The two friends will both have 3.5 cookies.
The answers are x=4 and y=323/2
1) 40/2x-3=8
Multiply both sides by 2x-3 to get rid of fraction
40= 8(2x-3)
Distribute 8
40= 16x-24
Add 24 to both sides
64=16x
Divide by 16
4=x
2) 2y-3/40=8
Multiply both sides by 40 to red rod of fraction
2y-3=320
Add 3 to both sides
2y= 323
Divide by 2
Y=323/2
Now just describe the differences in solving them
FYI / means fraction, right after the slash is bottom of fraction
Answer:
6.5×10'3=6,500.
5.5×10'5=550,000
1.1×10'3=1,100
so as u can see the second number is greater
by 548,900
Answer:
Data set B would have flatter distribution with more data in each tail.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Data set A has a smaller standard deviation than data set B.

Standard Deviation:
- It is a measure of dispersion of data.
- It tells us about how much the data deviates around the mean.
- It tells us about the overall deviation of the data from the mean.
- The standard deviation is small when the data are all close to the mean showing less variation.
- The standard deviation is larger when the data values are farther away from the mean, showing more variation.
Since data A has less standard deviation than data B, then data B has a flatter graphical representation as more of the data are present on the tails.
