Marianne has been collecting donations for her biscuit stall at the school summer fayre. There are some luxury gift tins of bisc

uits to be sold at £5 each, normal packets at £1 each, and mini-packs of 2 biscuits at 10p each. She tells Amy that she has recieved exactly 100 donations in total, with a collective value of £100, amd that her stock of £1 packets is very low compared with the other items. Amy wants to work out how many of each item Marianne has. Show how she can do it.

The problem conditions give rise to 2 equations in 3 unknowns. Let L, M, N represent the number of Luxury, Mini, and Normal packets sold.
.. L +M +N = 100 . . . . . . the number of packets sold
.. 5L +0.1M +N = 100 . . the value of donations
These result in the relationships
.. L = (9/40)M
.. N = 100 -(49/40)M

There are three integer solutions in which the numbers are non-negative.
.. (L, M, N) = (0, 0, 100) or (9, 40, 51) or (18, 80, 2)

If Marianne sold 100 normal packets, her stock would be "very low" compared to the others.

If Marianne sold 51 normal packets, her stock may be "very low" with respect to the others, depending on how many of each she started with. This might be the solution if we require non-zero numbers of all packets were sold.

Alina [70]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change here will be the difference in the number of tracks divided by the difference in the number of albums.

Let's pick two random rows (it doesn't matter which two because they will produce the same result): (2, 16) and (4, 32).

The rate of change is: \frac{32-16}{4-2} =\frac{16}{2} =8

The answer is thus C.

A lightbulb has a normally distributed light output with mean 5000 end foot-candles and standard deviation of 50 end foot-candle
Blizzard [7]
To find the specification limit such that only 0.5% of the bulbs will not exceed this limit we proceed as follows;
From the z-table, a z-score of -2.57 cuts off 0.005 in the left tail; given the formula for z-score
(x-μ)/σ
we shall have:
(x-5000)/50=-2.57
solving for x we get:
x-5000=-128.5
x=-128.5+5000
x=4871.50

Xy+(4(20))>x-5y(2+9-7)
prohojiy [21]

I'll solve for y xy+(4(20))>x-5y(2+9-7) 

xy+4(20)>x-5y(2+9-7) 

xy+4(20)>x-5y(4) 

xy+4(20)>x-20y 

xy+80>x-20y 

xy+20y+80>x 

y(x+20)>-80+x 

y>(-80+x)/(x+20)

I NEED HELP PLEASE! Jenny's birthday cake is circular and has a 30 cm radius. Her slice creates an arc of with a central angle o
dybincka [34]
Ok, so if the angle is 120 degrees, its one third of the full cake (which is 360 degrees). So the area of the whole circle (worked out with area = pi * r^2 where r is 30) gives 900*pi, and so one third of that (because her slice is one third)  is 300pi.
