Estimate the unit rate if 12 pairs of socks sell for $5.79.

1 answer:

3 0

If 12 pairs of socks sell for $5.79, then the unit rate is 12 : 5.79. If we want to find a unit rate for one pair of socks, we need to divide 5.79 by 12:
5.79 / 12 = 0,4825
So the unit rate is 1 : 0.4825

What is the solution set of these system5x-2y=17 and 4x-7=13?

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

x=5

y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let us solve for x using the $4x-7=13$ equation by isolating terms containing the variable:

$4x-7=13\\4x=20\\\fbox{x=5}$

Great! x is 5... let's find y.

Step 2:

Since we know the value of x, we can use what we know to find y using the other equation:

$5x-2y=17\\$

Given that x=5, we can replace x with 5.

$5*5-2y=17\\25-2y=17\\2y=8\\\\\fbox{y=4}$

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

The distribution of heights for adult men in a certain population is approximately normal with mean 70 inches and standard devia

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The interval (meassured in Inches) that represent the middle 80% of the heights is [64.88, 75.12]

Step-by-step explanation:

I beleive those options corresponds to another question, i will ignore them. We want to know an interval in which the probability that a height falls there is 0.8.

In such interval, the probability that a value is higher than the right end of the interval is (1-0.8)/2 = 0.1

If X is the distribuition of heights, then we want z such that P(X > z) = 0.1. We will take W, the standarization of X, wth distribution N(0,1)

$W = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} = \frac{X-70}{4}$

The values of the cumulative distribution function of W, denoted by $\phi$ , can be found in the attached file. Lets call $y = \frac{z-70}{4}$ . We have
