Answer:

300 Adults 555 Children

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know:

Firstly, at 5pm there were 36 more Children (C) than Adults (A)

So.....C = A + 36

Secondly, at 12pm there were 5 x more Children and 4 x more Adults and the total was 855

So 4A + 5C = 855

——-

Now use ‘C = A + 36’ and get rid of all ‘C’ in the second equation.....

4A + 5C = 855

becomes......

4A + 5 (A + 36) = 855

Multiply the brackets (5 x A) and (5 x 36):

4A + 5A + 180 = 855

Take off 180 from both sides:

4A + 5A = 675

Therefore 9A = 675

Divide by 9:

A = 75

We know C is A + 36

C = 111

At 5 pm - A = 75 and C = 111

Therefore at 12:

There were 5 x C = 555

And 4 x A = 300

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

The mean should be 64.63 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are 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.

In this problem, we have that:

\sigma = 0.38

The quality control inspector wants to adjust the machine such that at least 95% of the jugs have more than 64 ounces of detergent. What should the mean amount of detergent poured by this machine into these jugs be?

This is \mu, for which X = 64 will have a pvalue of 1-0.95 = 0.05. So when X = 64, Z = -1.645.

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

-1.645 = \frac{64 - \mu}{0.38}

64 - \mu = -1.645*0.38

\mu = 64 + 1.645*0.38

\mu = 64.63

The mean should be 64.63 ounces.

Explain how you could write a quadratic function in factored form that would have a vertex with an x-coordinate of 3 and two dis
dem82 [27]

Two distinct roots means two real solutions for x (the parabola needs to cross the x-axis twice)

Vertex form of a quadratic equation: (h,k) is vertex

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

The x of the vertex needs to equal 3

y = a(x-3)^2 + k

In order to have two distinct roots the parabola must be (+a) upward facing with vertex below the x-axis or (-a) downward facing with vertex above the x-axis. Parabolas are symmetrical so for an easy factorable equation make "a" 1 or -1 depending on if you want the upward/downward facing one.

y = (x-3)^2 - 1

Vertex (3,-1) upwards facing with two distinct roots 4 and 2

y = x^2 -6x + 9 - 1

y = x^2 -6x + 8

y = (x - 4)(x - 2)
