This is a non replacement question, so each letter decreases by 1.

No vowels
The question actually starts right here. The preamble tells us that we can only use letters, no numbers, and no symbols. We are not asked to do anything. The first question makes no mention of there being anything special about m. It can be there or it most likely is not. This part of the problem is the first part.

First Part
I'm not going to deal with y. I will declare it to be a consonant.
There are 5 vowels. None of them can be chosen.
21 letters remain (including the m since it has not been limited in any way yet).

21 * 20 * 19 * 18 * 17
================
26 * 25 * 24 * 23 * 22

2441880 / 7893600
0.30934
Note: If your calculator has nPr on it, you can enter 21 nPr 5 to eliminate all the typing.

Second Part
No vowels and the first letter MUST be m
1 * 20 * 19 * 18 * 17/( 26 * 25 * 24 * 23 * 22)
116200/7893600 = 0.01473

Vowels and the first letter m.
1 * 25 * 24 * 23 * 22/ 7893600 = 0.03846

The cost of coffee is determined by the type of coffee beans that are mixed together. The cost of a local mix of Arabica and Rob
Andreyy89

Answer:

If a mixture contains 1000 pounds of Arabica beans, there should be <u>250 pounds of Robusta beans</u> in the mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

700A+1,200R=1,000,000

700(1000) +1,200R=1,000,000 - First, plug in the A value and simplify .

700000+1,200R=1,000,000 - Then, subtract 700,000 from both sides.

1,200R=300,000 - Finally, divide by 1,200 on both sides of the equation.

R=250  - This is your value for R, or the Robusta beans.

<u>250 pounds of Robusta beans</u>

Hope this helps!

The number of hours walked varies inversely with the speed of the walker. if it takes sam 12 hours to complete his walking goal
Effectus [21]
We let k be the proportionality constant for the relationship between number of hours, h and speed of the walker, s. 

                        h = k/s
Substituting the known values,
                        12 = k/5
                          k = 60

For the second scenario,
                          h = k/s
Substituting the calculated value for k and the given value for speed,
                          h = (60)(3 miles/hour)
                         h = 20 hours
                         h = 20 hours

Therefore, it will take 20 hours to walk with a speed of 3 miles per hour.

Find the values of x1 and x2 where the following two constraints intersect.
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer: x1 = 251/26, x2 = -111/26

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

As you can see in the figure, the point you are looking for is the intersection of two lines.

The intersection point is found solving this system of linear equations (the point must satisfy both equations):

9x_1 +7x_2=57\\4x_1 + 6x_2 = 13

You can solve it, for example, by the method of substitution:

\text{solve for x1 in the first equation:}\\x_1 = \frac{1}{9}(57 - 7x_2)

Then plug x1 into equation 2, and solve for x2:

\frac{4}{9}(57-7x_2) + 6x_2 = 13\\\text{doing the algebra you get:}\\x_2 = \frac{-111}{26}

Then you use the value of x2 to get x1:

x_1 = \frac{1}{9}(57 - 7x_2)= \frac{1}{9}(57 + 7*\frac{111}{26}) = 251/26\\

The highest recorded temperature during the month of July for a given year in Death Valley, California has an approximately norm
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

P(X

And we can find this probability using excel or the normal standard tabe and we got:

P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the temperatures of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(123.8,3.1)  

Where \mu=123.8 and \sigma=3.1

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability using excel or the normal standard tabe and we got:

P(z
