Answer:

Jordans' age = 31 ; Anna's age = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations relating their ages

J + A = 50 → (1)

J = 12 + A → (2)

Substitute J = 12 + A into (1)

12 + A + A = 50

12 + 2A = 50 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

2A = 38 ( divide both sides by 2 )

A = 19

Substitute A = 19 into (2)

J = 12 + 19 = 31

Then Jordans' age = 31 ; Anna's age = 19

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

J = 12 + A equation 1

J + A = 50 equation 2

Solving equation 2

J + A = 50

A = 50 - J equation 3

Putting value of A in equation 1

J = 12 + A

J = 12 + 50 - J

Bringing like terms on one side

J + J = 12 + 50

2J = 62

J = 62/2 = 31

Putting value of J in equation 3

A = 50 - J

A = 50 - 31 = 19

Checking answer by putting values in equation 2

J + A = 50

31 + 19 = 50

50 = 50

So the age of Jordan is 31 and Anna is 19

The daily dinner bills in a local restaurant are normally distributed with a mean of $28 and a standard deviation of $6. What ar

Degger [83]

Answer:

The minimum value of the bill that is greater than 95% of the bills is $37.87.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use 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 question, we have that:

$\mu = 28, \sigma = 6$
