Answer:

<em>630 cups</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

This problem is most easily solved backward, i.e., from the final data up to the beginning.

There was a new box of cups and the worker at a snack stand opened it. He first used 30 cups from the box and the second day he uses 15% of the remaining cups in the box, and we are told that represents 90 cups.

If 15% (0.15) equals 90 cups, then the number of cups before the second day was 90/0.15 = 600 cups.

On the first day, we used 30 cups, thus the original number of cups in the box was 600+30=630 cups

Answer:

x = \frac{-3d-9}{k-d}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out equation

d(-3 + x) = kx + 9

Step 2: Distribute <em>d</em>

-3d + dx = kx + 9

Step 3: Subtract 9 on both sides

-3d + dx - 9 = kx

Step 4: Subtract dx on both sides

-3d - 9 = kx - dx

Step 5: Factor out <em>x</em>

-3d - 9 = x(k - d)

Step 6: Divide both sides by k - d

x = \frac{-3d-9}{k-d}

Answer:

A.)

Lower Value = 295

Upper Value = 485

B.)

Lower Value = 200

Upper Value = 580

C.)

Lower Value = 105

Upper Value = 675

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that mean (M) = 390

Standard deviation (σ) = 95

Lower Value = mean value - number of standard deviations specified

Upper Value = mean value + number of standard deviations specified

a. Μ ± 1σ of the observations lie between what two values?

Lower Value = 390 - 1(95) = 295

Upper Value = 390 + 1(95) = 485

b. Μ ± 2σ of the observations lie between what two values?

Lower Value = 390 - 2(95) = 200

Upper Value = 390 + 2(95) = 580

c. Μ ± 3σ of the observations lie between what two values?

Lower Value = 390 - 3(95) = 105

Upper Value = 390 + 3(95) = 675
