Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Cost of blueberry pie = x

Cost of lemon meringue = y

13x + 12y = 285 (1)

3x + 12y = 195 (2)

=> 13x + 12y - (3x + 12y) = 285 - 195

=> 13x + 12y - 3x - 12y = 90

=> 10x = 90

=> x = 90/10

=> x = $ 9

From 2

3(9) + 12y = 195

=> 27 + 12y = 195

=> 12y = 195 - 27

=> 12y = 168

=> y = 168/12

=> y = $ 14

Answer:

  • Blueberry pie costs $9, lemon meringue cost $14

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Set equations:</u>

  • 13x + 12y = 285
  • 3x + 12y = 195

<u>Solve by elimination. Subtract the second equation from the first:</u>

  • 13x + 12y - 3x - 12y = 285 - 195
  • 10x = 90
  • x = 9

<u>Find the value of y:</u>

  • 3*9 + 12y = 195
  • 12y = 195 - 27
  • 12y = 168
  • y = 168/12
  • y = 14

Using vector concepts, it is found that:

The component form is of approximately (-9.58, 7,22). It means that the ship is about 9.58 miles to the west and about 7.22 miles to the north of where the ship left the port.

<h3>How can a vector be represented in component notation?</h3>

Given a magnitude M and angle \theta, then a vector V can be represented as follows in component notation:

V = (M\cos{\theta}, M\sin{\theta})

In this problem, the magnitude and the angle are given, respectively, by:

M = 12, \theta = 143^\circ

Hence:

V = [12cos(143º), 12sin(143º)] = (-9.58, 7,22).

Which means a displacement of 9.58 miles to the west(negative x = west) and 7.22 miles to the north(positive y = north).

The component form is of approximately (-9.58, 7,22). It means that the ship is about 9.58 miles to the west and about 7.22 miles to the north of where the ship left the port.

Explain why ∠4 is equal to the sum of the measures of the two nonadjacent interior angles (Angle 1 and Angle 2).
Akimi4 [234]
Angle 4 is 77 degrees. Since angles 1, 2, and 3 must add up to 180 degrees, and angles 3 and 4 must also add up to 180 degrees, angles 1 + 2 must be equal to angle 4

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

1.32% of students have the chance to attend the charter school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be 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.

This year the mean on the entrance exam was an 82 with a standard deviation of 4.5.

This means that \mu = 82, \sigma = 4.5

a.What is the percentage of students who have the chance to attend the charter school?

Students who achieve a score of 92 or greater are admitted, which means that the proportion is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 92. So

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

Z = \frac{92 - 82}{4.5}

Z = 2.22

Z = 2.22 has a pvalue of 0.9868

1 - 0.9868 = 0.0132

0.0132*100% = 1.32%

1.32% of students have the chance to attend the charter school.
