Answer:

The number of miles Jill ran is the number of miles Sue ran (11) minus the number of miles Sue ran more than Jill (7).

So far, x=11-7.

Reorder the equation. Add 7 to both sides.

x + 7 = 11.

So, the correct equation is A.

A) x + 7 = 11

Jill runs x amount of miles and Sue runs x miles plus 7 miles.

The owner of a stereo store wants to advertise that he has many different sound systems in stock. The store carries 6 different

Orlov [11]

Answer: 540

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The owner of a stereo store wants to advertise that he has many different sound systems in stock.

Number of different CD players =6

Number of different receivers= 10

Number of different speakers = 9

We are assuming that a sound system consists of one of each .

Then by Fundamental principle of counting , we have

The number of different sound systems can he advertise = (Number of different CD players)x (Number of different receivers) x(Number of different speakers)

= 6 x10 x 9 =540

Hence, the number of different sound systems can he advertise =540

When Isaac commutes to work, the amount of time it takes him to arrive is normally distributed with a mean of 44 minutes and a s

mario62 [17]

Answer:

[34,54]

Step-by-step explanation:

-The empirical rule states that the 95% of the sampled observations will fall within two standard deviations of the mean for a normally distributed population.

Where:

68% is the first standard deviation
95% is the second standard deviation about the mean
99.7% is the 3rd standard deviation about the mean.

-Therefore. the middle 95% interval is calculated as:

$CI=\mu+2\sigma\\\\=44\pm 2(5)\\\\=44\pm 10\\\\=[34,54]$

Hence, the interval is [34,54]

Suppose a 50-foot ladder is leaning against a wall. Which statements about the base of the ladder are true?

Liula [17]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

These are the statements that make the question complete:

A. If the base is 24 feet from the wall, the ladder reaches 45 feet up the wall.

B. If the base is 30 feet from the wall, the ladder reaches 40 feet up the wall.

C. If the base is 27 feet from the wall, the ladder reaches 44 feet up the wall.

D. If the base is 14 feet from the wall, the ladder reaches 48 feet up the wall.

Since the ladder leans against a wall, a right angle triangle is formed. Since the ladder is now slant, then it's length becomes the hypothenuse.

The correct statements can be gotten through Pythagoras theorem which says:

A² + B² = C² where C is the hypothenuse and A and B are the other two sides.

Since the hypothenuse is 50, we can test each statement by taking the square of the two sides and add them up, if they are equal to 50² = 2500, then the statement is true.

A. 24² + 45² = 576 + 2025 = 2601 ≠ 2500, therefore it is false.

B. 30² + 40² = 900 + 1600 = 2500, therefore it is true.

C. 27² + 44² = 729 + 1936 = 2665 ≠ 2500, therefore it is false

D. 14² + 48² = 196 + 2304 = 2500, therefore it is true.

From here, statements B and D are true while the rest are all false.
