5+x=32
x= the number of apples Sarah had before
5+x=32
subtract 5 from both sides
x=27
Answer:
10 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x pounds be the amount of mixed nuts we require.
Amount of peanuts in this mix = 0.70x pounds. Amount of peanuts in the 20% mix = 0.20*15 = 3 pounds.
So we have the equation:-
0.70 x + 3 = 0.40(x + 15)
0.70 x + 3 = 0.40(x + 15)
0.70x + 3 = 0.40x + 6
0.70x - 0.40x = 6 - 3
0.30x = 3
x = 10.
Given that
the weight of football players is distributed with a mean of 200 pounds and a standard deviation of 25 pounds.
And we need to find What is the minimum weight of the middle 95% of the players?
Explanation -
Using the Empirical Rule, 95% of the distribution will fall within 2 times of the standard deviation from the mean.
Two standard deviations = 2 x 25 pounds = 50 pounds
So the minimum weight = 200 pounds - 50 pounds = 150 pounds
Hence the final answer is 150 pounds.
