A rational number can be expressed in the form a/b, where a and b are other integers.  To satisfy this definition, 0.9 can be written as 9/10, 18/20, 90/100, etc.

Emily went to the movie theater for her birthday. A mix of adults and children attended, making a total of 22 people. Each adult
viktelen [127]

Answer:

13 children and 9 adults if the total cost is $152.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x children and y adults

x + y = 22 (1)

5.5x + 9y = 125.5 (2)

y = 22 - x

5.5x + 9(22 - x) = 125.5

5.5x + 198 - 9x = 125.5

-3.5x = 125.5 - 198

-3.5x = -72.5

x = 20.7

y = 22 - x = 1.3

Which is not possible

If the total cost is $152.5

x + y = 22 (1)

5.5x + 9y = 152.5 (2)

y = 22 - x

5.5x + 9(22 - x) = 152.5

5.5x + 198 - 9x = 152.5

-3.5x = 152.5 - 198

-3.5x = -45.5

x = 13

y = 22 - 13 = 9

Blanche bought a 5-year cd for $7100 with an apr of 2.8%, compounded quarterly, but she wants to take all her money out 9 months
katrin2010 [14]
The formula for getting the accumulated amount(compounded) is;
A =P(1+r%)∧n
Where A = Acumulated amount 
            P = principle (deposit)
            r = interest rate and
            n = period
Since the interst is compounded quartly, 
period = (5×4)-3 = 17

A = 7100(1+2.8/100)∧17
   = 7100×1.028∧17
   = 11,353.80

The money she will end up earning in interest on the cd = $11,353.80

The distribution of heights of a certain breed of terrier has a mean of 72 centimeters and a standard de- viation of 10 centimet
RSB [31]

Answer:

Pr(X-Y ≤ 44.2) = 0.5593

Step-by-step explanation:

for a certain breed of terrier

Mean(μ) = 72cm

Standard deviation (σ) = 10cm

n = 64

For a certain breed of poodle

Mean(μ) = 28cm

Standard deviation (σ) = 5cm

n = 100

Let X be the random variable for the height of a certain breed of terrier

Let Y be the random variable for the height of a certain breed of poodle

μx - μy = 72 -28

= 44

σx - σy = √(σx^2/nx + σy^2/ny)

= √10^2/64 + 5^2/100

= √100/64 + 25/100

= √ 1.8125

= 1.346

Using normal distribution,

Z= (X-Y- μx-y) / σx-y

Z= (44.2 - 44) / 1.346

Z= 0.2/1.346

Z= 0.1486

From the Z table, Z = 0.149 = 0.0593

Φ(z) = 0 0593

The probability that the difference of the observed sample mean is at most 44.3 is Pr(Z ≤ 44.2)

Recall that if Z is positive,

Pr(Z≤a) = 0.5 + Φ(z)

Pr(Z ≤ 44.2) = 0.5 + 0.0593

= 0.5593

Therefore,

Pr(X-Y ≤ 44.2) = 0.5593

Suppose that birth weights are normally distributed with a mean of 3466 grams and a standard deviation of 546 grams. Babies weig
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

3.84% probability that it has a low birth weight

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 3466, \sigma = 546

If we randomly select a baby, what is the probability that it has a low birth weight?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 2500. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{2500 - 3466}{546}

Z = -1.77

Z = -1.77 has a pvalue of 0.0384

3.84% probability that it has a low birth weight
