Cranberry juice costs $6.30 per quart and apple juice costs $3.60 per quart. Terrence wants to know how many quarts q of cranber

ry juice he should mix with 4 quarts of apple juice to make cranberry-apple juice. He also wants to sell the juice at cost for $4.50 per quart. Which equation below represents the situation?
A. 3.60(q – 4) + 25.20 = 4.50q
B. 3.60q + 25.20 = 4.50(q + 4)
C. 6.30(q – 4) + 14.40 = 4.50q
D. 6.30q + 14.40 = 4.50(q + 4)

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: D is the correct answer.

D. 6.30q + 14.40 = 4.50(q + 4)

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Cranberry juice costs $6.30 per quart and apple juice costs $3.60 per quart.

Cost of q quarts of Cranberry juice will be: $ 6.30q

and cost of 4 quarts of apple juice will be: $ (3.60×4)= $ 14.40

Total quarts of items will be: q+4

He also wants to sell the juice at cost for $4.50 per quart.

This means that the total cost to sell the juices will be: $ 4.50(q+4)

Also, Total cost= Cost of q quarts of cranberry juice+cost of 4 quarts of apple juice.

i.e.

Total cost=6.30q + 14.40

Hence, we have:

6.30q + 14.40 = 4.50(q + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3}{4}x=6$

Find: x

--------------------------------------

$\frac{3}{4}x=6$

Also equals to:

$\frac{3}{4} * x=6$

In that case, we can divide by $\frac{3}{4}$ on both sides.

$\frac{3}{4} * x=6$

÷ $\frac{3}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{4}$

$x=6$ ÷ $\frac{3}{4}$

x= 8

Solve for x: [x - 2 + 10 = 12

Monica [59]

Answer:x-2+10=12

We move all terms to the left:

x-2+10-(12)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x-4=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

x=4

A woman is randomly selected from the 18–24 age group. For women of this group, systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) are normally

Naddik [55]

Answer:

$X \sim N(114.8,13.1)$

Where $\mu=114.8$ and $\sigma=13.1$

We are interested on this probability

$P(X>140)$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

$P(z>1.924)=1-P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(114.8,13.1)$

Where $\mu=114.8$ and $\sigma=13.1$

We are interested on this probability

$P(X>140)$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this: $P(X>140)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{140-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{140- 1114.8}{2.6})=P(z>1.924)$ And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

$P(z>1.924)=1-P(z$
