A light bulb's brightness is reduced when placed behind a screen. The amount of visible light produced by the light bulb decreas

es by 25% with each additional layer that is added to the screen. With no screen, the light bulb produces 750 lumens. The lumen is a unit for measuring the total quantity of visible light emitted by a source. Select the correct equation that can be used to represent the lumens, L, after x screen layers are added.

It is an exponential function, since 25% of the light is lost by adding each screen, or remaining light is 1-0.25=0.75 of the previous brightness.

Thus, after x screens,
L(x)=L*0.75*0.75... *0.75  (x times)
=L*0.75^x

Catherine has $54. She plans to spend more than $20 of the money for a painting canvas. The rest will go toward paints. Each tub
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

4. 54- 8.5x>20

Step-by-step explanation:

Catherine only has $54, so she cannot spend more than that.

The canvas will cost at least $20, but we don't know how much exactly.

The tubes cost $8.50 each.

So, she starts with a total budget of $54, out of which she will buy paints (8.5x) and she wants to have at least $20 left for canvas.

So, we transpose those facts into the inequity:

54 - 8.5x > 20

A given set of values is found to be a normal distribution with a mean of 140 and a standard deviation of 18.0. Find the value t
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The value that is greater than 45% of the data values is approximately 137.84.

Step-by-step explanation:

The key is transforming values from this distribution to a z-score range and finding the corresponding value using a z-score table.

We are looking for a value x which attains a critical z-score that corresponds to the (100-45)%=55-th percentile:

z_{0.55} = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{x-140}{18}\implies x = 18\cdot z_{0.55}+140

The critical z value (from z-score table, online) is: -0.12, so:

x = 18\cdot z_{0.55}+140=18\cdot(-0.12)+140\approx137.84

The value that is greater than 45% of the data values is approximately 137.84.

What is 2 divided 1 6/7 ? Please answer
Aliun [14]
If you would like to divide 2 by 1 6/7, you can do this using the following steps:

1 6/7 = 13/7

2 / 1 6/7 = 2 / 13/7 = 2/1 / 13/7 = 2/1 * 7/13 = 14/13 = 1 1/13

The correct result would be 1 1/13.
