Answer:
A- X= 20÷5-3
B- 20÷5=4; 4-3=1
C- X=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, well we have to work backwards. 20 cookies, and she makes 5 bags. We need to find out what 'x' means. To do that, we take 20 cookies and divide it by 5. 4 cookies. Then we want to take 3 cookies out of each bag to find out how many cookies she first put in. 1 cookie.
Let's check:
bag 1:
o (one cookie)
bag 2:
o (one cookie)
bag 3:
o (one cookie)
bag 4:
o (one cookie)
bag 5:
o (one cookie)
Now we have 15 cookies left. Now let's put 3 in each:
bag 1:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 2:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 3:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 4:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 5:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
Now we have no cookies left, and we put 4 cookies in each. (o representing the first cookie, v representing the next three cookies)
Answer:
P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66) = 0.046
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Population Mean, 
= 2.58 and Standard deviation, 
= 0.75
Also, a random sample (n) of 110 households is taken.
Let Xbar = sample mean household size
The z score probability distribution for sample mean is give by;
Z = 
~ N(0,1)
So, probability that the sample mean household size is between 2.50 and 2.66 people = P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66)
P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66) = P(Xbar < 2.66) - P(Xbar 
2.50)
P(Xbar < 2.66) = P( < 
) = P(Z < -1.68) = 1 - P(Z 1.68)
= 1 - 0.95352 = 0.04648
P(Xbar 2.50) = P( 
) = P(Z -3.92) = 1 - P(Z < 3.92)
= 1 - 0.99996 = 0.00004
Therefore, P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66) = 0.04648 - 0.00004 = 0.046
Breaking the it down- simplifying
Distribute 2/5 and 3/5 into the ():
2/5(a+b)+3/5(a+c)
2/5 a+ 2/5 b+3/5 a+ 3/5 c
combine the like terms:
2/5 a+3/5 a= 5/5 a --> 1a --> a
new simplified equation:
a+2/5 b+3/5 c
