So let's say quarters = x and dimes = y. You'd then put x + y = 77 (for a total of 77 coins). And your second equation would be .25x + .10y = 12.50 (.25 for the total value a quarter holds and .10 for a total value a dime holds). Then you'd do matrices on a calculator.

(b) A department store has 7,000 charge accounts. The comptroller takes a random sample of 36 of
galben [10]

Answer:

a.0.8664

b. 0.23753

c. 0.15866

Step-by-step explanation:

The comptroller takes a random sample of 36 of the account balances and calculates the standard deviation to be N42.00. If the actual mean (1) of the account balances is N175.00, what is the probability that the sample mean would be between

a. N164.50 and N185.50?

b. greater than N180.00?

c. less than N168.00?

We solve the above question using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ/√n where

x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean = N175

σ is the population standard deviation = N42

n is random number of sample = 36

a. Between N164.50 and N185.50?

For x = N 164.50

z = 164.50 - 175/42 /√36

z = -1.5

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 164.50) = 0.066807

For x = N185.50

z = 185.50 - 175/42 /√36

z =1.5

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x=185.50) = 0.93319

Hence:

P(x = 185.50) - P(x =164.50)

= 0.93319 - 0.066807

= 0.866383

Approximately = 0.8664

b. greater than N180.00?

x > N 180

Hence:

z = 180 - 175/42 /√36

z = 5/42/6

z = 5/7

= 0.71429

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<180) = 0.76247

P(x>180) = 1 - P(x<180) = 0.23753

c. less than N168.00?

x < N168.

z = 168 - 175/42 /√36

z = -7/42/6

z = -7/7

z = -1

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<168) = 0.15866

Divide 42 in a ratio of 1:2:3
Vilka [71]

the ratio in which 42 should be divided is 1:2:3

the sum of the parts of the ratio is - 1 + 2 + 3 = 6

this means that there's a sum of 6 parts

so we need to find how much 1 part is equivalent to

if 6 parts are equivalent to 42

then 1 part is equivalent to - 42/6 = 7

so the ratio should be 1:2:3

1 part - 7

2 parts - 7 x 2 = 14

3 parts - 7 x 3 = 21

therefore 42 divided into 1:2:3 ratio is as follows

7 : 14 : 12

Paint costing $19 per gallon is to be mixed with thinner costing $3 per gallon. How much of each should be added to make 16 gall
Evgen [1.6K]
Let x represent gallons of $19 paint
let y represent gallons of $3 paint

first you make your 2 equations

x+y=16, y=16-x
(19x+3y) ÷ 16 = 14

then you use substitution

14 = (19x + 3(16-x) ) ÷16
224 = 19x + 48 - 3x
176 = 16x
11 = x, so there's 11 gallons of $19 paint
recall that x+y=16
11+y=16
5=y

so there are 11 gallons of $19 paint and 5 gallons of $3 paint

19% of a certain population of students at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is affected by an autosomal dominant condition called ‘laz
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

81%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'L' be the dominant and 'l' e the recessive allele for ‘lazybuttness’.

Since ‘lazybuttness’ is an autosomal dominant condition, the 19% of students affected by the condition correspond to the  homozygous dominant (LL) and heterozygous (Ll) genotypes. Therefore, the rest of the population has the homozygous recessive genotype (ll) and is not affected. The frequency of students not affected is:

F = 100% - 19% = 81%
