In standard normal distribution, the cutoff for the 95th percentile is about z\approx1.64. So the cutoff height would be x such that

\dfrac{x-180}7=1.64\implies x\approx191.48

cm.

A company produces fruity drinks that contain a percentage of real fruit juice. Drink A contains 20% real fruit juice and Drink
Setler [38]

Answer:

There needs to be 300 liters of Drink A and 270 liters of Drink B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = the amount of Drink A and b = the amount of Drink B

Multiplying a number by 0.2 is the same as calculating 20% of it and same goes with 15% and 0.15. This makes our equation for the amount of fruit juice:

0.2a + 0.15b = 100.5

We know what the difference between a and b will be 30 liters so:

a - b = 30

Now we have our system of equations

To cancel out a, we can multiply the first equation by -5 so we will now have:

-a - 0.75b = -502.5

a - b = 30

Adding these two equations together, we get:

-1.75b = -472.5

Both sides are negative, so we can take the negative signs away.

1.75b = 472.5

Now divide both sides by 1.75

b = 270

Plugging 270 into b, we have:

a - b = 30

a - 270 = 30

Add 270 to both sides

a = 300

There needs to be 300 liters of Drink A and 270 liters of Drink B

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

4.8(x)+1.2(y)=2.4

9.6 + 1.2y = 2.4

subtract 9.6 from both sides

1.2y = - 7.2

divide by 1.2 on both sides

y = -6
