Answer:

12 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Since on Thursday Glenn and Ben each ate an eight, then total they ate 2*1/8=2/8=¼

¼ of 24 pieces is equivalent to

¼*24=6 pieces

The number of pieces that remain would be 24-6=18 pieces

The one third of leftover ate rhe next day will be equivalent to

⅓ of 18

⅓*18=6 pieces

Remaining pieces next day will be 18-6=12 pieces

Therefore, only 12 pieces out of 24 original pieces remain the following day.

Jade takes 5 minutes more than twice as long as Binh to ride to their friend’s house. If Binh takes x minutes to ride to his fri
skad [1K]

Answer:

It will take Jade (2x + 5) minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us find the expression that represents the time Jade will take

∵ Binh takes x minutes to ride to his friend’s house

∴ The time Binh takes = x minutes

∵ 5 more means + 5

∵ Twice means × 2

∵ Jade takes 5 minutes more than twice as long as Binh to ride to their

   friend’s house

→ Multiply the time Binh takes by 2 and add the product by 5

∵ Binh takes x minutes

∴ The time Jade takes = 2 × x + 5

∴ The time Jade takes = 2x + 5 minutes

∴ It will take Jade (2x + 5) minutes

Scorpion4ik [409]

Complete question :

Standardized tests: In a particular year, the mean score on the ACT test was 19.3 and the standard deviation was 5.3. The mean score on the SAT mathematics test was 532 and the standard deviation was 128. The distributions of both scores were approximately bell-shaped. Round the answers to at least two decimal places. Part: 0/4 Part 1 of 4 (a) Find the z-score for an ACT score of 26. The Z-score for an ACT score of 26 is

Answer:

1.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

For ACT:

Mean score, m = 19.3

Standard deviation, s = 5.3

Zscore for ACT score of 26;

Using the Zscore formula :

(x - mean) / standard deviation

x = 26

Zscore :

(26 - 19.3) / 5.3

= 6.7 / 5.3

= 1.2641509

= 1.26
