Answer:

There were 40 cups of coffee and 19 cups of tea sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cups sold = 59

Let the number of tea cups = x

Let the number of coffee cups = y

Then, \[x+y=59\] ------------------- (1)

Total amount collected = $108.50

=> \[1.5 x + 2y = 108.50\]  -------------------- (2)

From (1), \[y=59 - x\] ------------------------ (3)

Substituting in (2):

=> \[1.5 x + 2 (59-x) = 108.50\]

=> \[1.5 x + 118- 2x = 108.50\]

=> \[-0.5 x = -9.5\]

=> \[x = 19\]

Substituting in (3):

\[y=59 - 19\]

=>\[y=40\]

The heights of baby giraffe are normally distributed with a mean of 63.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.5 inches. If 100 b
ANEK [815]

Answer:

P(\bar X

And we can solve this using the following z score formula:

z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And if we use this formula we got:

z = \frac{63-63.6}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{100}}}= -2.4

So we can find this probability equivalently like this:

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 heights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(63.6,2.5)  

Where \mu=63.6 and \sigma=2.5

We select n =100. Since the distribution for X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

We want this probability:

P(\bar X

And we can solve this using the following z score formula:

z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And if we use this formula we got:

z = \frac{63-63.6}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{100}}}= -2.4

So we can find this probability equivalently like this:

P( Z

If y varies inversely as x and y = 27 when x = 12 , find x when y = - 9 .
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

x = - 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 27 when x = 12, then

k = yx = 27 × 12 = 324, thus

y = \frac{324}{x} ← is the equation of variation

When y = - 9, then

- 9 = \frac{324}{x} ( multiply both sides by x )

- 9x = 324 ( divide both sides by - 9 )

x = - 36
