Answer: 68
Explanation:
Let x be the age of Mr Jasmi
y be the age of Miss Haslinda
a + b + c be the age of the 3 children
We can write:
(x + y + a + b + c)/5 = 38
But:
(a + b + c)/3 = 18
a + b + c = 18(3)
a + b + c = 54
Substitute this value to our first equation
(x + y + 54)/5 = 38
x + y + 54 = 38(5)
x + y + 54 = 190
x + y = 190 - 54
x + y = 136
Thus:
Mean age of (mr jasmi and miss Linda) = (x+y)/2
But x + y = 136
=> mean age = 136/2 = 68
The parent function is ...
... f(x) = |x|
This is the absolute value function, equal x when x ≥ 0, and equal to -x when x < 0. Its graph has the shape of a V with the vertex at the origin and "legs" of slope ±1.
The function g(x) is the same function with 2 added. The addition of 2 moves every value of f(x) up 2 units, so translates the whole graph upward by 2 units.

A set of magical wand prices are normally distributed with a mean of 50 dollars and a standard deviation of 4 dollars. A blackthorn wand has a price of 45.20. What proportion of wand prices are lower than the price of the blackthorn wand? You may round your answer to four decimal places
Answer:
0.1151
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve using z score formula
z = (x-μ)/σ, where
x is the raw score = $45.20
μ is the population mean = $50
σ is the population standard deviation = $4
We are solving for x < 45.20
Hence:
z = 45.20 - 50/4
z = -1.2
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x<45.20) = 0.11507
Approximately to 4 decimal places = 0.1151
Therefore, the proportion of wand prices that are lower than the price of the blackthorn wand is 0.1151
Let d is the number of days of rental car
At Trinity's Tire World, $50 a day plus $75 fee: 50*d + 75
At India's Auto, $35 a day plus $105 fee: 35*d + 105
To find out after how many days, they both cost the same
50*d + 75 = 35*d + 105
50d + 35d = 105 - 75
15d = 30
d = 30/15
d = 2
Answer: after 2 days, they both cost the same amount of money
Proof:
50*d + 75 = 50*2 + 75 = 100 + 75 = 175
35*d + 105 = 35*2 + 105 = 70 + 105 = 175
Hope that helps
