Caleb has 20 more books than Danica. If Caleb gives Danica half of his books, Danica will have 4 more books than Caleb. How many
wariber [46]

Answer:

Option E: 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Caleb (C) has 20 more books than Danica (D), we have:

C = 20 + D   (1)

Now, when Caleb gives Danica half of his books:

C' = C - \frac{C}{2}   (2)

Danica will have 4 more books than Caleb, so:

D' = D + \frac{C}{2}     (3)    

Also we have that:

D' = C' + 4   (4)  

By entering equation (2) and equation (3) into equation (4) we have:

D + \frac{C}{2} = C - \frac{C}{2} + 4   (5)

From (1) we have:

D = C - 20   (6)

By entering (6) into (5):

C - 20 + \frac{C}{2} = C - \frac{C}{2} + 4

C = 24

And, from (6):

D = C - 20 = 24 - 20 = 4  

Therefore, the correct option is E, Caleb had to start with 24 books.

I hope it helps you!

The average lethal blood concentration of morphine is estimated to be 2.5 µg/mL with a standard deviation of 0.95 µg/mL. The dat
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The probability associated with the range lethal morphine blood levels is 0.9902.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = lethal blood concentration of morphine.

The random variable <em>X</em> is normally distributed with parameter <em>μ</em> = 2.5 μg/ mL and <em>σ</em> = 0.95 μg/ mL.

Compute the probability of <em>X</em> within the range 0.05 to 4.95 μg/ mL as follows:

P(0.05

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability associated with the range lethal morphine blood levels is 0.9902.

Maria has $2.43 in quarters and pennies in her wallet. She has twice as many pennies as quarters. How many coins of each type do
user100 [1]

Given maria has \\\$ 2.43 in the pennies & quarters.

she has twice as many pennies  as quarters.

find out the coins

let us assume the  quarters are x

than the pennies are 2x.

Formula

 value of the pennies +  value of the quarters = total value of coins

1 quarters =$ 0.25

1 pennies = $0.01

Thus

0.25x + 0.01 (2x) = 2.43

0.27 x = 2.43

x = 9

2x = 18

i.e the number of quarters are 9 and the number of pennies are 18.

Hence proved

Which of the following is a radical equation? x + StartRoot 5 EndRoot = 12 x squared = 16 3 + x StartRoot 7 EndRoot = 13 7 Start
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(8x-8)^{3/2}=64

Multiply both sides by the exponent 2/3.

8x - 8 = 64^{2/3}

Solve for the exponent.

8x-8=16

Add 8 to both sides.

8x = 16+8

8x=24

Divide 8 into both sides.

x=24/8

x=3
