Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio, 3 + 4 = 7

Divide the amount of marbles by 7 to find the value of one part of the ratio

42 ÷ 7 = 6 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

red marbles = 3 × 6 = 18

Sherri saves nickels and dimes in a coin purse for her daughter. The total value of the coins in the purse is $0.95. The number
forsale [732]
I’m guessing that this is for systems of equations?
n - nickels
d - dimes

These are the equations you start off with.
n = 5d-2
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05n

Substitute the top equation for n into the variable n in the bottom equation.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05(5d-2)

Solve for d.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.25d-0.10
1.05 = 0.35d
3 = d

Substitute d into the top equation and solve for n.
n = 5(3)-2
n = 15-3
n = 12

There are 3 dimes and 12 nickels in the coin purse! Hope this helped <3

What is the Z-score for Paula if she got 1400 on the SAT, the mean was 1100 and the standard deviation was 275? step by step how
Setler [38]

mu = 1100 = population mean

sigma = 275 = population standard deviation

x = 1400 = raw score

z = z score

z = (x-mu)/sigma

z = (1400-1100)/(275)

z = 300/275

z = 1.0909090909091 approximately

z = 1.09

Convention is to round to two decimal places so that you can use a Z table to look up the area under the curve (which helps determine probability).

The positive z score is due to Paula's raw score being above the mean.

6.25 or 6 ¼

Step-by-step explanation:

5 × 10⁴ = 5 × 10000= 50,000

8 ×10³ = 8 × 1000= 8000

50,000/8000 = 6.25 or 6 1/4

Large company (50k) is 6.25 times bigger than smaller(8k)
