Answer:

<em>a:b:c=8:12:15</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Combined Ratio</u>

We are given the ratios:

a:b=2:3

b:c=4:5

The combined ratio a:b:c will include all three variables in one single expression.

Before finding it, we must have a common number for the common variable (b). Since b is 3 in the first ratio and 4 in the second ratio, we must equate both by finding the LCM of 3 and 4=12, thus both ratios will be amplified as follows:

a:b=2:3=(2*4):(3*4)=8:12

b:c=4:5=(4*3):(5*3)=12:15

Now there is a common factor in both ratios, we can combine them removing the common factor:

a:b:c=8:12:15

Race times at the local monthly 5k run are normally distributed, with a mean time of 32 minutes and a standard deviation of 4 mi
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

68%

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is 32 minutes, and the standard deviation is 4 minutes.

28 is 1 standard deviation below the mean, and 36 is 1 standard deviation above the mean.

According to the empirical rule, 68% of a normal distribution is between -1 and 1 standard deviations.  95% is between -2 and 2 standard deviations.  99.5% is between -3 and 3 standard deviations.

So the answer is 68%.

Which is the equation of the parabola?
mestny [16]

Answer:

  • y = -1/20(x + 3)²

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Consider the parent function:</u>

  • y = x²

The graph of the function open up and the vertex is at the origin, the point (0, 0)

Now, if it opens down, it means it is a reflection of the parent function over x axis, hence it has a negative coefficient, the function becomes:

  • y = -x²

The vertex is shifted to the point (-3, 0). It means the function also translated left by 3 units, the function becomes:

  • y = -(x + 3)²

<u>Since all the options have 1/20 as a coefficient, our function is:</u>

  • y = -1/20(x + 3)²

This is option B
