Answer:

Number of ml of 40% sugar = x = 1000mL

Number of ml of 85% sugar used = y = 800mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the

Number of ml of 40% sugar = x

Number of ml of 85% sugar used = y

From the above question, our system of equations is given as:

x + y = 1800mL ....... Equation 1

x = 1800 - y

40% × x + 85% × y = 60% × 1800mL

0.4x + 0.85y = 1080.... Equation 2

We substitute 1800 - y for x in Equation 2

0.4(1800 - y) + 0.85y = 1080

720 - 0.4y + 0.85y = 1080

- 0.4y + 0.85y = 1080 - 720

0.45y = 360

y = 360/0.45

y = 800mL

Solving for x

x = 1800 - y

x = 1800 - 800

x = 1000mL

Therefore,

Number of ml of 40% sugar = x = 1000mL

Number of ml of 85% sugar used = y = 800mL

A study of 860 u.s. atms (automated teller machines) found that the average surcharge for withdrawals from a competing bank was
sp2606 [1]

The statement is false as the sample is a few ATMs of the total ATMs in US.

<h3>What do you mean by ATM?</h3>
  • An automated teller machine, or ATM, is a customized computer that makes it simple for bank account holders to manage their money. One can use it to print a statement of account activity or transactions, check account balances, withdraw or deposit money, and even buy stamps.
  • Customers can carry out simple financial transactions using an automated teller machine (ATM), an electronic banking facility, without the assistance of a branch person or teller.
  • With no assistance from the bank, withdraw money whenever you need to. The consumers' privacy is guaranteed. Rupee withdrawals are quicker than bank withdrawals and do not require standing in long lines. Since no bank employees are involved in the transaction, maintenance costs are lower.
  • Two primary types of automated teller machines (ATMs) exist. One is a basic, straightforward device that lets you check your balance, change your PIN, obtain small statements, and get account notifications. The more sophisticated units offer possibilities for a line of credit and bill payment and cash or check deposits.

The sample is only 860 ATMs and not total ATMs in US thus, a sample of 860 ATMs have taken and conducted the survey.

Thus, the statement is false as the sample is a few ATMs of the total ATMs in US.
