Answer:

36 total cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

2 dozen = 2/3 of the total cookies

24 = 2/3 of the total cookies

24/x = 2/3

cross multiply

24(3) = 2x

72 = 2x

x = 36

Check the math: 2/3 x 36 = 72/3 = 24

Another math problem I cant solve.​
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:  x = 7, y = -3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

3y = 26 - 5x     --> added 5x to both sides to get:  5x + 3y = 26

Elimination method (I am going to eliminate "x":

5x + 3y = 26   →    6(5x + 3y = 26)    →     30x + 18y = 156

6x + 7y = 21    →   -5(6x + 7y = 21)     →   <u> -30x - 35y</u> =<u> -105</u>

                                                                          -17y  =   51

                                                                        <u> ÷-17  </u>    <u>÷-17</u>

                                                                              y =   -3

Now, input y = -3 into one of the original equations to solve for "x":

    3y = 26 - 5x

 3(-3) = 26 - 5x

     -9 = 26 - 5x

-9 -26 = -5x

    -35 = -5x

      7  =  x

Scores on a university exam are Normally distributed with a mean of 68 and a standard deviation of 9. Using the 68-95-99.7 rule,
Bas_tet [7]
The rule is::

- 68% of data are in the range mean +/-  1*standard deviation
- 95% of data are in the range mean +/-  2*standard deviation
<span>- 99.7% of data are in the range mean +/-  3*standard deviation

Here mean is 68 and standard deviation is 9.

Score 77 is 68 + 9, which is mean + 1 standard deviation.

Then, the difference 100% - 68% = 32% is the % of data out of the range. Of those, diven the symmetry of the normal distribution, half will be above the range, this is 16% of scores are above 77.
