Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Silvia: 2 pages to 5 minutes

      into...

Silvia: 1 page to __ minutes

<u>Find Unit Rate</u> : 5/2= 2.5

Unit Rate for Silvia is  2.5

<u>Written out</u> : 2 pages x 2.5 = 5 minutes

<u>Example</u> : 1 page to 2.5  minutes

<u>What we found</u> : ___ pages to 60 minutes(60 divided by 2.5) is  

<h2>24 pages to 60 minutes</h2>

Silvia's sister: 3 pages to 6 minutes

     into...

Silvia's sister: 1 pages to ___ minutes

<u>Find Unit Rate</u> : 6/3= 2

Unit Rate for Silvia is  2

<u>Written out</u> : 3 pages x 2 = 6 minutes

<u>Example</u> : 1 page to 2  minute

<u>What we found</u> : ___ pages to 60 minutes(60 divide by 2) is

<h2>30 pages to 60 minutes  </h2>

<u>Final Step</u> : 30 - 24 = 6

A plumber's daily earnings have a mean of $145 per day with a standard deviation of $16.50.
avanturin [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

The plumber's daily earnings have a mean of $145 per day with a standard deviation of

$16.50.

We want to find the probability that the plumber earns between $135 and

$175 on a given day, if the daily earnings follow a normal distribution.

That is we want to find P(135 <X<175).

Let us convert to z-scores using

z =  \frac{x -  \mu}{ \sigma}

This means that:

P(135  \: <  \: X  \: <  \: 175) = P( \frac{135 - 145}{16.5}  \: <  \:  z \:  <  \frac{175 - 145}{ 16.5} )

We simplify to get:

P(135  \: <  \: X  \: <  \: 175) = P(  - 0.61\: <  \:  z \:  <  1.82 )

From the standard n normal distribution table,

P(z<1.82)=0.9656

P(z<-0.61)=0.2709

To find the area between the two z-scores, we subtract to obtain:

P(-0.61<z<1.82)=0.9656-0.2709=0.6947

This means that:

P(135  \: <  \: X  \: <  \: 175) =0.69

The correct choice is C.

A line with slope -2/3 passes through the point (-12,16) What is the X-intercept
Troyanec [42]

to find the x-intercept of a function, we simply set y = 0 and then solve for "x", so, let's first find the equation of it and then set y = 0.


\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-12}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{16})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies-\cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-16=-\cfrac{2}{3}[x-(-12)] \\\\\\ y-16=-\cfrac{2}{3}(x+12)\implies \stackrel{\stackrel{y}{\downarrow }}{0}-16=-\cfrac{2}{3}x-8\implies -8=-\cfrac{2x}{3} \\\\\\ -24=-2x\implies \cfrac{-24}{-2}=x\implies 12=x \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill (12,0) ~\hfill

Solve this equation for x: x^2+11x+28=0
lord [1]

Answer: x = -7 or x = -4

Step-by-step explanation: When an equation has a squared term in it

such as x² + 11x + 28 = 0, it's called a polynomial equation.

The rule for solving a polynomial equation

is to first set it equal to zero, then factor.

Since this equation is already set equal to zero,

our first step is to factor the left side of the equation.

To factor x² + 11x + 28, we need the factors

of 28 that add to 11 which are 7 and 4.

So we have (x + 7)(x + 4) = 0.

Whenever two terms are multiplied together to equal zero,

this means that either one or the other must equal zero.

So if (x + 7)(x + 4) = 0, then either x + 7 = 0 or x + 4 = 0.

Solving each equation from here, we get x = -7 or x = -4.

So our solution is {-7, -4}.
