I can't see the next photo but I'm assuming that's what you're asking
Answer:
x = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out an equation
4/5(x) = 32
Step 2: Solve by dividing both sides by 4/5
x = 32/(4/5)
<em>Use KCF (Keep Change Flip) if you do not have a calc.</em>
x = 40
Answer:

And we can assume a normal distribution and then we can solve the problem with the z score formula given by:

And replacing we got:


We can find the probability of interest using the normal standard table and with the following difference:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable who represent the expense and we assume the following parameters:

And for this case we want to find the percent of his expense between 38.6 and 57.8 so we want this probability:

And we can assume a normal distribution and then we can solve the problem with the z score formula given by:

And replacing we got:


We can find the probability of interest using the normal standard table and with the following difference:

3a + 6b = 45
2a - 2b = -12....multiply by 3
----------------
3a + 6b = 45
6a - 6b = - 36 ...(result of multiplying by 3)
---------------add
9a = 9
a = 1
3a + 6b = 45
3(1) + 6b = 45
3 + 6b = 45
6b = 45 - 3
6b = 42
b = 7
solution is : (1,7)
Cindy used 17.25 because 15 × .5 = 2.25 and if you add it to 15 ypu get 17.25
