Answer:

-20/3 & -40/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s say that the 1st number is X and the 2nd number is Y.

Given that x:y = 1:2 => x/y = 1/2 => 2x = y

and a-5/y+4 = 5/4 (The first number is decreased by 5 and the second number is increased by 4.)

=> 4(x - 5) = 5 (y + 4)

=> 4x - 20 = 5y + 20

=> 4x - 5y = 40

As, 2x = y , 4x = 2y

=> 2y - 5y = 40

=> -3y = 40

=> y = -40/3 ; x = y/2 = -20/3

This might be confusing but I hope this helps :)

The head of the Westlane Cultural Center wants to get a sense of how quickly pledges from donors arrive at the center. It takes
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

95.64% probability that pledges are received within 40 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 28, \sigma = 7

What is the probability that pledges are received within 40 days

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 40. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{40 - 28}{7}

Z = 1.71

Z = 1.71 has a pvalue of 0.9564

95.64% probability that pledges are received within 40 days

aliina [53]

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{3 } \times  \frac{30}{1}  = 10 \\  \\  \frac{10}{1}  \times  \frac{5}{6}  = 8.33 \\  \\  \frac{833}{100}  \times  \frac{6}{10}  = 4.998 \\  \\  \frac{4998}{1000}  \times  \frac{12}{1}  = 59.976
