Answer:

I found the answer, sorry for the last answer it mustve thrown you off, and I know its late but here we go. So its 5cm because 5cm is one piece, if we double that it is 10cm, this is our second piece. It states that the third piece is 3cm longer than the second, which would be 13cm. So 13cm+10cm+5cm is 28cm, the length of the original board

hope i helped this time

52 cm long is cut into three pieces
x + y + z = 52
such that the second piece is twice as long as the first
y = 2x
third is 7 cm longer than the second
z = y + 7

So,
z = 2x + 7

x + 2x + 2x + 7 = 52
5x = 45
x = 9
y = 18
z = 25. I think

Scores on an exam follow an approximately Normal distribution with a mean of 76.4 and a standard deviation of 6.1 points. What p
klasskru [66]

Answer:

99.89% of students scored below 95 points.

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 = 76.4, \sigma = 6.1

What percent of students scored below 95 points?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 95. So

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

Z = \frac{95 - 76.4}{6.1}

Z = 3.05

Z = 3.05 has a pvalue of 0.9989.

99.89% of students scored below 95 points.

diamong [38]
Okay, so he started out with 45 lbs. 

Let's make 40% into a decimal. 

40%= .4

I would multiply .4 to 45.
 18.

Add 18 to 45 to get the answer.

The original weight of his bag was 63 pounds.
