Answer:

102 1/3 swimmers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of swimmers on Tuesday = x

Number of swimmers on Monday = 2x

Number of swimmers on Wednesday = 3x - 11

Total swimmers for all 3 days = 625

x + 2x + (3x - 11) = 625

3x + 3x - 11 = 625

6x = 625 - 11

6x = 614

x = 614 / 6

= 102 2/6

x = 102 1/3 swimmers

Number of swimmers on Tuesday = x = 102 1/3 swimmers

Number of swimmers on Monday = 2x

= 2(102 1/3)

= 204 2/3

Number of swimmers on Wednesday = 3x - 11

=3(102 1/3) - 11

= 307 - 11

= 296

A collection of 19 coins consisting of nickels and dimes is worth $1.35. How many dimes are there
pshichka [43]

Answer:

There are 8 dimes there.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved used a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of nickels.

y is the number of dimes.

19 coins

This means that x + y = 19.

A nickel is worth $0.05. A dime is worth $0.1. The total of these coins is $1.35. So

0.05x + 0.1y = 1.35

How many dimes are there?

We have to find y.

From the first equation: x = 19 - y.

Replacing in the second:

0.05(19 - y) + 0.1y = 1.35

0.95 - 0.05y + 0.1y = 1.35

0.05y = 0.4

y = 0.4/0.05

y = 8

There are 8 dimes there.

There is a 15% it will rain on both Saturday and Sunday. There is a 60% chance of rain on Saturday. What is the chance of
Artemon [7]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is about conditional probability. Let's say that the probability of raining on Saturday is X=true and the probability of raining on Sunday is Y=true. There is a 15% it will rain on both Saturday and Sunday, to put into the equation it will be:

P(X= true ∩ Y = true) = P(X = true) * P(Y = true)= 0.15

There is a 60% chance of rain on Saturday, mean the  equation is

P(X = true) = 0.6

The question is asking for the chance of rain on Sunday or P(Y = true). If we substitute the second equation to first, it will be:

P(X = true) * P(Y = true)= 0.15

0.6* P(Y = true)= 0.15

P(Y = true)= 0.15/0.6

P(Y = true)= 0.25 = 25%
