Answer:

-13x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive Property

-4 (2.5x) + (-4)(-1.25) - 3x

Multiply 2.5 by -4

- 10x - 4 * 1.25 - 3x

Multiply -4 by 1.25

- 10x + 5 -3x

Subtract 3x from -10x

-13x + 5

Hope this helped!

What is 5(4x-5y)-2=453

Tamiku [17]

5(4x-5y)-2=453

5(4x-5y)=455

4x-5y=91

When solving for x

4x=5y+91

x= 5y+91/4

When solving for y

-5y=-4x+91

y=-4x+91/-5

The school that Jack goes to is selling tickets to a choral performance. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 9 seni

raketka [301]

Answer:

Price of a senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of a student ticket is $15 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the price a senior citizen ticket be x .

Let us assume that the price a student citizen ticket be y .

As given

The school that Jack goes to is selling tickets to a choral performance.

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 9 senior citizen tickets and 8 student tickets for a total of $156.

Equtaions becomes

9x + 8y = 156

As given

The school took in $163 on the second day by selling 7 senior citizen tickets and 9 student tickets.

Equations becomes

7x + 9y = 163

Multipy 9x + 8y = 156 by 9 .

81x + 72y = 1404

Multiply 7x + 9y = 163 by 8 .

56x + 72y = 1304

Subtracted 56x + 72y = 1304 from 81x + 72y = 1404 .

81x - 56x + 72y - 72y = 1404 - 1304

25x = 100

$x = \frac{100}{25}$

x = $ 4

Putting value of x in the 56x + 72y = 1304 .

56 × 4 + 72y = 1304

224 + 72y = 1304

72y = 1304 - 224

72y = 1080

$y = \frac{1080}{72}$

y = $15

Therefore the price of a senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of a student ticket is $15 .

According to a survey, 65% of murders committed last year were cleared by arrest or exceptional means. Fifty murders committed

monitta

Answer:

a) $P(X=41)=(50C41)(0.65)^{41} (1-0.65)^{50-41}=0.00421$

b) $P(X=36)=(50C36)(0.65)^{36} (1-0.65)^{50-36}=0.0714$

$P(X=37)=(50C37)(0.65)^{37} (1-0.65)^{50-37}=0.0502$

$P(X=38)=(50C38)(0.65)^{38} (1-0.65)^{50-38}=0.0319$

And adding these values we got:

$P(36 \leq X \leq 38)= 0.1535$

c) We can find the expected value given by:

$E(X) = np =50*0.65 = 32.5$

And the standard deviation would be:

$\sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)} \sqrt{50*0.65*(1-0.65)}= 3.373$

We can use the approximation to the normal distribution and we have at leat 95% of the data within 2 deviations from the mean. And the lower limit for this case would be:

$\mu -2\sigma = 32.5- 2*3.373 = 25.75$

And then we can consider a value of 18 as unusual lower for this case.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "number cleared by arrest or exceptional", on this case we can model this variable with this distribution:

$X \sim Binom(n=50, p=0.65)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Part a

We want this probability:

$P(X=41)=(50C41)(0.65)^{41} (1-0.65)^{50-41}=0.00421$

Part b

We want this probability:

$P(36 \leq X \leq 38)$

We can find the individual probabilities:

$P(X=36)=(50C36)(0.65)^{36} (1-0.65)^{50-36}=0.0714$

$P(X=37)=(50C37)(0.65)^{37} (1-0.65)^{50-37}=0.0502$

$P(X=38)=(50C38)(0.65)^{38} (1-0.65)^{50-38}=0.0319$

And adding these values we got:

$P(36 \leq X \leq 38)= 0.1535$

Part c

We can find the expected value given by:

$E(X) = np =50*0.65 = 32.5$

And the standard deviation would be:

$\sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)} \sqrt{50*0.65*(1-0.65)}= 3.373$

We can use the approximation to the normal distribution and we have at leat 95% of the data within 2 deviations from the mean. And the lower limit for this case would be:

$\mu -2\sigma = 32.5- 2*3.373 = 25.75$

And then we can consider a value of 18 as unusual lower for this case.

Moesha needs $79 for a class trip. She already has $22 and she can earn the rest by babysitting for 8 hours. If h represents her

elena55 [62]

Answer:

79-22=8h

Step-by-step explanation:

She can earn the rest by babysitting for only 8 hours,

so take 22 from 79, divide the total by 8 and that is how much she gets per hour (8h)
