Answer:

They  are taking 12 2 credit courses

The are taking 4  1 credit courses

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 1 credit courses

y = 2 credit courses

The number of courses is 16

x+y = 16

The number of credits is 28 so multiply the course by the number of credits

1x+2y=28

Subtract the first equation from the second equation

x+2y =28

-x-y=-16

-----------------

y = 12

They  are taking 12 2 credit courses

We still need to find the 1 credit courses

x+y = 16

x+12= 16

Subtract 12 from each side

x-12-12 = 16-12

x =4

The are taking 4  1 credit courses

Julie made identical necklaces out of shell she collected at the beach all together she we use 10 Brown shells 15 black shells a
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Therefore the number of brown shells in each necklace was  = 2 brown shells.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Julie made identical necklaces then we can say that number of each different colored shells were equally distributed among the necklaces.

So we can say that to find the number of necklaces we have to find the GCD (greatest common denominator) of the different colored shells.

Therefore the GCD of 10, 15 and 20 is 5.

Therefore Julia made 5 necklaces.

Therefore the number of brown shells in each necklace was = \frac{10}{5} = 2 shells.

For a population with u=100 and a=20, what is the z-score that corresponds to x=90?
max2010maxim [7]
I guess that u = μ & that a=σ. If so:

μ =100 & that σ =20 & x=20

Z score = (x-μ) / σ  ==> Z score = (90-100)/20 ==> Z = - 0.5
