23.4 ounces of Oreos

Find how much 20% is by setting up a proportion:

\frac{20}{100}  =  \frac{x}{19.5}

Cross multiply:

100x = 390

Divide both sides by 100 to isolate x:

x = 3.9

Now because it says the new packaging contains 20% <em>more</em>, you <em>add</em> 3.9 ounces to 19.5 ounces.

3.9 + 19.5 = 23.4

Your answer is 23.4 ounces.

Answer: It took 18 Months for Michelle to collect 59 dolls.


Explanation:
First, let’s right an equation for this. Michelle started with 5 dolls in a bar collection (I have no clue what that is but i’ll roll with it), and each month she bought 3 more, so 5 dolls plus the 3 dolls per month equals 59 at some point.

5 dolls + 3 dolls per month = 59 dolls
OR
5 + 3m = 59

The point of this question is to find how many months (m) it took in order to get to 59 dolls and there’s multiple ways you can do this:

1) just plug in random numbers into m to see how long it takes to get to 59 [this option might take a while]

2) Try to isolate m (get every number out of the equation) to find out the value of m. [I’m most familiar with this way]

First, subtract 5 from 5 in the equation in order to get rid of it, since we’re trying to get all whole numbers out of the equation and only have m left. You subtract 5 from 59 since the equal sign is kind of like a mirrror, whatever you do to one side you have to do to the other. So, 5-5 is 0, and 59- is 54.

Now you’re left with 3m=54. In order to isolate the m, divide 3 by 3 to get rid of the 3, then divide 54 by 3, which is 18.

In order to check your work, plug 18 into m just to see if it works or not:

5+3m=59 —-> 5+ 3(18)= 59

3 times 18 is 54, plus 5 is 59. So, Mi hells took 18 months to collect her 59 dolls. Hope this helped!

A statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are uniformly distributed between 49.0 and 59.
yKpoI14uk [10]
To find the probability of the statistic class that it could be done at the period at 50.5 and 51.25 minutes and not their usual duration of 49 and 49 minutes so to get the probability you must subtract the time and would come up with 0.75 minutes and then divide it by 10 so the probability is 0.075

Solve the following exponential equations.<br> 10^(3x−5) = 7^x
zalisa [80]

Answer:

x = 2.3202

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

10^{(3x-5)} = 7^x

on taking log both sides, we get

\log(10^{(3x-5))} =\log(7^x)

now,

using the property of log function

log(aᵇ) = b × log(a)

therefore,

we get

(3x-5)log(10) = xlog(7)

now,

log(10) = 1

and

log(7) = 0.84509

thus,

( 3x - 5 ) × 1 = 0.84509x

or

3x - 0.84509x - 5 = 0

or

2.15491x = 5

or

x = 2.3202
