Answer:

The hiking club's member count increased by 48%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two data values: 25 members and 37 members. We need to determine how many members the club gained first. We can set up an equation where we solve for an unknown, or<em> x</em>, in this case.

$25 + x = 37\\\\x = 12$

The club increased by 12 members, so now we can divide this value by the initial amount of members and multiply the decimal we receive by 100 to express it in percentage form.

$\frac{12}{25} =0.48\\\\0.48 \times 100 = 48\%$

Therefore, the club's member count increased by 48%.

Which is the best buy?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide each of the prices by the amount of candy bars, B is the lowest. The price for 1 candy bar with A's price is 1.75. The price for 1 candy bar for B's is 1.71. The price for 1 candy bar with C's is 1.73 and the price of 1 candy bar for D's is 1.74. Again, B has the lowest price for 1 candy bar so the correct answer is B.

If y has moment-generating function m(t) = e 6(e t −1) , what is p(|y − µ| ≤ 2σ)?

Lostsunrise [7]

Since $\mathrm M_Y(t)=e^{6(e^t-1}$ , we know that $Y$ follows a Poisson distribution with parameter $\lambda=6$ .

Now assuming $\mu,\sigma$ denote the mean and standard deviation of $Y$ , respectively, then we know right away that $\mu=6$ and $\sigma=\sqrt6$ .

So,

$\mathbb P(|Y-\mu|\le2\sigma)=\mathbb P(6-2\sqrt6\le Y\le6+2\sqrt6)=\dfrac{66366}{175e^6}\approx0.940028$

A local car wash is open 8 hours each day. It uses 1/3 of a container of wax for each car. The car wash waxes an average of 8 1/

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

22.67 containers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of cars washed is the average by the total hours worked:

$C_{total}=\bar xt,\bar x=8.5,t=8\\\\C_{total}=8.5\times 8=68$

Given that each car uses 1/3 tin of wax, the total containers is calculated as:

$Containers=\bar x_c n,n=68,\bar x_c=\frac{1}{3}\\\\=\frac{1}{3}\times 68\\\\=22.67$

Hence, the car wash uses 22.67 containers of wax per day.

How are mountains and plateaus alike?

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

It is similar to a mountain in that it is dramatically higher than what is immediately around it. But mountains usually have a distinct apex or peak that is very small relative to the base and not typically level. Plateaus and mesas have tops only a little smaller than the base, and relatively flat. If the aspect ratio is less than 1, plateau. If greater than 1, mesa.
