Answer:

mark me brainliest plz

answer is = d=5

Step-by-step explanation:

4(3d-5) = 40

4(3d) - 4(5) = 40

12d-20 = 40

12d = 40+20

12d = 60

divide both sides by 12

d=5

This meal originally costs $75. Fatima used a 20% off coupon and then tax was added. The total after coupon and tax was $75.

Savatey [412]

The discount given on the cost of the meal is $15

<h3>How to calculate tax on a given price</h3>

According to the question, we are given the following information

The original cost of the meal = $75

Off coupon = 20%

Required

The number of coupons given

coupon amount = 0.2 * 75
coupon amount = $15

Hence the discount given on the cost of the meal is $15

The length of a rectangle is 1 ft less than double the width, and the area of the rectangle is 21 ft^2. Find the dimensions of t

ICE Princess25 [194]

Let the width be w, then length = 2w - 1

Area = length times width = w(2w - 1) = 21.

Thus, 2w^2 - w = 21 or 2w^2 - w - 21 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation gives that w = 3.5.

Therefore, width is 3.5 ft and length is 2(3.5) - 1 = 6 ft.

Scores on a college entrance exam are normally distributed with a mean of 550 and a standard deviation of 100. Find the value th

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The value that represents the 90th percentile of scores is 678.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 550, \sigma = 100$
