a parking meter contains $8.25 in dimes and quarters. after emptying the meter, the worker counts 51 coins. how many quarters an

Marianna [84]

<h3>30 dimes and 21 quarters are present</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "d" be the number of dimes

Let "q" be the number of quarters

1 dime = $ 0.10

1 quarter = $ 0.25

The worker counts 51 coins

Therefore,

d + q = 51

d = 51 - q ---------- eqn 1

<em><u>A parking meter contains $8.25 in dimes and quarters</u></em>

Therefore,

0.10d + 0.25q = 8.25 -------- eqn 2

<em><u>Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2</u></em>

0.10(51 - q) + 0.25q = 8.25

5.1 - 0.10q + 0.25q = 8.25

0.15q = 3.15

Divide both sides by 0.15

Substitute q = 21 in eqn 1

d = 51 - 21

Thus 30 dimes and 21 quarters are present

Jeremy's score was 1.75 standard deviations above the mean. which kf thr following is closest to his percentile rank

Gelneren [198K]

The answer is 96%.

Explanation:
It is generally presumed that the scores are normally distributed.

1) You are given how many standard deviations from the mean Jeremy's score is. This is exactly the definition of the z-score. Therefore z = 1.75

2) Look at a left-tail z-table in order to find the area of the normal curve on the left of your z-score (see picture attached). A = 0.9599

3) Multiply the area by 100 in order to find the percentile:
<span>0.9599 </span>× 100 = 95.99
Therefore, 95.99% of the students scored less than Jeremy.

Hence, the answer is 96%.
