Answer:

697 marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

We know:

Briley- 374 marbles

Joey- 374*4

Carson- (374*4)-799

Solve:

374*4= 1496 (This is how many Joey has)

1496-799= 697 (This is how many Carson has)

Select the correct answer. which expression is equivalent to the given expression? assume the denominator does not equal zero. a

Alexxandr [17]

If the denominator does not equal 0, the equivalent expression of $\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2}$ is $\frac{2y^{4}}{x^{4}}$ $\frac{x^{10} y^{14}}{729}$

<h3>How to determine the equivalent expression?</h3>

The expression is given as:

$\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2}$

Divide 14 by 7

$\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2} = \frac{2x^4y^6}{x^8y^2}$

Apply the law of indices

$\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2} = \frac{2y^{6-2}}{x^{8-4}}$

Evaluate the differences in the exponents

$\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2} = \frac{2y^{4}}{x^{4}}$

Hence, the equivalent expression of $\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2}$ is $\frac{2y^{4}}{x^{4}}$

Solve the equation for the indicated variable.<br>1. y= 3/8 (x+4) for x

madam [21]

Answer:

x=8y/3-4

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have to do to solve for X into re arrange the equation so that X is by itself on one side of the equation. To start we will divide both sides by 3/8 to move it away from the X side and we get

8y/3=x+4 then we will subtract both sides by 4 to get x all by itself

8y/3-4=x

I hope this helps and please don't hesitate to ask if there is anything still unclear!

A breakfast cereal producer makes its most popular product by combining just raisins and flakes in each box of cereal. The amoun

yarga [219]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.9192 = 91.92% probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g.

In a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

It 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, which is the percentile of X.

When two normal variables are added, the mean is the sum of the means while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

In this problem, the product is composed by flakes and raisins, and we have that:

$\mu_F = 370, \sigma_F = 24, \mu_R = 170, \sigma_R = 7$
