Answer:

5 ≥ 9*.15 + x*.25

He can buy up to 14 candies

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money ≥number of peppermints * cost per peppermint + number of sour candies * cost per sour candy

We know he has 5 dollars.  He bought 5 peppermints at $.15 cents each and x sour candies at $.25 each

Substituting in

5 ≥ 9*.15 + x*.25

5≥1.35 + .25x

Subtract 1.35 on each side

5-1.35 ≥ 1.35-1.35+.25x

3.65≥.25x

Divide by .25 on each side

3.65/.25 ≥ .25x/.25

14.6 ≥ x

He can buy up to 14 candies.  You can't buy part of a candy

1. The midpoint of the segment joining points (a, b) and ( j, k) is: a. (j-a,k-b) b. ((j-a)/2,(k-b)/2) c. (j+a,k+b) d. ((j+a)/2,

1. The midpoint of the segment joining points (a, b) and ( j, k) is ((j+a)/2,(k+b)/2)

2. Let the coordinate of H be (a, b)
T(0, 4) = ((a + 0)/2, (b + 2)/2)
(a + 0)/2 = 0 => a + 0 = 0 => a = 0
(b + 2)/2 = 4 => b + 2 = (2 x 4) = 8 => b = 8 - 2 = 6
Therefore, the cordinate of H is (0, 6)

3. Point (-4, 3) lies in Quadrant II

4. Point (6, 0) lies on the x-axis

5. Any line with no slope is parallel to the y-axis

7. a is the value of the x-coordinate.
5a + 3 = 8
5a = 8 - 3 = 5
a = 5/5 = 1
a = 1

8. Equation of a circle is given by (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2; where (a, b) is the center and r is the radius.
For the given circle (x + 5)^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 36 => (x - (-5))^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 6^2 => a = -5 and b = 7.
Therefore, its center point is (-5, 7)

9. Equation of a circle is given by (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2; where (a, b) is the center and r is the radius.
For the given circle (x + 5)^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 36 => (x - (-5))^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 6^2 => r = 6.
Therefore, its radius is 6

10. If the equation of a circle is (x - 2)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = 4, the center is point (2, 6).

The average score of 100 students taking a statistics final was 70 with a standard deviation of 7. Assuming a normal distributio
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

74.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

mean\left ( \mu \right )=70

Standard deviation \left ( \sigma \right )=7

For Top 25%

P\left ( Z

and Z value for 75 % is 0.6744

Thus score which separates the Top 25% of students is

=\mu +\sigma \cdot Z

=70+7\cdot 0.6744=74.7208
