Answer: 500 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sergio and Lizeth have planned to rent a car from a company that charges $75 a week plus $0.25 a mile.

i.e. Fixed charge= $75

Rate per mile = $0.25

Let x denotes the number of miles.

Then, Total charges = Fixed charge+ Rate per mile x No. of miles traveled

=  $75+ $0.25x

To keep budget within $200, we have following equation.

75+0.25x=200\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.25=200-75\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.25=125\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{125}{0.25}=\dfrac{12500}{25}=500

Hence, they can travel 500 miles and still keep within their $200 budget.

Mia has 1/2 of a pizza. She divides it equally among 4 people. Which model shows the fraction of a whole pizza each person gets
Llana [10]

Each person gets \frac{1}{8} of whole pizza

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Mia has \frac{1}{2} of a pizza

She divides it equally among 4 people

<em><u>To find: Fraction of a whole pizza each person gets</u></em>

From statement,

\frac{1}{2} of pizza is divided equally among 4 people

Therefore, to find the fraction of whole pizza each person gets, we can divide the \frac{1}{2} by 4 people

\text{fraction each person gets } = \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{4}\\\\\text{fraction each person gets } = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{4}\\\\\text{fraction each person gets } = \frac{1}{8}

Thus each person gets \frac{1}{8} of whole pizza

Question 6 The mineral content of a particular brand of supplement pills is normally distributed with mean 490 mg and variance o
AysviL [449]

Answer:

0.3085 = 30.85% probability that a randomly selected pill contains at least 500 mg of minerals

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean 490 mg and variance of 400.

This means that \mu = 490, \sigma = \sqrt{400} = 20

What is the probability that a randomly selected pill contains at least 500 mg of minerals?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 500. So

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

Z = \frac{500 - 490}{20}

Z = 0.5

Z = 0.5 has a p-value of 0.6915.

1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085

0.3085 = 30.85% probability that a randomly selected pill contains at least 500 mg of minerals
