Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangle to find x. Put the smaller triangle over the larger triangle.

11 10

-------- = ----------

121+11 10 +5x+10

Combine like terms

11 10

-------- = ----------

132 20+5x

Using cross products

11 (20+5x) = 132*10

Distribute

220 +55x = 1320

Subtract 220 from each side

220-220 +55x = 1320-220

55x = 1100

Divide by 55

55x/55= 1100/55

x =20

Vending machines can be adjusted to reject coins above and below certain weights. The weights of legal U.S. quarters have a norm

tigry1 [53]

Answer: The percentage of legal quarters will be rejected by the vending machine = 2.275%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The weights of legal U.S. quarters have a normal distribution with a mean of 5.67 grams and a standard deviation of 0.07 gram.

Let x be the weights of legal U.S. quarters .

Required probability: $P(x5.81)$

$=P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\dfrac{5.81-5.67}{0.07})\\\\=P(z2)\approx0.02275 \ \ \ [By\ P-value\ calculator]$

The percentage of legal quarters will be rejected by the vending machine = 2.275%
