Answer:

Jumper, y = 172

Shirt, x = - 105

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Shirt = x

Jumper = y

5x + 4y = 163 - - (1)

3x + 2y = 29 - - - (2)

Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by 5

15x + 12y = 489 - - - (3)

15x + 10y = 145 - - - (4)

Subtract :

12y - 10y = 489 - 145

2y = 344

y = 344 / 2

y = 172

Put y = 172 in (3)

15x + 12(172) = 489

15x + 2064 = 489

15x = 489 - 2064

15x = - 1575

x = - 105

The values ;

Jumper, y = 172

Shirt, x = - 105

We weren't supposed to obtain a negative value, kindly check if the parameters given are correct.

A firm has net working capital of $2,300 and current assets of $3,500. what is the current ratio?

Ulleksa [173]

Based on the net working capital and the current assets, the current ratio of the firm is 2.92

<h3>What is the firm's current ratio?</h3>

First, find the current liabilities:

= Current assets - Net working capital

= 3,500 - 2,300

= $1,200

The current ratio is:

= Current assets / Current liabilties

= 3,500 / 1,200

= 2.92

Julia makes friendship bracelets. She was recently given nine bracelets from different people. At Christmas, she plans to give a

sergey [27]

Answer:

The number of bracelets with she start are 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Julia was recently given 9 bracelets. She plans to give 1/3 of her bracelets. She will be left with 23.

Now, we need to find with how many did she start.

Let the bracelets with she start be $x$ .

She plans to give $\frac{1}{3}ofx$ = $\frac{x}{3}$ .

According to question:

$x-9-\frac{x}{3}=23$

On solving the equation:

$\frac{3x-27-x}{3} =23$

<em>Multiplying both sides by 3 we get:</em>

$3x-27-x=69$

$2x-27=69$

<em>Adding both sides by 27 and then dividing by 2 we get:</em>

$x=48$

Therefore, the number of bracelets with she start are 48.

The scheduled arrival time for a daily flight from Boston to New York is 9:35 am. Historical data show that the arrival time fol

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The mean is 11.5 minutes and the standard deviation is of 6.64 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The mean is:

$M = \frac{a+b}{2}$

The standard deviation is:

$S = \sqrt{\frac{(b-a)^{2}}{12}}$

Arrival time of 9:18 am and a late arrival time of 9:41 am.

9:41 is 23 minutes from 9:18. So the time is uniformily distributed between 0 and 23 minutes, so a = 0, b = 23.

Mean:

$M = \frac{a+b}{2} = \frac{0+23}{2} = 11.5$

Standard deviation:

$S = \sqrt{\frac{(b-a)^{2}}{12}} = \sqrt{\frac{(23 - 0)^{2}}{12}} = 6.64$

The mean is 11.5 minutes and the standard deviation is of 6.64 minutes
