Answer:

47378.31625 Liters

Step-by-step explanation:

A fountain holds 12500 7/8 gallons of water. Joe wants to calculate how many liters that is. Which proportion could he use to solve for the number of liters? (1 gal = 3.79 L)

From the above question,

1 gallon = 3.79 Liters

12500 7/8 gallons = x Liters

Cross Multiply

x Liters = 12500 7/8 × 3.79 Liters

x = 47378.31625 Liters

Therefore, the number of liters of water in the fountain is 47378.31625 Liters

Teacher's salaries in Georgia are normally distributed with an average salary of $52,000 with a standard deviation of $12,000. W
suter [353]

Answer:

81.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following information:

mean = m = 52000

standard deviation = sd = 12000

a = 40000

b = 76000

we need to find the probability between a and b, that is:

P (a <x <b) = P (40,000 <x <76000)

P [(40000 - m) / sd <(x - m) / sd <(76000 - m) / sd]

replacing

P [(40000 - 52000) / 12000 <z <(76000 - 52000) / 12000]

P (-1 <z <2)

P (z <= -1) - P (z <= 2)

We look for this value of z, in the attached table:

0.9772 - 0.1587

P = 0.8185

In other words, the probability is 81.85%

93 is the sum of a number g and 58
Wewaii [24]
Assuming you are hoping to obtain the value of "g", to solve worded algebra problems like these, it is easier to translate the world problem into a mathematical equation first.

In this case, "93 is the sum of a number g and 58" can be translated to:

93 = g + 58

To find the value of g, it is necessary to isolate g first. To do this, we subtract both sides of the equation by 58:

93 - 58 = g + 58 - 58
93 - 58 = g

Simplifying:
g = 35

Angles A and B are congruent. Find the value of x. Show all work to receive credit.
kolezko [41]

Answer:

  x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Sides opposite congruent angles are congruent:

  x + 10 = 2x - 5

  15 = x . . . . . . . . . add 5-x

The value of x is 15.

_____

I suppose you could show the intermediate step:

  x +10 +(5 -x) = 2x -5 +(5 -x)

  15 = x . . . . . simplified

Which shows the equation of the line containing the points (-2, 6) and having a slope of 3 in intercept-form?
puteri [66]
We know that the slope-intercept form of an equation is represented by:

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope, b is the y-intercept, and x and y pertain to points on the line in the graph.

So the slope of the line is know to be 3, and we are able to plug that into the equation:

y = 3x + b

We also know that the point (-2, 6) is on the line. With this information, we can then plug in the point into the equation to find b:

6 = 3(-2) + b

Then we can solve for b:

6 = -6 + b

b = 12

Knowing that b is 12, we can then rewrite the equation in a more general slope-intercept form that is applicable to any point on that line:

y = 3x + 12

Thus, your answer would be C.
