Answer:

34 nickels, 39 dimes, 78 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

q = quarters, d = dimes, n = nickels

n = d - 5

q = 2d

.25q + .10d + .05n = 7.55

<em>Plug in the first 2 equations into the third one</em>

.5d + .10d + .05(d - 5) = 7.55

<em>Open up the Parenthesis</em>

.5d + .10d + .5d - .25 = 7.55

<em>Combine Like Terms</em>

.2d - .25 = 7.55-->

.2d = 7.8 -->

d = 39 -->

n = 39 - 5 = 34

q = 2(39) = 78

5. Thickness measurements of ancient prehistoric Native American pot shards discovered in a Hopi village are approximately norma
Triss [41]

Answer:

percent (%) of ancient prehistoric thinner than 3 is 0.0013

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

mean =  5.1 millimeters (mm)

standard deviation = 0.7 mm

to find out

percent (%) of ancient prehistoric thinner than 3

solution

we have given mean and SD

so Z will be = x -mean  / SD

Z = ( x - 5.1 ) / 0.7

so P( x < 3 ) = P ( (x - 5.1 ) / 0.7  <  ( 3 - 5.1 ) / 0.7 )

P( Z  = ( 3 - 5.1 ) / 1.5 )

P( Z  =  -3 ) = 0.0013

percent (%) of ancient prehistoric thinner than 3 is 0.0013
