Your question has been heard loud and clear.

let the ratio be m:n

From section formula

(-3n + 4m)/(m+n) = 2

-3n + 4m = 2m+2n

5n = 2m

m/n = 5/2

m:n = 5:2

A pizza shop sells three sizes of pizza, and they track how often each size gets ordered along with how much they profit from ea

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The mean and standard deviation of Y is $6.56 and $2.77 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let Y represent their profit on a randomly selected pizza with this promotion.

The company is going to run a promotion where customers get $2 off any size pizza.

Therefore, $Y=\text{Profit}-\$2$

$Y=X-\$2$

So the mean will be reduced by 2.

$\mu_Y=\mu_X-\$2$

$\mu_Y =\$ 8.56 - \$2$

$\mu_Y =\$6.56$

If we add or subtract any constant number from a given distribution, then the mean is changed by the same number(i.e constant number) but the standard deviation will remain the same.

Therefore $\sigma_Y=\sigma_X=2.77$

Hence, the mean and standard deviation of Y is $6.56 and $2.77 respectively.

If the width and length of a rectangle are both increased by 10%, by what percent does the area of the rectangle increase?

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know Perimeter of rectangle

= 2 (Length + Width)

If width and length are increased by 10%

New length= L + 10/100L = (1.1) L

New width = W + 10/100W = (1.1) W

Perimeter = 2 [(1.1) L + (1.1) W]

Perimeter = 2 (1.1) (L + W)

Perimeter = (2.2) (L + W)

Increase in perimeter = 2.2 (L + W) - 2 (L + W)

The increase in Perimeter = 0.2 (L + W)

Percent increase

= 0.2 (L + W)/2 (L + W) × 100

= 0.2/2 × 100

= 0.1 × 100

= 10%
