Conclusion:

Please pay attention.

Detailed explanation:

Part A: 250=70x+50

Part B: 75w+35+5=250

Part C: Part A omits expenses incurred for washing cars, whereas Part B includes these costs, which are deducted from the car wash fee.

Conclusion:

Please refer to the explanation provided.

Detailed explanation:

Starting with these facts:

Total revenue = $250

Fee charged = $70 per car

Tips received = $50

Equation 1 representing the above:

(Fee per car × number of cars) + tips = total revenue

Let the number of cars be c.

Thus, we have:

$70c + $50 = $250

Part B:

Total revenue = $250

Fee charged = $75 per car

Tips received = $35

Supplies cost per car washed = $5

Equation 2:

(Fee per car × number of cars) + tips - (supplies cost × number of cars) = total revenue

$75c + $35 - $5c = $250

$70c + $35 = $250

Part C:

Equation 1 does not factor in costs associated with washing the car, while equation 2 does incorporate costs, which are deducted from the amount charged per car. Additionally, tips in equation 1 total $50 compared to a $35 fee in equation 2.

Libby sold $60 worth of vegetables at the farmer's market. Jess sold 3/4ths of what Libby sold. Stephanie sold 1/3rd of what Jes
zzz [12365]

Answer:

$120.

Step-by-step breakdown:

Libby sold $60 worth of vegetables at the farmer's market.

Jess sold 3/4 of what Libby sold, so let's calculate that: 3/4 of 60.

\text{Jess sold}=60\times \frac{3}{4}

\text{Jess sold}=15\times 3

\text{Jess sold}=45

Thus, Jess made $45.

Now, Stephanie sold one-third of Jess's total, necessitating the calculation of one-third of 45.

\text{Stephanie sold}=45\times \frac{1}{3}

\text{Stephanie sold}=15

This means Stephanie sold $15 worth of vegetables.

Putting together Libby's, Jess's, and Stephanie's sales, we arrive at the collective total earned by all three.

\text{The total money earned by Libby, Jess and Stephanie}=60+45+15

\text{The total money earned by Libby, Jess and Stephanie}=120

Consequently, their total sales amount to $120.

The blood platelet counts of a group of women have a​ bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 247.9 and a standard deviation of
PIT_PIT [12445]

Answer:

A) The estimated proportion of women whose platelet counts fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean, or between 118.5 and 377.3, is 95%.

B) The estimated percentage of women with platelet counts ranging from 53.8 to 442.0 is 99.7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Provided data:

mean;μ = 247.9

standard deviation;σ = 64.7

A) We seek to find the estimated percentage of women with platelet counts within 2 standard deviations from the mean, which translates to values between 118.5 and 377.3.

Based on the attached image, the empirical curve indicates that the likelihood within 1 standard deviation of the mean is (34% + 34%) = 68%.

In contrast, the likelihood within 2 standard deviations from the mean is (13.5% + 34% + 34% + 13.5%) = 95%

Therefore, the estimated percentage of women having platelet counts within 2 standard deviations of the mean, or ranging from 118.5 to 377.3, equals 95%

B) Next, we want to determine the estimated percentage of women with platelet counts between 53.8 and 442.0.

The values of 53.8 and 442.0 correspond to 3 standard deviations from the mean.

Let’s verify that.

Since mean;μ = 247.9

standard deviation;σ = 64.7;

μ = 247.9

σ = 64.7

μ + 3σ = 247.9 + 3(64.7) = 442

Also;

μ - 3σ = 247.9 - 3(64.7) = 53.8

From the attached empirical curve, it can be seen that at 3 standard deviations from the mean, the probability percentage is;

(2.35% + 13.5% + 34% + 34% + 13.5% + 2.35%) = 99.7%
