Answer:

<em>The number of students in the drama club is 7 and the number in the choir is 14</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Number of students in choir club

Y =  Number of students in drama club

<u>First equation:</u>

x + y = 21

<u></u>

<u>Since we know that there are 7 more students in the choir club than the drama club, that means:</u>

x + 7 = y

<u>A little trick that you can do to find y is this:</u>

21 students in the choir and drama club - 7

=> 14

Meaning that y is 14

<u>So lets go back into our second equation:</u>

x + 7 = 14

7 + 7 =14

x=7

<u>Plug both variables in:</u>

7 + 14 = 21

So that means that there are 7 students in the drama club and 14 students in the choir club.

Anika [276]

Answer:

About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Quality control studies for Speedy Jet Computer Printers show the lifetime of the printer follows a normal distribution with

mean \mu = 4 and standard deviation  \sigma = 0.78

If the company wishes to replace no more than 10% of the printers.

To find : How long should Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed ?

Solution :

Using Z- table,  

Z value corresponding to 10% or 0.10 = -1.28.

Applying z-score formula,

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

The value of x is given by,

x=(z\times \sigma)+\mu

Substitute the values,

x=(-1.28\times 0.78)+4

x=-0.9984+4

x=3.0016

So, approx 3 years.

Therefore, About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.
