Richard purchases a box of 12 cookies and Meghan purchases a bag of 10 cookies. Richard ate x amount of cookies from his box while Meagan ate half the number of cookies Richard ate. How many cookies did Richard eat if they had the same number of cookies left

Answers

Answer 1

Richard: 12 cookies

Meghan: 10 cookies

If Richard eats 4 cookies, then Meghan would eat half, or 2. So Richard would have 8 cookies, and Meghan would also have 8 cookies.

12 - x = 10 - x/2

If x = 4

12 - 4 = 10 - 4/2

8 = 8

Which confirms that Richard would have to eat 4 cookies for them to have the same amount.

I hope this helps! :)

On two investments totaling $14,000, Peter lost 4% on one and earned 6% on the other. If his net annual receipts were $312, how much was each investment?

Answers

Answer:

5280 , 8720

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose the one is x, another is y

x+y=14000

y(6%)-x(4%)=312

x=5280

y=8720

net annual receipt means the income so you have to substract the lost from the gains

Suppose you are reviewing your cell phone bill on Friday and you notice you go over your data limit 49% of the time. You
review the weather forecast for tomorrow that says there is a 11% chance of rain. Assuming rain and going over in data are
independent events, what is the probability that it rains and you go over in data tomorrow? Give your answer as an exact
fraction and reduce the fraction as much as possible.

Answers

Probability that it rains and you go over in data tomorrow = 0.0539

Percentage of time it takes to go over your data limit = 49%

Probability that you go over your data limit, P(data) = 49/100

P(data) = 0.49

The chance that it rains tomorrow = 11%

Probability that it rains tomorrow, P(rain) = 11/100

Probability that it rains tomorrow, P(rain) = 0.11

Probability that it rains and you go over your data tomorrow = P(rain) x P(data)

Probability that it rains and you go over in data tomorrow = 0.11 x 0.49

Probability that it rains and you go over in data tomorrow = 0.0539

[Break up fraction] [tex]\frac{w}{2}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex] + 2 = [tex]\frac{w-5}{3}[/tex]

What is the probability that client A, the newborn you’re considering for a 30-year policy, lives to be 30 years old? Client A is a non-Hispanic white male, so look in table 14.

Answers

Using the probability concept, it is found that there is a 0.97555 = 97.555% probability that client A lives to be 30 years old.

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes, that is:

[tex]p = \frac{D}{T}[/tex]

In this problem:

Out of 100,000 clients, 97,555 lives to age 30, hence [tex]D = 97555, T = 100000[/tex]

Then:

[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{97555}{100000} = 0.97555[/tex]

There is a 0.97555 = 97.555% probability that client A lives to be 30 years old.

A similar problem is given at https://brainly.com/question/25790531

Step-by-step explanation: The other answer... the math is correct, its just that they have read the source table incorrectly.

Age

29-30 = 97,555

30-31 = 97,424

The correct row is 30-31.

97,424 / 100,000 = 0.97424

You can tell this is the case because look at row 0-1.. its a 100% chance of survival. If you read that row as a '1 year old' then 100% of all people survive until they turn 1? Alas, no, this is not true :(

5 An army cook wants to make pudding
for dessert. He has a recipe that calls for
2 cups of milk to make 4 servings. There
are 16 cups in a gallon. How many gallons
of milk does the cook need to make
864 servings of pudding?

Answers

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

First you dvide 864 by 4  to get 216. Next you multiply the 216 by 2 to find that there are 432 cups in 864 servings. Finally you divide by 16 to turn 432 cups into 27 gallons.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

27 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply each number by 8, so you can get 16 cups.

16 cups to make 32 servings or 1 gallon to make 32 servings

Then find out what you multiply 32 by to get 864 by dividing 864/32 which is 27.

Now multiply the 1 gallon by 27 to get 27 gallons in 864 servings

Two students are throwing water balloons at a target. Accuracy is measured as how close the balloon is from the
center of the target. Tory's distances from the center of the target are approximately Normally distributed with a
mean of 123 mm and a standard deviation of 31 mm. Adam's distances from the center is approximately Normally
distributed with a mean of 108 mm and a standard deviation of 47 mm. If 5 attempts for Tory and 3 attempts for
Adam are randomly selected, what is the probability that the mean distance from the center of the target for Tory is
more than for Adam?
O 0.3113
O 0.4923
O 0.6887
O 0.7427

Answers

Answer:

0.6887

Step-by-step explanation:

Using normal distribution, the probability of that mean distance from the center of the target for Tory is more than for Adam is 0.6887.

What is normal distribution?

Normal distribution is "continuous probability distribution that its symmetrical around its mean with most values near the central peak".

According to the question,

Tory's distances from the center of the target are normally distributed with a mean of 123mm and a standard deviation 31mm. Number of attempts for Tory is 5.

Adam's  distances from the center of the target are with a mean of 108mm and a standard deviation 47mm. Number of attempts for Adam is 3.

In order to find the probability of that mean distance from the center of the target for Tory is more than for Adam.

Normal distribution z =   (x-μ)/σ       x ~ (μ,σ)

When x = 108

z = (123 - 108)/47  [Adam's  distances from the center of the target are normally distributed with a mean of 108mm and a standard deviation of Adam is 31mm.]

= 0.3191

P(x > 108) = P(z > - 0.3191)

                = 1 - 0.3191   [since the probability of the normal curve is 1 and to find the area under tory mean is greater than the Adam mean only if we subtract 1 from z value]

                = 0.6887

Hence, Using normal distribution, the probability of that mean distance from the center of the target for Tory is more than for Adam is 0.6887.
