That would be
300,000 + 5,000 + 500 + 1
Answer:
5 sets
Step-by-step explanation:
The average number of pieces per set is the ratio of the total number of pieces to the total number of sets.
Let x represent the number of 3-piece sets. Then the total number of pieces is ...
3x +5(5) +10(2) = 3x +45
The total number of sets is ...
x +5 +2 = x +7
We want the ratio of these numbers to be 5 pieces per set:
(3x +45)/(x +7) = 5
3x +45 = 5x +35 . . . . . multiply by (x+7)
10 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . subtract (3x+35)
5 = x . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
Divya owns 5 sets with 3 pieces.
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
Each 10-piece set has 5 more pieces than average, so the two of them total 10 more pieces than average.
Each 3-piece set has 2 fewer pieces than average. The total number of 3-piece sets must have a total of 10 fewer pieces than average in order to balance the excess of the 10-piece sets. That is, there must be 10/2 = 5 of the 3-piece sets to have a total lof 10 fewer pieces than average.
Altogether, the differences from average must total zero.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
Let X the random variable that represent the Student scores on exams given by a certain instructor, we know that X have the following distribution:
The sampling distribution for the sample mean is given by:
The deduction is explained below we have this:
Since the variance for each individual observation is then:
And then for this special case:
We are interested on this probability:
And we have already found the probability distribution for the sample mean on part a. So on this case we can use the z score formula given by:
Applying this we have the following result:
And using the normal standard distribution, Excel or a calculator we find this:
