Answer:

The sum of two numbers is 240. The larger number is 6 less than twice the smaller. Find the numbers.

----------

Let the smaller be "x" ; Larger is "2x-6"

EQUATION:

x + 2x-6 = 240

3x= 246

x = 82 (smaller)

2x-6 = 158 (larger)

The systolic blood pressure (BP) of adults in the USA is nearly normally distributed with a mean of 121 and standard deviation o
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Around 0.73% of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 121 and standard deviation of 16.

This means that \mu = 121, \sigma = 16

Around what percentage of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure

The proportion is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 160. So

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

Z = \frac{160 - 121}{16}

Z = 2.44

Z = 2.44 has a p-value of 0.9927.

1 - 0.9927 = 0.0073

0.0073*100% = 0.73%

Around 0.73% of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure

Mrs.Wicker bought a case of 24 juice boxes for $12.How much did each box of juice cost?
NeTakaya
Hey there!

To find the answer, we can divide the total cost by the total number of juice boxes.

\frac{12}{24}

= \frac{1}{2}

A half of a dollar is 50 cents.

Thus, each juice box cost 50 cents.

Have an awesome day! :)
