C) The cost of a laptop that depreciates at the rate of 8% every year
D) The height of the water in a tank when drained at the rate of 0.3 gallons per minute

Answer:

So 3 blue buckets and 4 white buckets were purchased

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by algebra

Let B = number of blue buckets bought

Let W = number of white buckets bought

Total buckets bought:
B + W = 7    (1)

Each blue bucket can hold 2 gallons of water
So B blue buckets can hold 2B gallons of water

Each white bucket can hold 5 gallons of water
So W white buckets can hold 5W gallons of water

Totally they can hold
2B + 5W gallons

We are given that they both can hold  26 gallons of water

So our second equation is
2B + 5W = 26   (2)

By eliminating one of the variable terms we can solve for the other variable term

Let's eliminate the term for variable B

Multiply equation (1) by 2

(1) x 2 ==> 2(B + W) = 2(7)

2B + 2W = 14    (3)

Subtract (3) from (2); B terms are same so they cancel out

(2) - (3):
2B + 5W = 26    [tex]\bold{-}[/tex]
2B + 2W = 14
---------------------
0    +  3W = 12
------------------------

3W = 12
W = 12/3

W = 4

Substitute W= 4 in equation 1
B + W = 7
=> B + 4 = 7

B = 3

So 3 blue buckets and 4 white buckets were purchased

The cost of petrol for the trip to UWC is R1.2384.

In general, cost refers to the amount of resources (usually money) that must be expended to produce or acquire something. It can be thought of as the value of the resources that are given up in order to obtain something else.

To calculate the cost of petrol for the trip to UWC, we need to know the distance traveled and the amount of fuel consumed.

Let's assume that the distance from Andrew's home to UWC is 20 kilometers (km). Then, the amount of fuel consumed for the trip is:

[tex]Fuel consumed = (0.0052 k/100 km) * 20 km = 0.00104 k[/tex]

where k stands for liters of petrol.

To convert the amount of fuel consumed to liters, we need to multiply by 100, since the fuel consumption rate is given in liters per 100 km:

[tex]Fuel consumed = 0.00104 k * 100 = 0.104 liters\\Fuel consumed = 0.00104 k * 100 = 0.104 liters[/tex]

Now we can calculate the cost of petrol for the trip:

[tex]Cost of petrol = (0.104 liters) * (R11.90/liter) = R1.2384[/tex]

Therefore, the cost of petrol for the trip to UWC is R1.2384.

Answer:

90 degrees then decreace that then turn that into a fraction

Step-by-step explanation:

Approximately 95.44% of the data falls within ±2 standard deviations of the mean in a normal distribution.

To find the percentage of the area under the normal curve that falls between ±2 standard deviations, we need to follow the following steps:

We need to know the mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ) of the normal distribution in question. If we assume a standard normal distribution (i.e., a normal distribution with mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1), then we can use a z-score table to find the percentage of area under the curve.

The z-score formula is:

z = (x - μ) / σ

For ±2 standard deviations, the values of x are μ ± 2σ. Therefore, the z-scores are:

z = (μ + 2σ - μ) / σ = 2

z = (μ - 2σ - μ) / σ = -2

A z-score table gives the percentage of area under the standard normal curve that falls to the left of a given z-score. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, the percentage of area to the right of a negative z-score is the same as the percentage of area to the left of the corresponding positive z-score.

Using a z-score table, we find that the percentage of area under the standard normal curve that falls to the left of z = 2 is 0.9772, or 97.72%. Therefore, the percentage of area under the curve that falls between ±2 standard deviations is:

97.72% - (100% - 97.72%) = 95.44%

This means that approximately 95.44% of the data falls within ±2 standard deviations of the mean in a normal distribution.

The probability that more than 8 hours are needed to grade all of the exams is about 52%

The probability of a standard normal distribution is the area under the curve of the normal distribution function within a specified interval.

Let X represent the random variable to grade an exam, and let Y represent the total time to grade all exams

The number of students = 50

Therefore;

Y = 50·X

The properties of the normal distribution indicates that we get;

E(Y) = E(50·X) = 50·E(X) = 50 × 9.7 = 485

Var(Y) = Var(50·X) = 50²·Var(X) = 50² × 1.92² = 9025

The standard deviation, SD(Y) = √(Var(Y)) = √(9025) = 95

The probability that more than 8 hours are needed can be found using the z-score of the normal distribution as follows;

8 hours = 480 minutes

Z = (480 - 485)/95 ≈ -0.0526

The probability obtained from a standard normal table, is therefore;

P(Z > -0.0526) = 1 - 0.48006 ≈ 0.52

The probability that more than 8 hours are needed to grade all students is therefore about 0.52 or 52%

Tomas can spend at most $118.50 each day. The inequality equation is 5.5x ≤ 651.75.

Tomas has $1,000 to spend on a vacation. His plane ticket costs $348.25. If he stays 5.5 days at his destination, how much can he spend each day? Write an inequality and then solve.

Let x be the amount that Tomas can spend each day. Since Tomas has to pay for the plane ticket, he will have $1,000 − $348.25 = $651.75 left to spend on the rest of the vacation.

Then, since he is staying for 5.5 days, the total amount he can spend would be 5.5x dollars. The inequality that represents the problem is as follows:

5.5x ≤ 651.75

To solve for x, divide both sides by 5.5

5.5x/5.5 ≤ 651.75/5.5x ≤ 118.5

Therefore, Tomas can spend at most $118.50 each day.

Two teaspoons of salt contains 7.16 grams of Na or 7160 milligrams of Na.

Given that a soup recipe calls for two teaspoons of salt. We need to find out how many milligrams of sodium is that?

1 teaspoon = 5.69 grams      1 gram = 1000 milligrams

2 teaspoons of salt = 2 * 5.69 grams = 11.38 grams of salt

11.38 grams of salt = 11.38 * 1000 milligrams = 11380 milligrams of salt

Now, we have to find out how much sodium (Na) is there in 11380 milligrams of salt. Sodium chloride is the chemical name for table salt (NaCl). So, the atomic mass of NaCl can be calculated as follows:

Na = 1Cl = 35.45

Atomic mass of NaCl = Na + Cl= 1 + 35.45= 36.45

So, 1 mole of NaCl = 36.45 grams         11380 milligrams of NaCl = 11380/1000 grams= 11.38/36.45 moles

Therefore, Moles of Na = 11.38/36.45 = 0.3121

mol Atomic mass of Na is 22.99 g/mol.

So, 1 mole of Na weighs = 0.3121 * 22.99= 7.16 grams

Therefore, 11380 milligrams of NaCl = 7.16 grams of Na. Hence, two teaspoons of salt contains 7.16 grams of Na or 7160 milligrams of Na.

When a 666-sided fair die is rolled, then the probability of rolling greater than 4 is  0.9940 or 99.40%.

Given that the die is fair and has 666 sides. So, each face of the die will have a probability of 1/666, i.e.,

p(1) = p(2) = ... = p(666) = 1/666.

The probability of rolling greater than 4 is P(roll greater than 4), which is the sum of the probabilities of rolling a 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, ..., 666. So,

P(roll greater than 4) = p(5) + p(6) + p(7) + ... + p(666)

P(roll greater than 4) = (1/666) + (1/666) + (1/666) + ... + (1/666)

(There are 661 terms)P(roll greater than 4) = 661(1/666)

P(roll greater than 4) = 0.9940 (rounded to four decimal places)

Hence, the probability of rolling greater than 4 is 0.9940 or 99.40%.

Alternatively, the probability of rolling greater than 4 is

   1 - P(roll less than or equal to 4)P(roll greater than 4)

= 1 - P(roll less than or equal to 4)P(roll greater than 4)

= 1 - (p(1) + p(2) + p(3) + p(4))P(roll greater than 4)

= 1 - (4/666)P(roll greater than 4)

= 1 - 0.0060P(roll greater than 4)

The z-score when x=108 is 3.1034. The z-score tells you that x=108 is 3.1034 standard deviations to the left of the mean.

Z-score is used in statistics to compare a score to a normal distribution. The z-score is a measure of how far away from the mean a value is in standard deviation units.

To find the z-score when x = 108, we use the formula:

z = (x - μ) / σ

where x = 108, μ = 153, and σ = 14.5.

Substituting these values, we get:

z = (108 - 153) / 14.5 = -3.1034

So the z-score when x = 108 is -3.1034.

The z-score tells us how many standard deviations away from the mean a particular value is. In this case, since the z-score is negative, we know that x = 108 is to the left of the mean.

The absolute value of the z-score tells us how many standard deviations away from the mean the value is. In this case, the absolute value of the z-score is approximately 3.1034, which means that x = 108 is approximately 3.1034 standard deviations to the left of the mean.
