Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
- Length of the one portion of the board = x feet
- Length of the another portion = (7x – 9) feet
According to the question,
Total length = Sum of the length of the two pieces
Total length = {x + (7x – 9)} feet
Total length = {x + 7x – 9} feet
<u>Total length = (8x – 9) feet</u>
Therefore, the total length of the board as a simplified expression in x is (8x – 9) feet.
If x = # of quarters, then, the # of dimes will be equal to 2x. The total value (z) would be equal to:
z = 0.25x + 0.10(2x)
Then, since you switch the quarters and the dimes, and you have a new total, the resulting equation will be:
1.2 + z = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)
Plug in the values you know:
1.2 + (0.25x + 0.10(2x)) = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)
Solve for x:
1.2 + (0.25x + 0.20x) = 0.50x + 0.10x
1.2 + 0.45x = 0.60x
1.2 = 0.15x
x = 1.2/0.15 = 8
This means that there are 8 Quarters in her bag right now. So, the amount of dimes is just 2x which is 16. So your answer will be:
She has 8 Quarters and 16 Dimes in her bag right now. Or, $3.60.
If this doesn't make sense, then tell me. I have some resources where I got the answer from to put it into simplest terms. I have the website if you want.
Step-by-step explanation:
Henry is deeper in the water than Ray because -20 < -15
Hope it helps <3
The answer is -4 because 4+2 is equal to 6 and then 6-2 is equal to 4 and then times into the number of 2 the answer is 4x2 is equal to 8 and then minus into the negative 5 an the answer is -4.
Considering the number of questions incorrect from classmates on a quiz {10, 11, 12, 13, 13, 13, 14, 15, 16, 16, 17, 18, 18, 19,

Answer:
According to the Empirical Rule, 68% of the data should fall between 11.98 and 18.02
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following data in the question:
10, 11, 12, 13, 13, 13, 14, 15, 16, 16, 17, 18, 18, 19, 20
Formula:
where 
are data points, 
is the mean and n is the number of observations.
Sum of squares of differences = 25 + 16 + 9 + 4 + 4+ 4 + 1 + 0+ 1+ 1 + 4 + 9 + 9+ 16 + 25 = 128
Empirical rule:
- According to this rule almost all the data lies within three standard deviation of the mean for a normal distribution.
- About 68% of data lies within one standard deviation of the mean.
- About 95% of data lies within two standard deviations of mean.
- Arround 99.7% of data lies within three standard deviation of mean.
Thus, by empirical rule,
According to the Empirical Rule, 68% of the data should fall between 11.98 and 18.02
