Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The mean μ = 310

The standard deviation σ =  40

Using the empirical rule to determine the following :

a. About 95 % of organs will be between what weights?

At 95% data values lies within 2 standard deviations of mean.

Thus, the  required range is :

= μ ± 2σ

= ( 310 - 2 (40) ,  310 + 2(40) )  

= (230, 390)

b. What percentage of organs weighs between 270 grams and 350 grams

Here:

μ ± σ = (310 - 40,  310 + 40)

μ ± σ = (270, 350)

Using empirical rule, 68% data values is in the range within 1 standard deviation of mean. This implies that 68% data values lie between (270, 350).

c. What percentage of organs weighs less than 270 grams or more than 350 grams?

The complement theorem can be use to estimate the  percentage of organs that weighs less than 270 grams or more than 350 grams,

This can be illustrated as :

= 100 % - 68 %

= 32 %

d. What percentage of organs weighs between 230 grams and 430 grams?

Using the empirical rule:

The percentage of organs weighs between 230 grams and 430 grams is:

u - 2σ  and  u + 3σ respectively.

6. One variable only so pretty straightforward.

length-x+4

width-x

x+x+4=80

2x=76

x=38

x+4=42

answer: length 42cm and width 38cm

7. Another money problem!

n-# of nickels

q-# of quarters

n=3+q

0.05n+0.25q=2.85

Substitution works like a charm!

0.05(3+q)+0.25q=2.85

0.15+0.05q+0.25q=2.85

0.3q=2.7

q=9

n=3+q

n=3+9

n=12

answer: 9 nickels and 12 quarters

8. One variable situation again.

Ann's money-2b+9

Betty's money-b

b+2b+9=60

3b=51

b=17

2b+9=43

answer: Ann has $43 and Betty has $17.

9. # of red m&m's-x+1

# of blue m&m's-x

x+1+x=13

x=6

x+1=7

answer: 6 blue and 7 red m&m's

10. a-number of adult tickets

s-number of student tickets

a+s=785 ----> a=785-s

5a+2s=3280

5(785-s)+2s=3280

-3s=-645

s=215

a+s=785

a+215=785

a=570

answer: 215 children tickets and 570 adult tickets

Which of the following is equal to (2x/3 - 7) + 7
diamong [38]
<span>The correct answer is D. The number 7 is subtracted from the first term, 2x/3, but then an equal sum is added, and the two effectively cancel each other out. This means that the value of the first expression is essentially 2x/3, which is option D.</span>
