Answer:

The number divided by was <span>32/45</span>

Explanation:

Let the unknown number be x

Then <span>3 <span>1/5</span>÷x=4 <span>1/2</span></span>

Write as

<span> <span>16/5</span>÷x=<span>9/2</span></span>

Suppose we had the common denominator of 10 then we would have:

<span> <span>32/10</span>÷x=<span>45/10</span></span>

Get rid of the 10: multiply through out by 10 giving:

<span> 32÷x=45</span>

<span>⇒<span>32x</span>=45</span>

<span>⇒x=<span>32/<span>45</span></span></span>

The weights of baskets of strawberries are normally distributed with a mean of 3.8 ounces and a standard deviation of 1.1 ounces
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

6 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

this one is mainly elimination. 3.8 and 4.9 cant be because they're too close to the mean. and 7.1 is too far. you can also use z-score. the z score of .975 is 1.96 we can plug that into out formula so

1.96=(x-3.8)/1.1

multiply both sides by 1.1 and then add 3.8

you can also use scientific calculator.

second vars, 3, the area is your percent so .975, the u is mean so 3.8, the o is standard deviation so 1.1
