Answer:

9 Quarters

8 Dimes

3 Nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

We let the number of quarters be q

number of dimes be d

and

number of nickels be n

Since quarters are worth 0.25, dimes are worth 0.10 and nickels are worth 0.05 and total worth is 3.20, we can write an equation as:

0.25q + 0.10d + 0.05n = 3.20

Next,

3 times as many quarters as Nickels, we can write:

q = 3n

and

5 more dimes than nickel, we can write:

d = n + 5

Substituting these last 2 equations in the first and solving for n gives us:

0.25q + 0.10d + 0.05n = 3.20

0.25(3n) + 0.10(n+5) + 0.05n = 3.20

0.75n + 0.10n +0.5 + 0.05n = 3.20

0.9n = 2.70

n = 2.70/0.9 = 3

n = 3

We know q = 3n, so

q = 3(3) = 9

Also, we know d = n + 5, which means:

d = 3 + 5 = 8

Thus,

There are:

9 Quarters

8 Dimes

3 Nickels

25, 8, 10, 35, 5, 45, 40, 30, 20 What is the upper quartile of the data set above?A.35

Vlada [557]

<span>An upper quartile is the range of numbers above the median in a set. Thus, the numbers have to be rearranged mentally or on paper. Fortunately, there are an odd set of numbers, so one number, 25, is the median. The upper quartile is 30, 35, 40, 45.</span>

The number of phone calls that Actuary Ben receives each day has a Poisson distribution with mean 0.1 during each weekday and me

Dovator [93]

Answer:

There is a 0.73% probability that Ben receives a total of 2 phone calls in a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

$e = 2.71828$ is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given time interval.

The problem states that:

The number of phone calls that Actuary Ben receives each day has a Poisson distribution with mean 0.1 during each weekday and mean 0.2 each day during the weekend.

To find the mean during the time interval, we have to find the weighed mean of calls he receives per day.

There are 5 weekdays, with a mean of 0.1 calls per day.

The weekend is 2 days long, with a mean of 0.2 calls per day.

So:

$\mu = \frac{5(0.1) + 2(0.2)}{7} = 0.1286$

If today is Monday, what is the probability that Ben receives a total of 2 phone calls in a week?

This is $P(X = 2)$ . So:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-0.1286}*0.1286^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0073$

There is a 0.73% probability that Ben receives a total of 2 phone calls in a week.

If two supplementary angles are in the ratio of 4:5 the measure of the larger angle is

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angles be 4x , 5x

4x + 5x = 180 { supplementary}

9x = 180

x = 180/9

x = 20

Larger angle= 5x = 5* 20 = 100
