What is the answer to 4+2(x-3)=-8

2. A restaurant employs five people. The two cooks work 36 hours

Cloud [144]

Answer:

Total amount = R5112

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cooks be C.

Let the waiters be W.

Given the following data;

Number of cooks, C = 2

Number of waiters, W = 3

a. To find the amount earned by each cook;

C = 36 * R36 = R1296

b. To find the amount earned by each waiter;

W = 30 * R28 = R840

c. To find the total amount earned by the employees;

Total amount = 2C + 3W

Total amount = 2(1296) + 3(840)

Total amount = 2592 + 2520

Total amount = R5112

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. The seat was designed for pilots weighing between 130 lb and

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

a) $P(140$

$P(0.036$

b) $P(140< \bar X$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(139,28.1)$

Where $\mu=139$ and $\sigma=28.1$

We are interested on this probability

$P(140$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(140$

And we can find this probability like this:

$P(0.036$

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.

$P(0.036$

Part b

For this case we select a sample size of n =32. Since the distribution for X is normal then the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu=139, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{28.1}{\sqrt{32}}=4.97)$

And the new z score would be:

$Z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\sigma_{\bar x}}$

$P(140< \bar X$

-20y + 15 = 2 - 16y + 11

shtirl [24]

In order to answer this, we will first need to combine like terms on each side. on the left, you can leave them alone. however on the right, we will need to combine 2 and 11. this is 13. the right side becomes 13-16y. after that, we can add 20y to both sides. that equals 15=13+4y now we can subtract 13 from both sides. 2=4y. then we divide by 4 on both sides to find y. y=.5

Is the following statement correct? Explain.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: The answer is NO.

Step-by-step explanation: The given statement is -

If the graph of two equations are coincident lines, then that system of equations will have no solution.

We are to check whether the above statement is correct or not.

Any two equations having graphs as coincident lines are of the form -

$ax+by=c,\\\\dax+dby=dc,\\\\\textup{where}~~d\neq 1.$

If we take d = 1, then both the equations will be same.

Now, subtracting the second equation from first, we have

$a(1-d)x+b(1-d)y=c(1-d)\\\\\Rightarrow ax+by=c,~\textup{since}~d\neq 1,~\textup{so}~1-d\neq 0.$

Again, we will get the first equation, which is linear in two unknown variables. So, the system will have infinite number of solutions, which consists of the points lying on the line.

For example, see the attached figure, the graphs of following two equations is drawn and they are coincident. Also, the result is again the same straight line which has infinite number of points on it. These points makes the solution for the following system.

$2x+5y=10,\\\\6x+15y=30.$

Thus, the given statement is not correct.
