Answer:

<h3><u>Required Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

The ratio of boys and girls =3:5

Let

Number of boys=3x

Number of girls =5x

  • According to the question Numbers of girls=130

{:}\longrightarrow\sf 5x=130

  • Now interchange both sides and get x

{:}\longrightarrow\sf x={\dfrac {130}{5}}

{:}\longrightarrow\sf x=26

<h3>Now </h3>

The number of boys=3x

=3×26=78

\thereforeNumber of boys is 78.

3(c+5)=12. Distributive property
avanturin [10]

Answer:

c = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

3(c+5)=12

3 × c = 3c

3 × 5 = 15

3c + 15 = 12

<u>      - 15   -15</u>

   3c = -3

c = -3 ÷ 3 = -1

Check:

3(-1+5)=12

-3 + 15 = 12

The solution to given system of equations is (x, y) = (2, -1)

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given system of equations are:

-1x + 2y = -4  -------- eqn 1

4x + 3y = 5 ------- eqn 2

We can solve the above system of equations by elimination method

<em><u>Multiply eqn 1 by 4</u></em>

4(-1x + 2y = -4)

-4x + 8y = -16  ------ eqn 3

<em><u>Add eqn 2 and eqn 3</u></em>

4x + 3y = 5

-4x + 8y = -16

( + ) --------------------

0x + 11y = -16 + 5

11y = -11

y = -1

<em><u>Substitute y = -1 in eqn 1</u></em>

-1x + 2(-1) = -4

-x -2 = -4

-x = -4 + 2

-x = -2

x = 2

<em><u>Check the answer:</u></em>

Substitute x = 2 and y = -1 in eqn 2

4x + 3y = 5

4(2) + 3(-1) = 5

8 - 3 = 5

5 = 5

Thus the obtained answer is correct

Thus the solution to given system of equations is (x, y) = (2, -1)

A data scientist studying a manufacturing process classifies each item produced by the process as either Poor, Acceptable, or Ex
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

0.214 ; 0.064 ; 0.3859 ; 0.9966 ; 0.135

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the distribution :

Poor ___ Acceptable ____ Excellent

0.25 _____ 0.6 _________ 0.15

The data scientist receives three items produced by the manufacturing process.

Find the chance that:

a. all of items are Acceptable

0.6 * 0.6 * 0.6 = 0.6^3 = 0.214

b. none of the items is Acceptable

P(not acceptable) = 1 - p(acceptable) = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

0.4 * 0.4 * 0.4 = 0.4^3 = 0.064

c. at least one of the items is Excellent

P(atleast one) = 1 - P(none)

P(not excellent) = 1 - 0.15 = 0.85

P(none is excellent) = 0.85^3 = 0.614125

Hence,

P(atleast one is excellent) = 1 - 0.614125 = 0.3859

d. not all of the items are Excellent

P(not all) = 1 - p(All)

P(all excellent) = 0.15^3 = 0.003375

P(not all are excellent) = 1 - 0.003375 = 0.9966

e. there is one item of each class:

P(poor) * p(acceptable) * p(excellent) * (number of classes)!

0.25 * 0.6 * 0.15 * 3!

= 0.135

Two angles of a triangle have a sum of 110. the sum of all three angles is 180 .what is the measure of the third angle
defon
Well by the looks of it The missing angle is 70 degrees. I say this because 110 + 70 = 180. If you were asking what were the two angles just divide.
