Sonia saves a lot of water. To figure this out, you plug the number 8 into the equation, replacing it with the variable x. y = 3(8). Therefore, y=24. To find out how much water she saves, you have to also figure out how much water she was using for 8 minutes with the other shower head, the one that wastes the water. Since it dispenses 12 gallons per minute, you multiply that by 8 minutes and get 96. Subtract 24 from 96 and get 72. Which I think is your answer. Then again, I'm in high school so I most likely am wrong.
Jeremy should use coupon 2 because when you multiply both the sweaters (36) by .25 you get 9, and then you subtract 36 by 9 which is 27.
But when you use coupon 1 you multiply 18 by .40 which is 7.20 where you subtract 18 by 7.20 which is 10.80. You then add 10.80 with 18 which is 28.80.
I don't even know what the question is but I found the same problem and this was the answer
Answer: in order to qualify, the time must be at least 15.93 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a random variable representing the average response times of fire departments to fire calls. Since it follows a normal distribution, we will determine the z score by applying the formula,
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = sample mean
µ = population mean
σ = population standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 12.8 minutes
σ = 3.7 minutes
in order to qualify for the special safety award, the probability value would be to the right of the z score corresponding to 80%
The z score corresponding to 80% on the normal distribution table is 0.845
Therefore,
0.845 = (x - 12.8)/3.7
0.845 × 3.7 = x - 12.8
3.13 = x - 12.8
x = 12.8 + 3.13 = 15.93
The procedure is to make the difference of the terms that occupy the same position (column and row):
| - 6 - 4 | | - 5 5 | | - 6 + 5 - 4 - 5 | | -1 - 9 |
| 6 0 | - | - 4 -1 | = | 6 + 4 0 + 1 | = | 10 1 |
| 6 4 | | 6 - 4 | | 6 - 6 4 + 4 | | 0 8 |
Answer: option B.
