A. 8 pizza pies at 10 pc. per pie = 80 available pieces
B. Let X be the number of children. Number of pieces eaten = 5 per child = 5X.
c. 22 pieces are left over.
D. Combine line A and line C. Total number of pieces eaten = 80 original minus 22 left over. Result 58 pieces were eaten by X children: 58 = 5X.
E. Solve the equation 58 = 5X by dividing both sides by 5.
WHOOPS! Is this a trick question? Solving the above results in the answer that there are 11.6 children at the party. Hmmm. That 0.6 child is a question mark for me.
Looks like someone miscounted the pizza slices. Or omitted some pertinent information. But, I’m sure there is a logical answer.
Given:
mean, μ = 11 lb
Std. deviation, σ = 2.1
Let x = the weight that separates the top 5% of the crop.
The z-score is
z = (x - μ)/σ
= (x - 11)/2.1
From standard z-table for normal distribution,
P(z=1.645) = 0.95
Therefore
(x - 11)/2.1 = 1.645
x - 11 = 1.645/2.1 = 0.7833
x = 11.783
Answer: 11.8 lb (nearest tenth)
Answer:
x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Area= x^2+4x-5
Width= x+5
Area= Length*breadth
x^2+4x-5=length*x+5
Length=x^2+4x-5/x+5
Therefore, length= x-1
Answer:
33 ⅓%
Step-by-step explanation:
Percent means out of 100, so write a proportion:
1 / 3 = x / 100
Solve for x by multiplying both sides by 100:
x = 100 / 3
Reduce:
x = 33 ⅓
The percent of questions he got right is 33 ⅓%.
