Answer:

t = pn

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to find the relationship between total cost and the number of items.

First we would represent the relationship between total cost and number of items with variables

Let the total cost = t

and the number of items = n

Total cost t is proportional to the number n of items:

t ∝ n

t = kn

where k is constant

Since it is purchased at a constant price p, the constant of proportionality would be p. the k would be replaced with p

t = pn

A person's blood glucose level and diabetes are closely related. Let x be a random variable measured in milligrams of glucose pe
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

a) 0.8599 = 85.99% probability that x is more than 60.

b) 0.1788 = 17.88% probability that x is less than 110.

c) 0.6811 = 68.11% probability that x is between 60 and 110.

d) 0.0643 = 6.43% probability that x is greater than 125.

In a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  
  • After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

  • The mean is of 87, thus \mu = 87.
  • The standard deviation is of 25, thus \sigma = 25.

Item a:

This probability is <u>1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 60</u>, thus:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{60 - 87}{25}

Z = -1.08

Z = -1.08 has a p-value of 0.1401.

1 - 0.1401 = 0.8599

0.8599 = 85.99% probability that x is more than 60.

Item b:

This probability is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 110</u>, thus:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{110 - 87}{25}

Z = 0.92

Z = 0.92 has a p-value of 0.8212.

1 - 0.8212 = 0.1788.

0.1788 = 17.88% probability that x is less than 110.

Item c:

This probability is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 110 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 60</u>.

From the previous two items, 0.8212 - 0.1401 = 0.6811.

0.6811 = 68.11% probability that x is between 60 and 110.

Item d:

This probability is <u>1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 125</u>, thus:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{125 - 87}{25}

Z = 1.52

Z = 1.52 has a p-value of 0.9357.

1 - 0.9357 = 0.0643.

0.0643 = 6.43% probability that x is greater than 125.

Helpp i dont understand

Betina is 155 centimeters tall or 1 meter and 55 centimeters

1 meter = 100 centimeters
100 + 87 = 187 , Brian’s height in centimeters

Since Bonnie is 58 centimeters shorter we will subtract 187-58 which gives us 129 centimeters.

Betina is 26 centimeters taller than Bonnie so we add 26+129 =155

Therefore Betina is 155 centimeters tall or 1 meter and 55 centimeters.

Hope this helped! :)

The third angle in an isosceles triangle is 32 more than 2 times as large as each of the two base angles. Find the measure of ea
DIA [1.3K]

Answer: the third angle is 106 degrees.

The base angles are 37 degrees each.

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles triangle, the base angles are equal.

Let x represent the measure of each of the base angles.

The third angle in an isosceles triangle is 32 more than 2 times as large as each of the two base angles. It means that the measure of the third angle would be

(2x + 32) degrees

The sum of the angles inna triangle is 180 degrees. It means that

x + x + 2x + 32 = 180

4x = 180 - 32

4x = 148

x = 37

The third angle is

2x = 32 = (2 × 37) + 32

= 74 + 32 = 106
