Answer:

Part A:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

Part B : 35 minutes

Part C : No

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Part A :

Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day

x+y= 95

Where:

x =the number of minutes Eric plays basketball

y= the number of minutes he plays volleyball  

He plays basketball for 25 minutes longer than he plays volleyball.

x = y+25

System:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

  • Part B:

Replacing x=y+25 on the first equation:

(y+25) + y =95

Solving for Y

y+25+y =95

25+2y=95

2y=95-25

2y=70

y = 70/2

y = 35 minutes

Part C : No

if x = 35

x+y= 95

35+y =95

y= 95-35

y = 60 minutes

Replacing y=60 on the other equation:

x = y+25

35 = 60+25

35 ≠85

Jeri finds a pile of money with at least $\$200$. If she puts $\$50$ of the pile in her left pocket, gives away $\frac23$ of the
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The possible values of the number of dollars in the original pile of money is ≥ $200 but < $350

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have, pile of money ≥ $200

Amount in put the left pocket = $50

Fraction given away = 2/3 of rest of pile ≥ 2/3×150 ≥ $100

Amount put in right pocket = ≥ $150 - $100 ≥ $50

Total amount remaining with Jeri = $50 +≥ $50 ≥ $100

Also original pile - $200 < $100

Therefore where maximum amount given away to have more money = $200 we have

2/3× (original pile - 50) = $200

Maximum amount for original pile = $350

Therefore the possible values of the number of dollars in the original pile of money is ≥ $200 but < $350.

garri49 [273]

Answer:

Yes the sample can be use to make inference

Step-by-step explanation:

The inference is possible if the conditions:

p*n > 10      and   q*n > 10

where p and q are the proportion probability of success and q = 1 - p

n is sample size

Then   p = 12 / 30  = 0,4         q =  1 - 0,4    q  =  0,6

And  p*n  =  0,4 * 30  = 12            12 > 10

And  q*n  = 0,6 * 30   = 18            18 > 10

Therefore with that sample the conditions to approximate the binomial distribution to a Normal distribution are met

The tax rate is 3.9%<br> What is the tax on 42$? <br> Round to the nearest hundredth
mafiozo [28]
To find the total price, we use this equation:
42 + 0.039(42)
We can make it simpler:
1.039(42)
Multiply:
43.638
Because we're rounding
The total price is $43.64

Use the formula F = 1.8C + 32 to convert -10C into Fahrenheit
photoshop1234 [79]
Well since the value of C has been given to you, plug it into the equation.

F = 1.8(10) + 32
F = 18 +32
F = 50

The temperature in Fahrenheit would be 50 degrees.
