Gracie, Mary, and Nancy each have a small collection of seashells. Gracie has 5 more than times the number of shells Mary has. N
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

3/2 x +1 = 5/4x - 5

3/2 x+1 =5/4

x−5

Step 1: Subtract 5/4x from both sides.

3/2 x+1−5/4

x=5

4x−5−5/4x

1/4x+1=−5

Step 2: Subtract 1 from both sides.

1/4x+1−1=−5−1

1/4

x=−6

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 4.

4*(1/4x)=(4)*(−6)

x=−24 Mary has 24 shells

Answer:

-x=−24

x = 24 shells

Step-by-step explanation:

1.   2 3/4 x 16 = 44 + 6 = 50 shells   x= 16    

2 3/4 x 24 = 66 + 6 = 72 x = 24

We see the side workings in bold as if Mary has 24 and Nancy has 1x more

Then Nancy 24+24 = 48 where Gracie 5 x 24 = 120 and we have 72-48 = 24 and 120-72 = 48 being the same as Nancy. You can ignore or check the rest in explanation.

                           2 3/4 x 18 = 49 1/2 + 6 = 55 1/2  x= 18

2.  2 3/4 x 16 = 44 -4 = 40 shells  x = 16  2 3/4 x 24 = 66 - 4 = 62   x = 24

                            2 3/4 x 18 = 49 1/2 - 4 = 45 1/2   x = 18

3.   2  3/4 x 16 = 44 + 4 = 48 shells x = 16  2 3/4 x 24 = 66 + 4 = 70  x = 24                

2 3/4 x 18 = 49 1/2 + 4 =53 1/2  x = 18

Each day, Robin commutes to work by bike with probability 0.4 and by walking with probability 0.6. When biking to work injuries
kvasek [131]

Answer:

64.65% probability of at least one injury commuting to work in the next 20 years

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}&#10;

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

\mu is the mean in the given interval.

Each day:

Bikes to work with probability 0.4.

If he bikes to work, 0.1 injuries per year.

Walks to work with probability 0.6.

If he walks to work, 0.02 injuries per year.

20 years.

So

\mu = 20*(0.4*0.1 + 0.6*0.02) = 1.04

Either he suffers no injuries, or he suffer at least one injury. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

P(X = 0) + P(X \geq 1) = 1

We want P(X \geq 1). Then

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)

In which

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}&#10;

P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1.04}*1.04^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.3535&#10;

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.3535 = 0.6465

64.65% probability of at least one injury commuting to work in the next 20 years
