Add all the pencils and get 60 pencils in all, and divide it by the number of people you have Which is 12. Answer is 12 pencils!

5 people.

14 + 9 + 12 + 13 + 12 = 60 total pencils.

60 pencils /  5 people = 12 pencils each.

I hope this helps you




disctirminant=b^2-4ac


b=11


a=5


c= -3


disctirminant =11^2-4.5. (-3)


disctirminant =121+60


disctirminant =181


x1=-11+ square root of 181/2.5


x2=-11- square root of 181/2.5

In a survey, the ratio of the number of people who preferred tea to those who preferred coffee was 9:5
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

45 people prefered coffee, 81 people prefered tea. A total of 126 people were surveyed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the people who prefer tea, and let c be the people who prefer coffee.

The ratio between tea and coffee is 9:5, thus we have t/c=9/5. Cross products  give us 5t=9c.

Also, we have 36 more people prefer tea than coffee, so we have c+36=t

Thus we have: 5(c+36)=9c

5c+180=9c

180=4c

c=45

c+36=t

45+36=81

Zalia meets her friend at the science museum to see a special exhibition. The admission to the museum is $12.50 per person plus
VikaD [51]
Museum admission fee = $12.50

Lunch = 5.95 + 1.25 + 1.69 = $8.89
Tax = 7.25% of 8.89 = 0.66675
Tip = 15% of 8.89 = 1.3335
Total spend for lunch = 8.89 + 0.66675 + 1.3335 = 10.89

Total spend for the day = 10.89 + 12.50 = $23.39

I know twice as many jokes as my friend does. Together we know 60 different jokes. My friend and I both know the same three joke
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

You know 40 jokes and your friend knows 20 jokes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given you know twice as many jokes as your friend knows

Let the number of jokes your friend knows be x , then the number of jokes known by yourself will be 2x

Given together you both know 60 jokes

Total number of jokes = number of jokes known by yourself + number of jokes known by your friend

60 = x + 2x

x = 20

Therefore you know 40 jokes and your friend knows 20 jokes

For a standard normal distribution (µ=0, σ=1), the area under the curve less than 1.25 is 0.894. What is the approximate percent
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

10.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal curves are symmetrical.  That means that on a standard normal distribution,  the area less than -1.25 is the same as the area greater than +1.25.  The total area under the curve is 1, so:

P = 1 - 0.894

P = 0.106

Approximately 10.6% of the area under the curve lies below -1.25.
