Honestly, I find Mrs. Garcia's method easier to perform mentally. It hinges on how familiar you are with your multiples of 5. (5*15 = 75 is a multiplication I often use)

Melissa's approach involves calculating 5*20 = 100 and 5*9 = 45, then combines the 3-digit result 100 with the 2-digit result 45, yielding 145. Adding 45 to 00 is simple and doesn’t require carrying digits, thus the arithmetic is fairly straightforward.

Mrs. Garcia's technique involves computing 5*14 = 70 and 5*15 = 75, then summing these two-digit results. Many people may not readily recall that 5*15=75, which complicates forming that product. The addition of 70 and 75 requires a carrying operation, making the math somewhat more complex. The resulting total is 145.

(The rationale behind my preference for Mrs. Garcia's method is that I can achieve the final sum by simply doubling 7 tens, followed by adding 5. The only 3-digit number to remember mentally is the ultimate total.)

_____Subtraction introduces a slight complication, yet reshaping it as $5(30 -1) = $150 - 5 = $145 is possible.
Or, you may reframe it as $5(28 +1) = $140 +5 = $145.
Dividing an even number by 2 to find the product of 5 is straightforward when you append a zero.
  5*14 = 10*7 = 70
  5*28 = 10*14 = 140.

From -∞ to -4 the blue line is situated above the X axis, indicating that it is >0

Between -4 and -3, the blue line is below zero

Thus, the correct answer is: F(x) > 0 over the interval (-∞,-4)

Answer:

12 pencils per package.

Step-by-step explanation:

Details provided:

Ethan purchased 4 packages of pencils.

Number of Packages = 4

Number of pencils shared with friend = 8 pencils

Pencils remaining = 40 pencils

∴Total Number of Pencils = Pencils given to friend + Pencils remaining =

Total Pencils in each package =

We start with the following information:

p = probability = 0.12<span>
n = total number of students = 39 </span>

x = number of left-handers = 5<span>
u = mean = p * n = 4.68
σ = standard deviation = √(n*p*(1-p)) = √(39 * 0.12 * 0.88) = 2.03</span>

Finding the z score:

z = (x – u) / σ

<span> z = (5 – 4.68) / 2.03
</span>

z = 0.1576 = 0.16

<span>

</span>Applying standard tables for z gives the p value as:

p value = 0.5636 = 56.36%

 

Consequently, there is a 56.36% probability.

 

Answer: The mean and variance of Y are $0.25 and $6.19 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scenario is as follows: You and a friend participate in a game involving tossing a fair coin.

The sample space for tossing two coins is {TT, HT, TH, HH}

Let Y represent the earnings from one round of the game.

If both faces are heads, you win $1; therefore, P(Y=1)=P(TT)=

You win $6 if both faces are heads, so P(Y=6)=P(HH)=

If the faces do not match, you lose $3 which means P(Y=1)=P(TH, HT)=

To find the expected value to win: E(Y)=

Thus, the mean of Y: E(Y)= $0.25

Variance =

Therefore, variance of Y = $ 6.19
