To answer this, write a system of equations and use one to solve the other.

b + 2c = 2000 or b = 2000 - 2c (substitute this in for b in the 2nd equation)

2b + 3c = 3300
2 (2000 - 2c) + 3c = 3300
4000 - 4c + 3c = 3300
4000 -c = 3300
-c = -700
c = 700 calories

He burned 700 calories per hour canoeing and 600 calories per hour playing basketball (2000 - 2 x 700).

Jody bought 20 shares of amazon at the close price of $121.00. She bought 20 more shares a year later at the price of $127.00. T
hjlf

Answer:

Jody made $210 after all of these transactions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jody bought 20 shares of amazon at the price of $121.00

= 121.00 × 20 = $2,420

After one year she bought 20 more shares at the price of $127.00

= 127.00 × 20 = $2,540

Her broker charges $50.00 for each transaction = 50 × 2 = $100

Total cost of all shares = 2,420 + 2,540 + 100 = $5,060

She sold all of her shares at the price of $133.00

= 133 × 40 = $5,320

She gave broker charge for this transaction = $50.00

Total selling amount  = 5,320 - 50 = $5,270

Profit = Selling amount - cost

Profit = 5,270 - 5,060 = $210

Jody made $210 after all of these transactions.

Times for an ambulance to respond to a medical emergency in a certain town are normally distributed with a mean of 400 seconds a
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the normal distribution curve, the mean is in the middle and each line to the left and to the right of that mean represent 1- and 1+ the standard deviation.  If our mean is 400, then 400 + 50 = 450; 450 + 50 = 500; 500 + 50 = 550.  Going from the mean to the left, we subtract the standard deviation and 400 - 50 = 350; 350 - 50 = 300; 300 - 50 = 250.  We are interested in the range that falls between 350 and 450 as a percentage.  That range represents the two middle sections, each containing 34% of the data.  So the total percentage of response times is 68%.  We are looking then for 68% of the 144 emergency response times in town.  .68(144) = 97.92 or 98 emergencies that have response times of between 350 and 450 seconds.

Benito wrote the equations shown about the figure. Explain Benito’s errors.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

  • Benito's error was using the equal sign (=) instead of the congruency symbol (≅).

Explanation:

Benito's error was using the equal sign (=) instead of the congruency symbol (≅).

The congruency symbol (≅) means that the elements (segments, angles or figures in general) have the same measure, i.e. they have equal lengths for the segments or equal measure for the angles.

For instance, it is an error saying that the segment AB is equal to the segment BC because, as you clearly see in the picture, they are not same; they have the same length but they are joining different points, that makes them different in essence, although they have the same length. They would be equal only if they are the same figure.

In mathematics, you must not say that two different segments or two different angles are equal but they are congruent, which means that their lengths are equal. The use of equal is reserved for numbers and variables, not for figures like segment, points, angles, polygons.

Clint is in study hall reading the hunger games after 20 minutes he is on page 151 after 45 minutes he's on page 181 how many pa
Mademuasel [1]

After 20 minutes Clint is on page = 151

After 45 minutes Clint is on page = 181

Time slot = 45-20=25 minutes

Difference in pages in 25 minutes = 181-151=30 pages.

Lets suppose Clint is reading each page at same pace.

So , In 25 minutes, he can read = 30 pages

In 1 minute he can read = \frac{30}{25}=1.2 pages

Initial time is 20 minutes, so he can read the number of pages in 20 minutes = 20\times1.2=24

So, number of pages Clint read prior to study hall were =

151-24=127 pages.
