As the sum of marks of others remain unchanged , let their sum be x . As the mean using 83 was 40 , we have ,
(x +83)/100 = 40
x + 83 = 4000
x = 3917
Now mean using 53 ,
(x +53)/100
(3917+53)/100
39.7.
Hope it helps , plz mark as brainiest :-)
Answer:
Approximately 68% of the apples have diameters that are between 7.08cm and 7.78cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean of 7.43cm, standard deviation of 0.35cm.
What percentage of the apples have diameters that are between 7.08cm and 7.78cm?
7.43 - 0.35 = 7.08 cm.
7.43 + 0.35 = 7.778 cm.
Within 1 standard deviation of the mean, so approximately 68% of the apples have diameters that are between 7.08cm and 7.78cm.
Let:
x = Pounds of walnuts in the mix.
Each pound of walnuts costs $0.80. thus x pounds of walnuts cost 0.8x dollars.
Each pound of cashews costs $1.25 and the mix will contain 8 pounds of cashews, so the cost is 8*$1.25 = $10
The total cost of the mix is, therefore: 0.8x + 10 dollars.
We are also given the pound of mix costs $1.00 and we have a total of 8 + x pounds, so the total cost of the mix is 1*(8 + x) dollars.
Equating both costs:
0.8x + 10 = 1*(8 + x)
Operating:
0.8x + 10 = 8 + x
Subtracting x and 10:
0.8x - x = 8 - 10
Simplifying:
-0.2x = -2
Dividing by -0.2:
x = -2/(-0.2)
x = 10
Answer: 10 pounds
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression x^3 - x^2 - 17x -15) ÷ (x-5) shows that x+5 is one of the factor if the polynomial function. According to factor theorem, we will equate the factor to zero and find x;
x+5 = 0
x = -5
Next is to generate the remainder.
Substitute x = -5 into the polynomial function
P(x) = x^3 - x^2 - 17x -15
P(-5) = (-5)^3 - (-5)^2 - 17(-5) -15
P(-5) = -125-25+85-15
P(-5) = -150+70
P(-5) = -80
Hence the remainder is -80
