Answer:

Well a number is (x) {unknown}

Its 17 more

So x+17=85

Now solve

subtract 17 on both sides

x=68

So the number is 68

17 more than a number is 85.
in order to find out the number you need to subtract 17 from 85.
so 85 - 17 = 68

the answer is 68

Last year, Lien earned $1,600 more than her husband. Together they earned $51,000. How much did each of them earn?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Lien: $26300 Her husband: $24700

Step-by-step explanation:

x+(x+1600)=51000

2x+1600=51000

2x=49400

x=24700

Her husband earned 24700

24700+1600=26300

Lien earned 26300

Emery bought 3 cans of beans that had a total weight of 2.4 pounds. If each can of beans weighed the same amount, which model co
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

  • y=0.8x
  • A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled number of cans with entries 5, 15, 20. Column 2 is labeled total weight (in pounds) with entries 4, 12, 16.
  • On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled number of cans and the y-axis is labeled total weight (in pounds. A line goes through points (5, 4) and (15, 12).

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Statement 1</u>

If 3 cans of beans weigh 2.4 pounds

Then 1 Can will weigh (2.4 ÷ 3)=0.8 Pounds

If y is the total weight of x number of cans, then: y=0.8x

<u>Statement 2</u>

If x=5, then y=0.8(5)=4

If x=15, then y=0.8(15)=12

If x=20, then y=0.8(20)=16

Therefore the below statement applies:

A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled number of cans with entries 5, 15, 20. Column 2 is labeled total weight (in pounds) with entries 4, 12, 16.

<u>Statement 3</u>

From the pair of points above, we have (5,4) and (15,12). Therefore if on a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled number of cans and the y-axis is labeled total weight (in pounds.) A line goes through points (5, 4) and (15, 12).

Find the area of an octagon whose perimeter is 120 cm.
stira [4]

Answer:

The area of an octagon whose perimeter is 120 cm is 1086.4 cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

An octagon is a polygon with eight sides. If the lengths of all the sides and the measurement of all the angles are equal, the octagon is called a regular octagon.

There is a predefined set of formulas for the calculation of perimeter, and area of a regular octagon.

The perimeter of an Octagon is given by

P=8a

and the area of an Octagon is given by

A=2a^{2}(1+\sqrt{2})

We know that the perimeter is 120 cm, solving for side length (a) in the perimeter formula we get

120=8a\\\frac{8a}{8}=\frac{120}{8}\\a=15

Now, we calculate the area

A=2a^{2}(1+\sqrt{2})\\A=2(15)^{2}(1+\sqrt{2})\\A=450\left(1+\sqrt{2}\right)\\A\approx 1086.4 \:cm^{2}

Grasshoppers are distributed at random in a large field according to a Poisson process with parameter a 5 2 per square yard. How
HACTEHA [7]

In this question, the Poisson distribution is used.

Poisson distribution:

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)!}

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

\mu is the mean in the given interval.

Parameter of 5.2 per square yard:

This means that \mu = 5.2r, in which r is the radius.

How large should the radius R of a circular sampling region be taken so that the probability of finding at least one in the region equals 0.99?

We want:

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 0.99

Thus:

P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01

We have that:

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

P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-5.2r}*(5.2r)^{0}}{(0)!} = e^{-5.2r}

Then

e^{-5.2r} = 0.01

\ln{e^{-5.2r}} = \ln{0.01}

-5.2r = \ln{0.01}

r = -\frac{\ln{0.01}}{5.2}

r = 0.89

Thus, the radius should be of at least 0.89.
