Answer:

4 1/8 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Total bag of chocolate chips Mary has = 16 1/2 ounces

She will only use 1/4 of the bag for decorating a cake.

How many ounces will she use for decorating

Ounces used in decoration = 1/4 of 16 1/2

= 1/4 × 33/2

= (1*33)/(4*2)

= 33/8

= 4 1/8 ounces of chocolate chips

She will use 4 1/8 ounces of chocolate chips for decorating a cake

Setler79 [48]

The average speed would be 53 miles per hour, hope this helped, if you need me to explain then here is the way, so all you do is divide 265 by 5 and what I did to help make it faster was split 265 into 250 and 15 so 250 divided by 5 is 50 and 15 divided by 5 is 3 so 50 + 3 = 53!

Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean mu equals 50 and standard deviation sigma equals 7. Compute the p

drek231 [11]

Answer:

The probability that <em>X</em> is less than 42 is 0.1271.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X </em>follows a Normal distribution.

The mean and standard deviation are:

E (X) = <em>μ</em> = 50.

SD (X) = <em>σ</em> = 7.

A normal distribution is continuous probability distribution.

The Normal probability distribution with mean µ and standard deviation σ is given by,

$f_{X}(\mu, \sigma)=\frac{1}{\sigma\sqrt{2\pi}}e^{-(x-\mu)^{2}/2\sigma^{2}};\ -\infty$

To compute the probability of a Normal random variable we first standardize the raw score.

The raw scores are standardized using the formula:

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

These standardized scores are known as <em>z</em>-scores and they follow normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1.

Compute the probability of (X < 42) as follows:

$P(X$

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that <em>X</em> is less than 42 is 0.1271.

The normal curve is shown below.

I NEED HELP PLEASE HELP ME

Aloiza [94]

Answer:
294.14cm^2

Explanation:

First find the area of the whole piece of paper:
32*14=448

Then find the area of the two semicircles, semicircle + semicircle = 1 circle:

Area of a circle= (radius squared)(pi):
(7^2)(3.14) = 153.86

Subtract the area of the two semicircles from the whole paper area:
448-153.86 = 294.14

I hope this isn’t too confusing :)

100 POINTS HELP ASAP Linear Combination

notka56 [123]

Answer:

1) $x=\dfrac12$

2) $n = -3 \ \ \textsf{and} \ \ m = -4$

3) see below

4) A: 0 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question 1</u>

$15-0.5(4x-2)+4x=17$

$\implies 15-2x+1+4x=17$

$\implies 2x+16=17$

$\implies 2x=1$

$\implies x=\dfrac12$

<u>Question 2</u>

$\textsf{rearrange} \ n=m+1 :$

$\implies -m=-n+1$

$\textsf{add equations} \ -m=-n+1 \ \textsf{and} \ m=2n+2:\\$

$\implies0=n+3$

$\implies n=-3$

$\textsf{substitute} \ \ n=-3 \ \ \textsf{into} \ \ m=n-1:$

$\implies m=-3-1$

$\implies m=-4$

<u>Question 3</u>

subtract the second equation from the first

divide both sides by -4

substitute found value for y into first equation

solve for x

<u>Question 4</u>

$3j=k$

$k=3j+1$

$\textsf{rearrange} \ 3j=k :$

$\implies -k=-3j$

$\textsf{add equations}\ -k=-3j \ \ \textsf{and}\ \ k=3j+1:$

$\implies 0=1$

Solution = A

Answer:

The percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370 is:

= 16%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of consignor check, μ = $480

Standard deviation, σ = $110

Value of check received, x > $370

Solution: find the z-score to determine the percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370:

z = (x-μ)/σ

z= ($370 - $480)/$110

z = -$110/$110

z = -1.00

Percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370

= 0.15866

= 0.16

= 16%
