Let's assume he bought "x" tokens initially.

He spent 3 over 8 of them at ring toss game booth. So he used (3x/8) tokens there.

His remaining tokens after first game = x - (3x/8) = (5x/8) tokens.

He then spent 2 over 5 of them at darts game booth. So he spent (2/5)(5x/8) = (x/4) tokens there.

His left over tokens after second game = (5x/8) - (x/4) = (3x/8) tokens.

Now he bought another 35 tokens, his new balance = 35 + (3x/8)  tokens.

His new balance is ten more than his initially bought tokens.

So 35 + (3x/8) - x = 10

35 + (3x-8x)/8 = 10

35 + (-5x/8) = 10

(5x/8) = 35 - 10

(5x/8) = 25

5x = 25*8 = 200

x = 200/5 = 40

Hence, he bought initially 40 tokens.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size = 95

X=cash carried by the persons

x bar = 8.00

s = sample std dev = 2.50

Std error = \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } =\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{95} } \\=0.2565

Hence Z score would be

\frac{x-8}{0.2565}

a) P(X

-0.00

b) P(9

c) 95% conf interval margin of error = ±1.96*0.2565

=±0.54782

Confi interval = (8-0.5027, 8+0.5027)

= (7.4923, 8.5027)

C)If conf level increases, then width of interval would increase since critical value would increase.

If sample size increases std error would decrease and hence margin of error.

So interval would decrease.

Write 0.00658 in standard form
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

0.00658 = 6.58 * 10^-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form is a way of writing numbers easily in powers of 10.

To write a number in standard form, we have to move the decimal point to the front of the first non zero number.

Depending on the position of the decimal point to the first non zero number, movement can be towards the right or towards the left. When we move towards the right, our power of 10 will be negative, when we move in the left direction, our power of 10 will be positive

In this question, we shall be moving towards the right. Thus, our power of 10 is negative. We shall be moving towards the right 3 three times

Thus our power would be 10^-3

Thus our standard form will be 6.58 * 10^-3

Kindly note that another pointer is, if the value of our number to be written in standard form is less than zero, then the standard form will come in negative powers of 10. If the value of the number is greater or equal to 1 at least, then then the standard form will be in positive powers of 10

A ship anchored in a port has a ladder which hangs over the side. The length of the ladder is 200cm, the distance between each r
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 8 h

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length of the ladder = 200 cm

distance between each rung = 20 cm

rate = 10 cm/h

fifth rung = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the total distance the tide must rise

distance = 20 cm x 4

              = 80 cm              because the first rung touches the water

2.- Calculate the time

rate = distance / time

-Solve for time

time = distance / rate

-Substitution

time = 80 cm / 10cm/h

-result

time = 8 h
