1/5(2x - 10) + 4x = -3(1/5x + 4)
0.4x - 2 + 4x = -0.6x - 12
4.4x - 2 = -0.6x - 12
5x - 2 = -12
5x = -10
x = -2
Answer:
P = F / A = 40 N / (0.0045 m^2) = 8889 N/m^2
E) 12 minutes
A normal curve has approximately 95% of graph between mean - 2sd and mean + 2sd
So 95% of the times will be between 0 and 12 minutes. 6 - 2x3 to 6 + 2x3
2.5% will take over 12 minutes
Strangely 2.5% will also take less than 0 minutes to process which shows the normal curve is not perfect in this example.
Let x and y represent the numbers of gallons used by the 40 mpg and 35 mpg cars, respectively.
.. x +y = 40 . . . . . . . . . . .total consumption is 40 gallons
.. 40x +35y = 1525 . . . . total miles driven = 1525
Multiply the first equation by 40 and subtract the second.
.. 40(x +y) -(40x +35y) = 40(40) -(1525)
.. 5y = 75
.. y = 15
.. x = 40 -15 = 25
The 40 mpg car consumed 25 gallons.
The 35 mpg car consumed 15 gallons.
If the question is how many shelves are needed, then the answer is 18 shelves.
