Answer:

  12 quarters

  20 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

If all were dimes the value would be $3.20. It is $1.80 more than that. Each replacement of a dime with a quarter adds $0.15 to the value, so there must be $1.80/$0.15 = 12 such replacements.

There are 12 quarters and 20 dimes.

_____

Let q represent the number of quarters.

  0.25q +0.10(32 -q) = 5.00 . . . . . total value

  0.15q +3.20 = 5.00 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  q = (5.00 -3.20)/0.15 . . . . . . subtract 3.20 and divide by 0.15

  q = 12

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

a) 47.55

b) 58

c) 47.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the size of the orders is uniformly distributed over the interval

$25 ( a ) to $80 ( b )

<u>a) Determine the value for the first order size generated based on 0.41</u>

parameter for normal distribution is given as ;  a = 25,  b = 80

size/value of order  = a + random number ( b - a )

                                = 25 + 0.41 ( 80 - 25 )

                                =  47.55

<u>b) Value of the last order generated based on random number (0.6)</u>

= a + random number ( b - a )

= 25 + 0.6 ( 80 - 25 )

= 25 + 33 = 58

<u>c) Average order size </u>

= ∑ order 1 + order 2 + ----- + order 10  ) / 10

= (47.55 + ...... + 58 ) / 10

= 478.8 / 10 = 47.88
