We can write this in math as x+y+z=104, x=y-6, and z=3y
Because we already know what x and z are in terms of y, we can substitute our values for x and z into the first equation. This now looks like (y-6) + y + (3y) = 104. Now we can simplify our equation to find our value for y.
y-6 + y + 3y = 104 simplifies to 5y - 6 = 104, then 5y=110, and finally y=22.
Now that we know our value for y we can find our values for x and z by substituting our value for y into the other two equations.
The second equation x = y-6 can be simplified as x = 22 - 6 and further simplified as x = 16.
The third equation z = 3y can be written as z = 3(22) or z = 66.
Our three numbers are 16, 22, and 66. Hope this helps you!
Answer:
by doing it the same way you did with the first one.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each individual contributed $x
3x=$19.50
x=$6.50
Each friend contributed $6.50
The sample is his friends. They might be the same group of interests. The sample needs to be random. Even if he went around and grabbed random people he may not have known at his school, it still wouldn't be random bc they could all be bias towards a local sports team or have different interests than someone from somewhere else
<span>This would be a bell curve with a z-score of greater than +2.00, since 3 minutes is exactly two standard deviations greater than the mean of 2.00. Looking at a z-score table for the proportion of the curve that lies in the 1-tailed area greater than 2.00, we find that the value is .0228. This would be the probability that the conversation is over three minutes: 0.0228 or 2.28%.</span>
