Answer:

Smaller cooler can hold 8 gallons and the bigger cooler can hold 40 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: June needs 48 gallons of punch for a party and has two different

coolers to carry it in. The bigger cooler is five times as large as the

smaller cooler.

To find: How many gallons can each cooler hold?

Solution: Let the smaller cooler can carry x gallons of punch.

As per the question, the larger cooler will carry 5x gallons of punch.

Now, it is given that June needs 48 gallons of punch for a party.

So, we have an equation as $x+5x=48$

On solving, the above equation for x we have,

$x+5x=48$

$6x=48$

$x=8$

So, the smaller cooler can hold 8 gallons of punch and the bigger cooler can hold $8\times5=40$ gallons.

Hence, smaller cooler can hold 8 gallons of punch and the bigger cooler can hold 40 gallons of punch.

The Office of Student Services at UNC would like to estimate the proportion of UNC's 34,000 students who are foreign students. I

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Mean is 3.05

Standard deviation is 1.69.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are foreign, or they are not. This means that we can solve this problem using concepts of the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The probability of x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

In this problem, we have a sample of 50 students, so $n = 50$ . The proportion of all UNC students that are foreign students is 0.061, so $p = 0.061$ .

The mean is given by the following formula:

$E(X) = np = 50*0.061 = 3.05$

The standard deviation is given by the following formula:

$\sigma = \sqrt{n*p*(1-p)} = \sqrt{50*0.061*(1-0.061))} = 1.69$

For the level 3 course, exam hours cost twice as much as workshop hours, workshop hours cost twice as much as lecture hours. How

natulia [17]

<h2>Answer</h2>

Cost of lectures = $7.33 per hour

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Let $e$ the cost of the exam hours

Let $w$ be the cost of the workshop hours

Let $l$ be the cost of the lecture hours.

We know from our problem that exam hours cost twice as much as workshop, so:

$e=2w$ equation (1)

We also know that workshop hours cost twice as much as lecture hours, so:

$w=2l$ equation (2)

Finally, we also know that 3hr exams 24hr workshops and 12hr lectures cost $528, so:

$3e+24w+12l=528$ equation (1)

Now, lets find the value of $l$ :

Step 1. Solve for $l$ in equation (3)

$3e+24w+12l=528$

$12l=528-3e-24w$ equation (4)

Step 2. Replace equation (1) in equation (4) and simplify

$12l=528-3e-24w$

$12l=528-3(2w)-24w$

$12l=528-6w-24w$

$12l=528-30w$ equation (5)

Step 3. Replace equation (2) in equation (5) and solve for $l$

$12l=528-30w$

$12l=528-30(2l)$

$12l=528-60l$

$72l=528$

$l=\frac{528}{72}$

$l=\frac{22}{3}$

$l=7.33$

Cost of lectures = $7.33 per hour

A waiter at a restaurant has diarrhea what should happen?

Vilka [71]

The waiter should go home. It is because it is improper with regards to food safety and pathogenic bacteria such as E.coli can contaminate the food. Though the productivity of the restaurant will decrease, food safety must come first to reduce customer complaints.
