let x=cost/lb of walnuts

let y=cost/lb of chocolate chips

..

3x+5y=16

6x+2y=22

6x+10y=32 (mult. eq by 2)

6x+2y=22

subtract:

8y=10

y=10/8=1.25

x=16-5y=9.75

cost/lb of walnuts=$1.25

cost/lb of chocolate chips=$9.75

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given that X -  the distribution of heights of male pilots is approximately normal, with a mean of 72.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.7 inches.</em>

<em />

<em>Height of male pilot = 74.2 inches</em>

<em />

<em>We have to find the percentile</em>

<em />

<em>X = 74.2</em>

<em />

<em>Corresponding Z score = 74.2-72.6 = 1.6</em>

<em />

<em>P(X<174.2) = P(Z<1.6) = 0.5-0.4452=0.0548=5.48%</em>

<em />

<em>i.e. only 5% are below him in height.</em>

<em />

<em>Thus the malepilot is in 5th percentile.</em>
