3 boys for every 2 girls
So, the percentage of girls is (2 / 5) x 100 = 40%
Answer:
X is 24.
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the surface area by 4
2x+4y=0
3x+y=10
So what we want to do is get y onto one side by itself using whatever equation you like.
So I'm taking 2x+4y=0 and subtracting 4y from both sides
So we end up with
2x=4y
Divide both sides by four
2/4x is 1/2 x
So we get 1/2x=y
Take this and plug it into the other equation
3x+y=10
3x+1/2x=10
Add your like terms
3 1/2x=10
Putting 3 1/2 as a mixed number we get 7/2
So..
7/2x=10
Multiply by the opposite of 7/2 on both sides
Which is 2/7 this will cancel out the left side.
So we end up with
X= 10•2/7
X=20/7
Which is 2 and 6/7 as a mixed number.
Answer:
[0.184, 0.266]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of survey n =280
Number of veterans = 63
Confidence interval = 90%
Computation:
Probability of veterans = 63/280
Probability of veterans =0.225
a=0.1
Z(0.05) = 1.645 (from distribution table)
Confidence interval = 90%
So,
p ± Z*√[p(1-p)/n]
0.225 ± 1.645√(0.225(1-0.225)/280)
[0.184, 0.266]
Answer:
30 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
time = distance/speed
If x represents Jane's speed along the summit then her total exploration time is ...
12/x + 40/(x -5) = 2 . . . . . hours
Multiplying by (x)(x -5), we get ...
12(x -5) +40(x) = 2(x)(x -5)
Dividing by 2 and subtracting the left side gives ...
x^2 -31x +30 = 0
(x -30)(x -1) = 0 . . . . . factor
Solutions are x = 30 and x = 1, values of x that make the factors zero. A speed of 1 mph makes no sense in this problem, so ...
Jane's speed along the summit was 30 mph.
