
algol13

Answer:

The proportion follows normal distribution,

 Mean u = 0.39

 standard deviation σ = 0.0218

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Lets assume the population proportion ( p ) to be the percentage of adult Americans who believe that marriage is now obsolete.

- We will check for normality:

 Lets take,   p^ = p  (Mean proportion of the distribution)

- The condition of normality,

                  n*p*( 1 - p ) ≥ 10

Where, n : The sample size taken.

                  500*0.39*( 1 - 0.39 ) = 500*0.39*( 0.61 )

                  118.95 ≥ 10

- Hence, with the testing statistics the condition for normality are validated. Hence, the distribution for proportion of adult americans who believe that marriage is now obsolete follows a normal distribution.

- The parameters of the distribution are:

    Mean : u = p^ = p = 0.39

    Standard deviation σ =  \sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n} } =    \sqrt{\frac{0.39*(1-0.39)}{500} }  = \sqrt{\frac{0.39*(0.61)}{500} } =0.0218

Point O is the center of this circle, what is mBCA? <br><br> A) 56<br> B) 62<br> C) 72<br> D) 76
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Answer: B.) 62

sum of interior angles of quadrilateral = 360

lines DB and DA are tangent to the circle, so they're at a right angle to the lines OB and OA respectively. so to find mBOA = 360 - 56 - 90 - 90
so mBOA = 124

mBCA = (1/2)mBOA
mBCA = (1/2)(124)
mBCA = 62°
