Answer:

  • 25 members

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial number of members:  x

Sum of money:  K£ 100

Each had to pay:  100/x

<u>Five members less, each paid K£1 more, we get equation:</u>

  • 100/x + 1 = 100/(x - 5)

<u>Multiply all terms by x(x - 5) and solve the quadratic equation:</u>

  • 100(x - 5) + x(x - 5) = 100x
  • 100x - 500 + x² - 5x - 100x = 0
  • x² - 5x - 500 = 0
  • x = (5 + √(5² + 4*500))/2
  • x = (5 + √2025)/2
  • x = (5 + 45)/2
  • x = 25

The second root is ignored as negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

x= how many members are in the group

x= 100/x

x= 100/(x-5)

x(x-5)=100

x^2-5x=100

x^2-5x-100=0

and then use the quadratic formula (i can't type it srry)

The time it takes a customer service complaint to be settled at a small department store is normally distributed with a mean of
noname [10]

Answer:

0.0475 = 4.75% probability that a randomly selected complaint takes more than 15 minutes to be settled.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 10 minutes and a standard deviation of 3 minutes

This means that \mu = 10, \sigma = 3

Find the probability that a randomly selected complaint takes more than 15 minutes to be settled.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 15, so:

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

Z = \frac{15 - 10}{3}

Z = 1.67

Z = 1.67 has a p-value of 0.9525.

1 - 0.9525 = 0.0475.

0.0475 = 4.75% probability that a randomly selected complaint takes more than 15 minutes to be settled.

Researchers at Mississippi State University were studying the impact of different environmental sounds on ecosystems. For their
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The experiment design used in this case is the between-subjected design.

Step-by-step explanation:

Between-subject design is a sort of experimental design where the individuals of an experiment are allocated to varied situations, with each individual being treated with only one of the experimental conditions.

In this case three similar ecosystems are designed containing a variety of insects and plants. Then each ecosystem to be exposed to rock music, country music, or a conventional city soundscape for two consecutive weeks.

Then after two weeks period they measured how successful the species were in each ecosystem.

The experiment design used in this case is the between-subjected design.

F(x) = 2x – 1 g(x) = 7x – 12 What is h(x) = f(x) + g(x)?
Liula [17]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

A.

h(x)=9x-13

<h2>Why?</h2>

To solve the problem, we need to perform the shown operation.

We have the functions:

f(x)=2x-1\\g(x)=7x-12

So, performing the following operation, we have:

f(x)+g(x)=h(x)

h(x)=f(x)+g(x)=(2x-1)+(7x-12)=7x+2x-1-12=9x-13

h(x)=9x-13

Hence, we have that the correct option is:

A. h(x)=9x-13

Have a nice day!
