Nikolay [14]3 years ago

Answer:

Small boxes: 8

Large boxes: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

number of small boxes = x

number of large boxes = y

weight of boxes is represented by:

50x + 80y = 1280

Number of boxes is represented by:

x + y = 19

First, we'll solve for x in terms of y:

x = 19-y

Then we'll substitute that into the weight equation

50(19-y) + 80y = 1280

950 - 50y + 80y = 1280

30y = 330

y = 11

Now drop that numerical value into the number of boxes equation, and we'll get

x + 11 = 19

x = 8

Check the math in the weight equation:

50(8) + 80(11) =

400 + 880 = 1280

Let me know if you have any questions. Have a good evening!

Suppose ACT Reading scores are normally distributed with a mean of 21.4 and a standard deviation of 5.9. A university plans to a
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

29.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = 21.4

Standard deviation = 5.9%

The minimum score required for the scholarship which is the scores of the top 9% is calculated using the Z - Score Formula.

The Z- score formula is given as:

z = x - μ /σ

Z score ( z) is determined by checking the z score percentile of the normal distribution

In the question we are told that it is the students who scores are in the top 9%

The top 9% is determined by finding the z score of the 91st percentile on the normal distribution

z score of the 91st percentile = 1.341

Using the formula

z = x - μ /σ

Where

z = z score of the 91st percentile = 1.341

μ = mean = 21.4

σ = Standard deviation = 5.9

1.341= x - 21.4 / 5.9

Cross multiply

1.341 × 5.9 = x - 21.4

7.7526 = x -21.4

x = 7.7526 + 21.4

x = 29.1526

The 91st percentile is at the score of 29.1526.

We were asked in the question to round up to the nearest tenth.

Approximately, = 29.2

The minimum score required for the scholarship to the nearest tenth is 29.2 .
