Answer:

S = £1.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the small, medium and large cakes be S, M and L respectively.

Given the following data;

Total profits = £532.48

Total number of cake = 192 cakes

Ratio of S:M:L = 7:6:11

Sum of ratio = 7+6+11 = 24

To find number of each cakes, we would divide the total number of cakes by the sum of ratio;

Number of each cakes = 192/24

Number of each cakes = 8

Next, we determine the exact number of each type of cakes.

Small = 7*8 = 56 cakes.

Medium = 6*8 = 48 cakes.

Large = 11*8 = 88 cakes.

For the profits;

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

M = 2S

L = 3S

56S + 48*(2S) + 88*(3S) = £532.48

56S + 96S + 264S = 532.48

416S = 532.48

S = 532.48/416

S = £1.28

Therefore, the profit for one small cake is £1.28

the total attendance at a concert in a theater hall was 1500, of this total 400 were children,850 were women , and the remaining

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Below!

Step-by step explanation:

We know that:

400 + 850 + m = 1500

Solution of Question A:

Percent of children: Total children/Total attendance

=> 400/1500
=> 4/15
=> 0.27 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
=> 0.27 x 100
=> 27%

Hence, the percent of children is about 27%.

Solution of Question B:

Percent of women: Total women/Total attendance

=> 850/1500
=> 85/150
=> 17/30
=> 17/30 x 100
=> 17/3 x 10
=> 170/3
=> 56.67%

Hence, the percent of women is 56.67%.

Solution of Question C:

400 + 850 + m = 1500
=> 1250 + m = 1500
=> m = 1500 - 1250
=> m = 250

Percent of men: Total men/Total attendance

=> 250/1500
=> 1/6
=> 0.17 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
=> 0.17 x 100
=> 17%

Hence, the percent of men is about 17%

The average maximum monthly temperature in Campinas, Brazil is 29.9 degrees Celsius. The standard deviation in maximum monthly t

velikii [3]

Answer:

3.84% of months would have a maximum temperature of 34 degrees or higher

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 29.9, \sigma = 2.31$
