Capucine played a game where she earned 179 points from building 11 museums and 4 libraries.

Lets assume  x points she earn per library

She earns 4 more points  for museum than  library.

4 more points per museum per x .  so the points earned per museum is x+4

she earned 179 points from 11 museums and 4 libraries.

So the equation becomes

11 (x+4) + 4x = 179

11x +44 + 4x = 179

15x + 44 = 179 ( subtract 44 from both sides)

15x= 135 (divide by 15 from both sides)

x = 9

She earns 9 points per library

We know points per museum = x+4 = 9+4 = 13

She earns 13 points per museum .

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Lily would present after Edward

Step-by-step explanation:

Catherine must present after Ted. Therefore we have Ted, Catherine.

There must be one presenter between Bianca and Catherine, therefore we have: Bianca, x, Catherine. x is the name of the presenter between  Bianca and Catherine. Since Ted presents immediately before Catherine, x = Ted. This means we have Bianca, Ted, Catherine.

There must be at least two other people must present after Edward and before Ted. This means we have Edward, y, Bianca, Ted, Catherine. y is the name of the presenter between Edward and Bianca.. Since we have only five presenters, the only presenter remaining is Lily.

Therefore the presenters are arranged as:

Edward, Lily, Bianca, Ted, Catherine.

Lily is the second to present. Lily would present immediately after Edward and before Bianca

Suppose that two people standing 5 miles apart both see the burst from a fireworks display. After a period of time, the first pe
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

the fireworks display occured at x = 1,266,650 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that sound travels at 1100 feet per second

We will use the general equation for an hyperbola given by;

(y²/a²) - (x²/b²) = 1

We assume that the longer axis for the hyperbola is on the y axis.

In this problem, the total distance traveled by the sound is 1100 ft per second and we can find the value of "a" as:

2a = 1100

a = 1100/2 = 550

Also, since both people are 5 miles apart, we can find the value of c like this:

2c = 2(5)

So,c = 5 miles

Since the distance of sound was given in ft. Thus;

Lets convert 5 miles to ft.

1 mile = 5280 ft

Thus; 5 miles = 5 x 5280 = 26,400 ft

Now, we can find b² from;

b² = c² - a²

b² = 26400² - 550²

b² = 696960000 - 302500

b² = 696657500

Thus, plugging in the relevant values to obtain;

(y²/302500) - (x²/696657500) = 1

In this case we want to find the value of x when y = 5miles = 26400 ft

solving for x we have:

(26400²/302500) - (x²/696657500) = 1

This leads to;

2304 - (x²/696657500) = 1

Thus;

2304 - 1 = (x²/696657500)

2303 x 696657500 = x²

x² = 1604402222500

x = √1604402222500

x = 1,266,650 ft

A meteorologist in denver recorded y = the number of days of rain during a 30-day period. does y have a binomial distribution? i
olga_2 [115]

Solution: Yes, the random variable y will have a binomial distribution. Because there are two possible outcomes 1. number of days of rain and 2. number of days of no rain.

The parameters of binomial distribution are n and p

The parameter n is given as the number of day's under consideration.

\therefore n=30

The parameter p is not given, but it can be estimated by number of days it rained divided by the total number of days under consideration.

\therefore p=\frac{y}{n} =\frac{y}{30}

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

$392.  No they don't have enough money to pay for the trip.

They need $255 more dollars, which would take 14 weeks and 2 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

18 x 4 = 72

320 + 72 = 392

647 - 392 = 255

255/18 = 14.2
