A father is three times as old as his son, and the sum of their age is 76 years old. How old is the son?

Answers

Answer 1
Father's age = 3x

Son's age = x

3x + x = 76

4x = 76

x = 76/4

x = 19

The son is 19 yeats old.
Answer 2

Age of son = 19 years

Age of father = 57 years

What is ratio?

The ratio is defined as the comparison of two quantities of the same units that indicates how much of one quantity is present in the other quantity.

Given,

A father is three times as old as his son

Sum of their age is 76 years

Let age of son is x, age of father = 3x

x + 3x = 76

4x = 76

x = 76/4

x = 19

Age of son = 19 years

Age of father = 3×19 = 57 years

Hence, 19 years is the age of son and

57 years is the age of father.

​if a population of scores is normally distributed, has a mean of 45 and a standard deviation of 6, the most extreme 5% of the scores lie beyond the score(s) of _________.
a. 35.13
c. 56.76 and 33.24
b. 45.99
d. 45.99 and 35.13

Answers

Final answer:

To find the most extreme 5% of normally distributed scores with a mean of 45 and a standard deviation of 6, we look for scores beyond the z-score cut-offs corresponding to 2.5% and 97.5%. The z-score around 1.96 gives us two scores: 56.76 on the high end and 33.24 on the low end, indicating that answer 'c' is correct.

Explanation:

To determine the most extreme 5% of the scores in a normally distributed population with a mean of 45 and a standard deviation of 6, we need to find the z-score that corresponds to the tails of the distribution where the cumulative area is either less than 2.5% or greater than 97.5% (since 5% is split into two tails of the distribution).

Using a standard normal distribution table or a calculator, the z-score that corresponds to the upper 97.5% is typically about 1.96 (or sometimes 1.645 for a one-tailed test). To find the actual scores corresponding to these z-scores, we use the formula for transforming a z-score into an actual value which is:
X = μ + (z • σ)

For the upper extreme:
X = 45 + (1.96 • 6) = 56.76

For the lower extreme:
X = 45 - (1.96 • 6) = 33.24

Thus, the most extreme 5% of the scores lie beyond scores of 56.76 and 33.24. Therefore, the correct answer is c. 56.76 and 33.24.

in each variety pack of fruit juice, there are 3 voxes of apple juice, 2 boxes of grape juice, and 1 box of orange juice. In a display in the store, there are 16 cases of juice with 8 variety packs in each case. How many boxes of juice are in the display?

Answers

384 boxes of juice are in the display because if they are 3 in each pack and each case has 8 then just do 8 * 3 which is 24. But since there are 16 cases you would take 24 and times that by 16 which would equal 384, the total number of juice boxes. I hope this helps!

The total number boxes of juice are 768 in the display.

We have been given that in each variety pack of fruit juice, there are 3 voxes of apple juice, 2 boxes of grape juice, and 1 box of orange juice.

In a display in the store, there are 16 cases of juice with 8 variety packs in each case therefore,

Each variety pack of fruit juice = 3 + 2 + 1 = 6 juice

The base of the building is an equilateral triangle 180 meters on each side. The height of the prism is 25m. Find the height, of the triangular base.

Answers

The height of the triangular base is  155.46 m.

To find the height of the equilateral triangle base of the prism, we'll first determine the height of one of its constituent triangles.

The height ( h ) of an equilateral triangle is given by [tex]\( h = \sqrt{3}/2 \times \text{side length} \).[/tex]

Calculate the height of one triangle:

[tex]\[ h = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \times 180 \, \text{m} = \frac{\sqrt{3} \times 180}{2} = \frac{180\sqrt{3}}{2} = 90\sqrt{3} \, \text{m} \][/tex]

Calculate the total height of the prism:

The height of the prism is given as 25 m.

Calculate the total height:

Total height = height of one triangle + height of the prism

[tex]\[ \text{Total height} = 90\sqrt{3} \, \text{m} + 25 \, \text{m} = 90\sqrt{3} + 25 \, \text{m} = 155.46 \, \text{m} \][/tex]

So, the height of the triangular base is  155.46 m

If the population decreases with a constant rate of change and the decrease is 7% in the first year, what will the town's population be in 6 years? (round to the nearest person)

Answers

Given that the population of a town today is 33,000 people.

If the population decreases with a constant rate of change and the decrease is 7% in the first year.

The decrease in the population of the town in the first year is given by 0.07 x 33,000 = 2,310

The decrease in the population of the town in 6 years is given by 2,310 x 6 = 13,860

Therefore, in 6 years, the town's population will be 33,000 - 13,860 = 19,140

A correlation coefficient of .89 indicates that _____.

Answers

Final answer:

The correlation coefficient indicates the strength of the relationship between variables. The closer it is to 1, the stronger the relationship. If it is 0, there is no relationship.

Explanation:

The number portion of the correlation coefficient indicates the strength of the relationship. The closer the number is to 1 (be it negative or positive), the more strongly related the variables are, and the more predictable changes in one variable will be as the other variable changes. The closer the number is to zero, the weaker the relationship, and the less predictable the relationships between the variables becomes. For instance, a correlation coefficient of 0.9 indicates a far stronger relationship than a correlation coefficient of 0.3. If the variables are not related to one another at all, the correlation coefficient is 0.

Answers

Now we need to find the percentage of scores that are below -1.75. To do this, we need to look -1.75 up in the normal distribution table (your teacher should have given you one or there should be one in your textbook). If we do this, we find that approximately 4% of scores are below -1.75. z = (X - M)/S, where X is a score, M is the mean and S is the standard deviation. In your case, we have z = (1 - 2.4)/.8. This gives us a z-score of -1.75.

Answers

3 apple, 2 blueberry, 5 cherry, 6 key lime.....for a total of 16 pies

what percent of the pies were apple...

3/16 = 0.1875 = 18.75% <=

Answer:

18.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Potts, the college Pastry Chef baked pies for the student fundraiser.

He baked apple pies = 3

Blueberry pies = 2

Cherry pies = 5

Key lime pies = 6

We have to calculate the percentage of the apple pies.

Total number of pies that he baked =  3 + 2 + 5 + 6 = 16 pies

Percentage of Apple pies = [tex]\frac{3}{16}[/tex] × 100

                                           = 0.1875 × 100

                                           = 18.75%

18.75% was apple pie.

What is the approximate length of the diameter,d?

b. 14 in

Answer:

The diameter of the circle is 14in

Step-by-step explanation:

There is an equation that says: If you have the circumference (C) of a circle you can get the Diameter (d):

d=C/π(constant number)

In the problem you have C=44 in

Then:

π=3,1416

d=44in/3,1416

The sum of three numbers is 142. The first number is 8 less than the second. The third number is 4 times the second. What are the numbers?

Answers

x = 1st number, y = 2nd number, z = 3rd number

x + y + z = 142
x = y - 8
z = 4y

y - 8 + y + 4y = 142
6y - 8 = 142
6y = 142 + 8
6y = 150
y = 150/6
y = 25 <=== the 2nd number

x = y - 8
x = 25 - 8
x = 17 <== the 1st number

z = 4y
z = 4(25)
z = 100 <=== 3rd number
