Answer:

7 books

Step-by-step explanation:

make an equation

x = # of books each book is $4 so its 4x

the shipping fee no matter how many books he buys will be $2 so it's just 2

the equation looks like this:

4x + 2 = 30

we set equal to 30 cuz he can't spend more than $30

solve for x

4x = 30 -2

4x = 28

x = 7

Brett can buy no more than 7 books.

You are challenged to a lucky draw game. If you draw a face card (K, Q, J) from a standard deck of cards, you earn 10 points. If
Aleksandr [31]

The Expected value of a draw from the given question is; A; 0.77

We are told the face cards are K, Q, J. This means that there are 3 face cards for each of the 4 suits.

Since you earn 10 points for each face card, it means that;

total possible gain = 10 × 3 × 4 = 120

In a deck of cards, there are a total of 52 cards.

This means that;

Number of cards that are not K, Q or J = 52 - (4 × 3) = 40

Since 2 points are lost for drawing any of this 40 cards, then;

Total possible loss = 40 × 2 = 80

Expected gain = 120 - 80

Expected gain = 40

Expected value of a draw = 40/52

Expected value of a draw = 0.77

A study studied the birth weights of 1,278 babies born in the united states. the mean weight was 3234 grams with a standard devi
babymother [125]
<span>1220 Subtracting the lower boundary of 1492 grams from the mean of 3234 gives you 1742 grams below the mean. Dividing 1742 by the standard deviation of 871 gives you 2 standard deviations below the curve. Now doing the same with the upper limit of 4976 grams also gives you 2 standard deviations above the mean (4976-3234)/871 = 2 So you now look for what percentage of the population lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean. Standard lookup tables will indicate that 95.4499736% of the population will be within 2Ď of the mean. So multiply 1278 by 0.954499736 giving 1219.851. Then round to the nearest whole number and you have an estimated 1220 babies that weigh between 1492 grams and 4976 grams.</span>
