Let x be the amount of nickels and y be the amount of quarters in a jar. Totally there are 87 coins, then x+y=87.
Since nickel is 5 cent coin and quarter is 25 cent coin, then 5x+25y=1255 ($12.55=1255 cents). Solve this system:x=87-y and 5(87-y)+25y=1255.
435-5y+25y=1255,
25y-5y=1255-435,
20y=820,
y=820÷20,
y=41,
x=87-41=46.
Answer: 46 nickels and 41 quarters.
Your answer is 0.8 or 80%
Explanation:
Consider the ratio written like a fraction:
<span><span>Count of sandwichescount of people</span>→<span>46</span></span>
But we need the count of sandwiches for 1 person. So we need to change the 6 people into 1 person. To change 6 into 1 divide it by 6
<span>6÷6=1</span>
For ratios, when multiplying or dividing, what we do to the bottomwe do to the top.
So to change <span>46</span> into what we want we apply
<span><span><span>4÷6</span><span>6÷6</span></span>=<span><span>23</span>1</span>← <span>Count of sandwichescount of people</span></span>
So each person ends up with <span>23</span> of a sandwich
<span>Now see where the shortcut comes from <span>46</span>=<span>23</span><span> of a sandwich</span></span>
Answer:
We are required to find the proportion of observations from a normal distribution that are greater than 1.36. Mathematically, it can be written as:
To find this proportion, we can use the standard normal table. Using the standard normal table, we have:
Therefore, the proportion of observations from a standard normal distribution that take values greater than 1.36 is 0.0869.
