So basically ...
You convert the rupees in paisas. One rupee is equal to one hundred paisas, so ...
280 × 100 = 28,000
And then we divide,
28,000 ÷ 14 = 2000
The post office sold 2000 stamps!
Hope this helped! :)
Approximately 1718 have a score within that range.
We calculate the z-score for each end of this spectrum:
z = (X-μ)/σ = (2.5-3.1)/0.3 = -0.6/0.3 = -2
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that the area to the left of, less than, this z-score is 0.0228.
For the upper end:
z = (3.7-3.1)/0.3 = 0.6/0.3 = 2
Using a z-table, we see that the area to the left of, less than, this z-score is 0.9772.
The probability between these is given by subtracting these:
0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544.
This means the proportion of people that should fall between these is 0.9544:
0.9544*1800 = 1717.92 ≈ 1718
5y - 20 < 0...add 20 to both sides
5y < 20...divide both sides by 5
y < 20/5
y < 4 (this states that y is less then 4)
Therefore, the greatest integer that y could be is 3 (because integers cannot be fractions, they have to be whole numbers)
1.5kg is 1500 grams.
Maria uses 50g a day, so to know how many days takes eating the whole packet just divide 1500 by 50.
Answer:
31
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be x and y.
"The sum of two numbers is 43." gives us the first equation.
x + y = 43
"One number is five less than three times the other number." gives us the second equation.
y = 3x - 5
Now we solve the system of two equations below.
x + y = 43
y = 3x - 5
Since the second equation is already solved for y, we will use the substitution method. We substitute 3x - 5 for y in the first equation.
x + y = 43
x + 3x - 5 = 43
4x - 5 = 43
4x = 48
x = 12
The first number is 12. Now we find the second number.
x + y = 43
12 + y = 43
y = 31
The larger number is 31.
