Answer: $85,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In a given population of two-earner male-female couples, male earnings have a mean of $40,000 per year and a standard deviation of $12,000.

\mu_M=40,000\ \ ;\sigma_M=12,000

Female earnings have a mean of $45,000 per year and a standard deviation of $18,000.

\mu_F=45,000\ \ ;\sigma_F=18,000

If  C denote the combined earnings for a randomly selected couple.

Then, the mean of C will be :-

\mu_c=\mu_M+\mu_F\\\\=40,000+45,000=85,000

Hence, the mean of C = $85,000

What occurs when electric chargers build up on objects
Nimfa-mama [501]

<u>Answer:</u>

when electric chargers build up on objects is called Static Electricity

<u>Explanation:</u>

When electric charges are built up on objects which can happen due to rubbing or pulling apart of some materials, we get positive charges (+) get collected on surface of one material and negative charges (-) on another. These objects stay charged for some time till they aren't transferred elsewhere through interaction.

This electrically charged surfaces creates a shock type effect when touched. This charging of surfaces of objects due to accumulation of electrons or protons is known as static electricity or static discharge.

What is the sine and cosine of A?
valkas [14]
Sin is opposite over hypotenuse, so sin(A) = 4/5. Cos its adjacent over hypotenuse, so cos(A) = 3/5

What is the solution of the system x − 3y = –13 and 5x + 7y = 34? A. `x = (6)/(5)`, y = 4 B. `x = (7)/(2), y = (9)/(2)` C. `x =
Masteriza [31]

For this case we have the following system of equations:

x-3y = -13\\5x + 7y = 34

From the first equation we clear "x":

x = -13 + 3y

We substitute in the second equation:

5 (-13 + 3y) + 7y = 34

We apply distributive property:

-65 + 15y + 7y = 34

We add similar terms:

-65 + 22y = 34

We add 65 to both sides:

22y = 34 + 65\\22y = 99

We divide between 22 on both sides:

y = \frac {99} {22}\\y = \frac {9} {2}

We look for the value of the variable "x":

x = -13 + 3 \frac {9} {2}\\x = -13 + \frac {27} {2}\\x = \frac {-26 + 27} {2}\\x = \frac {1} {2}

Thus, the solution of the system is:

(x, y): (\frac {1} {2}, \frac {9} {2})

ANswer:

(x, y): (\frac {1} {2}, \frac {9} {2})

Answer:

The entire area of the sailboat is 60cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the area of this shape by breaking it down into simpler shapes and adding up their individual areas.

In this case, the areas we'll use are the rectangle at the bottom, and the pair of triangles at the top.

Because the two triangles can be put together to form a single triangle, we don't need to measure them independently.  We can simply take the total length of their bases, multiply it by their height, and divide by two.  This follows the rule that the area of a triangle is equal to the area of the square that contains it divided by two.

(2cm + 3cm) × 6cm

= 5cm × 6cm

= 30cm²

The rectangle's area is of course equal to its width times its height, so we can say:

2.5cm × 12cm

= 30cm²

The total area of the shapes then is 30cm² + 30 cm², giving us a total area of 60cm²
