Answer:

26 socks

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 48 socks here. Let us assume you pulled out 24 socks at a go and all are red. Now, you would have exhausted the number of red socks here. You would be left with only blue socks which you can pull one after the other to give a total of  26 socks pulled out to have 2 blue socks at least.

Set them equal to each other because they are parallel

3x+7=5x-17

Subtract 3x from both sides

7=2x-17

Add 17 on both sides

24=2x

Divide by 2 on both sides

12=x

The distribution of the amount of money spent by first-time gamblers at a major casino in las vegas is approximately normal in s
Lostsunrise [7]

Solution: We are given:

\mu=600, \sigma =120

We need to find the z value corresponding to probability 0.84, in order to find the how much money almost 84% of gamblers spent at casino.

Using the standard normal table, we have:

z(0.85) = 0.9945

Now we will use the z score formula to find the required amount:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

0.9945=\frac{x-600}{120}

0.9945 \times 120 = x - 600

119.34 = x - 600

x = 600 + 119.34        

x = 719.34

x = 720 approximately

Therefore, almost 84% of gamblers spent more than $720 amount of money at this casino.

- sqrt737 is rational or irrational
denpristay [2]

Answer: <u>Irrational </u>

It's irrational because of how 37 comes out of the square root.

For example:

The square root of 64 comes out to 8, which is a whole number. But 37, comes out as an integer and a decimal.
