Answer:
a.) 5(3t+2)+ 7(2t+5)
b.) 15t+10+14th+35
c.) $132
Step-by-step explanation:
a.) 5(3t+2)+ 7(2t+5)
b.) 15t+10+14th+35
Simplify to :
29t+45
c.) Substitute
29(3) +45
87+45=132
$132
The answer to your question should be b
We have 3 people: Paul, Daniel and Patricia. Let each name denote that person’s current age in years. Remember that % is the symbol for 1/100.
PAUL: (#A) Paul = Patricia – 2
DANIEL:
(#B) Daniel = 125% * Patricia = 125 * (1/100) * Patricia = 1.25 * Patricia
(#C) Ten years ago, Daniel’s age at that time would have been Daniel’s current age – 10. IE “Daniel – 10”.
Ten years ago, Patricia’s age at that time would have been Patricia’s current age – 10. IE “Patricia – 10”.
Ten years ago, Daniel’s age at that time (IE Daniel – 10) was 50% greater than Patricia’s age at the time (Patricia – 10).
IE
Daniel – 10 = 150% * (Patricia – 10)
Daniel – 10 = 1.50 * (Patricia – 10)
Daniel – 10 = 1.50 * Patricia – 1.50 * 10
Daniel – 10 = 1.50 * Patricia – 15
Daniel = 1.50 * Patricia – 15 + 10
Daniel = 1.50 * Patricia – 5
So now we have 3 equations in 3 unknowns:
(A) Paul = Patricia – 2
(B) Daniel = 1.25 * Patricia
(C) Daniel = 1.50 * Patricia – 5
Solve equations B & C simultaneously
1.25 * Patricia = 1.50 * Patricia – 5
1.25 * Patricia – 1.50 * Patricia = – 5
– 0.25 * Patricia = – 5
Patricia = (– 5) / (– 0.25)
Patricia = + 20
So now we can write the 3 people’s ages:
(a) Patricia = 20
(b) Paul = Patricia – 2 = 20 – 2 = 18
(c) Daniel = 1.25 * Patricia = 1.25 * 20 = 25

</span>
<span>Finally, we check our solution against the original question. </span>
Paul is two years younger than Patricia. ……… 20 – 2 = 18 ✔
Daniel is 25% older than Patricia. ……… 25 = 125% * 20 ✔
Ten years ago, Daniel was 50% older than Patricia. 25 – 10 = 150% (20– 10) ✔
Hope that helped :)
Find the mean ( average):
105 + 104 + 110 + 112 + 114 + 106 + 108 +109 = 868
Mean = 868 / 8 = 108.5
Standard deviation:
108.5 - 105 = 3.5, 3.5^2 = 12.25
108.5 - 104 = 4, 4^2 = 16
110 - 108.5 = 1.5, 1.5^2 = 2.25
112 - 108.5 = 3.5, 3.5^2 = 12.25
114 - 108.5 = 5.5, 5.5^2 = 30.25
108.5 - 106 = 2.5, 2.5^2 = 6.25
108.5 - 108 = 0.5, 0.5^2 = 0.25
109 - 108.5 = 0.5, 0.5^2 = 0.25
12.25 + 16 +2.25 + 12.25 + 30.25 +6.25+0.25+0.25 = 79.75
79.75/8 = 9.96875, SQRT(9.96875) = 3.1573
Standard Deviation = 3.1573
108.8 +/- 1.96 *(3.1573/sqrt(8) = 110.687 and 106.312
110.687 - 108.5 = 2.19
108.5 - 106.312 = 2.19
Margin of error = +/- 2.19
40x7=280
Your answer is $280
Hope this helped :D
