Using a system of equations, it is found that the meter contains 20 dimes and 10 quarters.

<h3>System of equations:</h3>

For the system, the variables are:

  • x is the number of dimes.
  • y is the number of quarters.

A dime is worth $0.1 and a quarter is worth $0.25. In total, the parking meter is filled with $4.50, hence:

0.1x + 0.25y = 4.5

There are twice as many dimes as quarters, hence:

x = 2y

Then:

0.1x + 0.25y = 4.5

0.1(2y) + 0.25y = 4.5

0.2y + 0.25y = 4.5

0.45y = 4.5

y = \frac{4.5}{0.45}

y = 10

x = 2y = 2(10) = 20

There are 20 dimes and 10 quarters in the parking meter.

In a standard normal distribution, about _________% of the scores fall above a z-score of 3.00
Katarina [22]

The normal rule to remember is 68-95-99.7, i.e. plus or minus three sigma corresponds to 99.7% of the probability. That leaves 0.3% in the two tails, or 0.15% in the tail above 3 sigma.

Answer: 0.15%

A test consists of 100 multiple choice questions, each with five possible answers, only one of which is correct. Find the mean a
TEA [102]

Answer:  Mean = 20 and standard deviation = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the success of getting the correct answer.

Here, the total number of trials(n) = 100

The probability of getting the correct answer, p = 1/5

Thus, the mean of the number of correct answer,

\mu_x= np

\mu_x= 100\times 1/5

\mu_x= 20

Now, the standard deviation, \sigma_x= \sqrt{n\times p\times (1-p)}

\sigma_x= \sqrt{100\times 1/5\times 4/5}

\sigma_x= \sqrt{16}

\sigma_x= 4

Thus, First option is correct.
