What is the value of the expression “two less than six times the difference of a number and five” when n = 9?

Mathematics

Finger [1]3 years ago

Answer:

Try solving 6(n-5)-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe this can be set up as 6(n-5)-2. The difference of a number and five can be represented by n-5. If this needs to be multiplied by 6 (hence 6 times), it would become 6(n-5). Two less than that is represented by -2. Thus, two less than six times the difference of a number and five is 6(n-5) -2, which, when n=9 is plugged in, looks like 6(9-5) -2. Follow PEMDAS from there.

At a restaurant, three salads, two sandwiches, and one drink cost $17.75. One salad, one sandwich, and three drinks cost $10.75.
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

A salad costs $2.50

A sandwich costs $4.50

A drink costs $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the salad, y represent the sandwich, and z represent the drink.

Since three salads, two sandwiches, and one drink cost $17.75:

3x + 2y + z = 17.75  (1)

Since one salad, one sandwich, and three drinks cost $10.75:

x + y + 3z = 10.75  (2)

Since a salad costs twice as much as a drink:

x = 2z  (3)

Multiply the equation 2 by -2 then, sum the equation 1 and equation 2:

-2x - 2y - 6z = -21.50

3x + 2y + z = 17.75

→ x - 5z = -3.75

Replace the x with 2z using equation 3:

2z - 5z = -3.75

-3z = -3.75

z = 1.25

x = 2z → x = 2.50

x + y + 3z = 10.75 → 2.50 + y + 3.75 = 10.75 → y + 6.25 = 10.75 → y = 4.50

A construction zone on Interstate 15 has a speed limit of 40 mph. The speeds of vehicles passing through this construction zone
monitta

Answer:

a. The percentage of vehicles who pass through this construction zone who are exceeding the posted speed limit =90.82%

b. Percentage of vehicles travel through this construction zone with speeds between 50 mph and 55 mph= 2.28%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find

a) P(X>40)= 1- P(x=40)

Using the z statistic

Here

x= 40 mph

u= 44mph

σ= 3 mph

z=(40-44)/3=-1.33

From the  z-table   -1.67 = 0.9082

a) P(X>40)=

Probability exceeding the speed limit = 0.9082 = 90.82%

b) P(50<X<55)

Now

z1 = (50-44)/3 = 2

z2 = (55-44)/3= 3.67

Area for z>3.59 is almost equal to 1

From the z- table we get

P(55 < X < 60) = P((50-44)/3 < z < (55-44)/3)

     = P(2 < z < 3.67)

     = P(z<3.67) - P(z<2)

     = 1 - 0.9772

     = 0.0228

or 2.28%

c. 35 + 50x ≤ 1,325

Step-by-step explanation:

Abbey's total cost must be less then or equal to her total savings, i.e.

cost ≤ savings

it is given that cost = fixed registration fee and a monthly fee of $50 per month. Hence,

fixed registration + (monthly fee)*(number of months) ≤ savings

let the number of months be x,

hence

35 + 50x ≤ 1325(c)
