Answer:

84 books were taken to the market.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's turn the word problem into algebra.

We can rewrite 3:4 as 3x:4x since we don't know the actual individual numbers, solely that it is divisible by these numbers.

Next, since we know 3x = 36 because of the question, we can solve for x using the division property of equality and get x=12. Once we have x=12 we can find the number of books the other trader has - 4x - by simply multiplying 12 by 4 to get 48 books. Now all we need to do is find the total number of books that both traders have and to do this all we need to do is add 36 to 48 to get a final answer of 84 books.

pychu [463]
-4x + 2x = -2x
6 + 5 = 11
Therefore, 11 - 2x = 0
11 = 2x
x = 11/2 = 5.5

baherus [9]

Answer:

Probability that the cost will be less than $500 is 0.95994 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Money magazine reported that a visit to a hospital emergency room for something as simple as a sore throat has a mean cost of $348 with a standard deviation of $87.

Let X = cost of a hospital emergency room visit for this medical service

So, X ~ N(\mu=348, \sigma^{2} =87^{2})

The standard normal z score distribution is given by;

              Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~ N(0,1)

(a) Probability that the cost will be less than $500 = P(X < $500)

    P(X < 500) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{500-348}{87} ) = P(Z < 1.75) = 0.95994 {from z table}

Therefore, the probability that the cost will be less than $500 is 0.95994 .

How do i get the solution to graph 2x+3y=12
Pavel [41]
2x + 3y = 12

I am going to put this in y = mx + b form, where m is ur slope and b is ur y intercept.
2x + 3y = 12
3y = -2x + 12
y = -2/3x + 4......slope is -2/3 and y int is (0,4)

x int can be found by subbing in 0 for y and solving for x
2x + 3y = 12
2x + 3(0) = 12
2x = 12
x = 6.....so x int is (6,0)

start at y int (0,4).....and since the slope is -2/3, come down 2 spaces, and to the right 3 spaces, then down 2 spaces, to the right 3 spaces....keep doing that and u should cross the x axis at (6,0)

Yallllll pls help mee plsssssssssssssssssssssssss
elixir [45]
A- Veronica —> v=5+2m
Total —> v+m=32

B- since you already know that to get veronica’s number of stuffed animals, you need to use v=5+2m, you need to substitute it in the total equation. So it’ll be:

(5+2m)+m=32

(5+2m) represents veronica’s stuffed animals
m represents Mariposa’s stuffed animals


C- Mariposa —> 9
Veronica —> 23
