Answer:

6 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

this one is mainly elimination. 3.8 and 4.9 cant be because they're too close to the mean. and 7.1 is too far. you can also use z-score. the z score of .975 is 1.96 we can plug that into out formula so

1.96=(x-3.8)/1.1

multiply both sides by 1.1 and then add 3.8

you can also use scientific calculator.

second vars, 3, the area is your percent so .975, the u is mean so 3.8, the o is standard deviation so 1.1

Brian has 40000 to invest in a mix of corporate and municipal bonds. The corporate bond pays 10% simple annual interest and the
jonny [76]

Answer:

Sum of money invested in corporate bonds = 30,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Total sum = 40,000

The rate of interest for corporate bonds = 10 % = 0.1

The rate of interest for municipal bonds = 6 % = 0.06

Total interest = 3600

Let sum of money invested in corporate bonds = x

The sum of money invested in municipal bonds = 40000 - x

x × 0.1 × 1 + (40000 - x) × 0.06 × 1 = 3600

(0.1- 0.06)x + 2400 = 3600

0.04 x = 1200

x = 30,000

Since x =  sum of money invested in corporate bonds

So  sum of money invested in corporate bonds = 30000

I need help ASAP middle school work.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

For 11  1/2 gallons, he paid $36.80.

We need to find the cost per gallon.

First, converting 11  1/2 gallons to decimal, it is:

1/2 = 0.5

So, 11  1/2  is  11.5 gallons

So, Cost Per Gallon (last week) = \frac{36.80}{11.5}=3.2

There is 5% increase on this $3.20 per gallon. We find 5% of 3.2 and add it to 3.2 to find this week's cost per gallon.

<em>5% = 5/100 = 0.05</em>

<em>0.05 * 3.20 = 0.16</em>

<em>So,</em>

<em>3.20 + 0.16  = $3.36 per gallon</em>

<em />

Cost Per Gallon (this week) = $3.36

To buy 9  1/4 gallons it would take:

3.36*9.25=31.08

<u>Note:</u>  1/4 = 0.25, so 9  1/4 = 9.25

It would cost $31.08  to buy  9.25 gallons this week

Correct answer is B

Given rectangles LMNO and PQRS, which statement explains a way to determine if the two figures are similar?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Definition:</u> Two rectangles are similar when they have corresponding sides proportional are proportional by dilation.

For example, rectangles with sides 3 cm, 4cm and 6 cm, 8 cm are similar, but rectangles with sides 3 cm, 4 cm and 6 cm, 10 cm are nor similar.

Since all angles in rectangle are always right angles, then options A and C are false (in terms of your question).

Option D is false too, because translation doesn't change the length, and in this case two rectangles are congruent.

Option B is true according to definition.
