Where 1/4 represents Bob and 1/6 represents Ted...
1/4x + 1/6x = 1
Multiply the two so there is no fraction by the GCF of 12. 
3x + 2x = 12
Add 3x and 2x.
5x = 12
Divide by 5.
x = 12
Plug this value in.
With that, the answer is 2 hours and 24 minutes with x = 12 meaning 144 minutes.

The distribution of heights of a certain breed of terrier has a mean of 72 centimeters and a standard de- viation of 10 centimet
RSB [31]

Answer:

Pr(X-Y ≤ 44.2) = 0.5593

Step-by-step explanation:

for a certain breed of terrier

Mean(μ) = 72cm

Standard deviation (σ) = 10cm

n = 64

For a certain breed of poodle

Mean(μ) = 28cm

Standard deviation (σ) = 5cm

n = 100

Let X be the random variable for the height of a certain breed of terrier

Let Y be the random variable for the height of a certain breed of poodle

μx - μy = 72 -28

= 44

σx - σy = √(σx^2/nx + σy^2/ny)

= √10^2/64 + 5^2/100

= √100/64 + 25/100

= √ 1.8125

= 1.346

Using normal distribution,

Z= (X-Y- μx-y) / σx-y

Z= (44.2 - 44) / 1.346

Z= 0.2/1.346

Z= 0.1486

From the Z table, Z = 0.149 = 0.0593

Φ(z) = 0 0593

The probability that the difference of the observed sample mean is at most 44.3 is Pr(Z ≤ 44.2)

Recall that if Z is positive,

Pr(Z≤a) = 0.5 + Φ(z)

Pr(Z ≤ 44.2) = 0.5 + 0.0593

= 0.5593

Therefore,

Pr(X-Y ≤ 44.2) = 0.5593

Given the polynomial 21x 4 + 3y - 6x 2 + 34
padilas [110]
The given polynomial is 21x⁴ + 3y - 6x² + 34

We want to subtract a polynomial, f(x) so that
21x⁴ + 3y - 6x² + 34 - f(x) = 29x² - 7

Therefore
-f(x) = 29x² - 7 - (21x⁴ + 3y - 6x² + 34)
       = -21x⁴ + 35x² - 3y - 41

Answer: 21x⁴ - 35x² + 3y + 41

The final value of the car will be given by:

final = origamt(1 - .20) to the 4th power. The car will retain therefore,only 80% of its original value from the preceding year for each of the 4 years starting with an original value of $35000.

The calculation is

final \:  value \\  = (35000) {(.8)}^{4}  \\  = 35000 \times .4096 \\  =
