So here is the answer. Initially, Ed's toy cars compared to Pete's toy cars was 5:2. So for every 5 cars that Ed has, Pete has 2. Now that Ed gave 30 cars to Pete. So here it goes. The total number of ratio units is 5+2=7, so each will have an equal number if they both have 3.5 ratio units. That is, if Ed transfers to Pete 1.5 ratio units, their car counts will be equal. Thus 1.5 ratio units = 30 cars, or 1 ratio unit = 20 cars. Therefore, this makes <span> 7*20 cars = 140 cars.
</span>Hope this helps.

The distribution of individual incomes in the United States is strongly skewed to the right. In 2013, the mean and median income
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The mean would be $322,343 and the median would be $196,723.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the distribution of individual incomes is skewed to the right, it means that the distribution has a long right tail.

Drawing a distribution with this characteristic, we can see how the majority of the data falls into the left side of the graphic, meaning that a lot of people receive less income. Following this reasoning, the mean which is the amount of the data (in this case individual income) divided by the amount of people, would be the higher number, meaning that the few people who earn more money would influence in making this number higher.

Following this reasoning, the median (which is not influenced by this difference) would be the less high number.

A certain population of mice is growing exponentially. After one month there are 48. After 2 months there are "192" mice. Write
REY [17]

Answer:

P(t) = 12e^1.3863k

Step-by-step explanation:

The general exponential equation is represented as;

P(t) = P0e^kt

P(t) is the population of the mice after t years

k is the constant

P0 is the initial population of the mice

t is the time in months

If after one month there are 48 population, then;

P(1) = P0e^k(1)

48 = P0e^k ...... 1

Also if after 2 months there are "192" mice, then;

192 = P0e^2k.... 2

Divide equation 2 by 1;

192/48 = P0e^2k/P0e^k

4 = e^2k-k

4 = e^k

Apply ln to both sides

ln4 = lne^k

k = ln4

k = 1.3863

Substitute e^k into equation 1 to get P0

From 1, 48 = P0e^k

48 = 4P0

P0 = 48/4

P0 = 12

Get the required equation by substituting k = 1.3863 and P0 = 12 into equation 1, we have;

P(t) = 12e^1.3863k

This gives the equation representing the scenario
