The probability of a random sample of 80 households having a sample means a number of at least 2.55 televisions per household is 0.48173.

Given: Mean(μ) = 2.24, Standard deviation(σ) = 1.38, Sample size(n) = 1.28 and a random variable for X = 2.55

The formula to calculate the z-score from the mean. The standard deviation is:

z = (X - μ) / ( σ / √(n)) where,

z = z-score,

X = random variable,

μ = mean,

σ = standard deviation, and

n = sample size

Let's solve the given question:

We have,

Mean(μ) = 2.24,

Standard deviation(σ) = 1.38,

Sample size(n) = 80, and

a random variable for X = 2.55

As it is given sample means at least 2.55 so we have to find the Z(x ≥ 2.55).

Therefore, Z(x ≥ 2.55) = (2.55 - μ) / ( σ / √(n))

Substituting all values we get:

Z(x ≥ 2.55) = (2.55 - 2.24) / ( 1.38 / √(80))

Z(x ≥ 2.55) = 0.01 / 0.21819

Z(x ≥ 2.55) = 0.48173

Hence the probability of a random sample of 40 households having a sample means a number of at least 2.55 televisions per household is 0.48173.

The percentage of Earth's freshwater is found in lakes, rivers, and streams as surface water is 69%. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

We need to find the percentage of Earth's freshwater is found in lakes, rivers, and streams as surface water.

Percentage is defined as a given part or amount in every hundred. It is a fraction with 100 as the denominator and is represented by the symbol "%".

Over 69 percent of the fresh water on Earth is found in icecaps and glaciers, and just over 30 percent is found in ground water. Only about 0.3 percent of our fresh water is found in the surface water of lakes, rivers, and swamps.

The percentage of Earth's freshwater is found in lakes, rivers, and streams as surface water is 69%. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

The equation of the line is y = -0.35x – 3.55

Given,

The gradient of the line between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).

Since the line passes through the points (7,-6) and (3,8),  

• (x₁, y₁) = (7,-6) and

• (x₂, y₂) = (3,8).

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).

m = (8 - (-6))/(3 - 7).

m = (8 + 6)/ -4

m = 14/-4

m = -3.5

The equation of the line passing through the point (x₁, y₁) in point-slope form is given by

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) where

• m = gradient =- 0.35 and

• (x₁, y₁) = (7, -6)

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-6) = -0.35(x - 7)

y + 6 =-0.35 (x - 7)

y = (-0.35x + 2.45 – 6)

y = -0.35x – 3.55

So, the equation of the line is y = -0.35x – 3.55

There are 23 tickets which are purchased for children and 9 tickets are purchased for adults which cost total $148.

It is given in the question that 32 tickets are purchased by group which cost total $148.
Let the number of children of the group who are entering the zoo be x. Then the number of adults will be 32- x

Now cost of one ticket for adult = $7.50

Total amount spent on adult tickets = 7.50 × (32-x)

Similarly, cost of one ticket for child= $3.50

Total amount spent on children tickets = 3.50 × x =3.5x

Total amount spent by group on tickets =  $148
⇒ 7.5 × (32-x) + 3.5x = 148
⇒ 240 - 7.5x + 3.5x = 148
⇒ 7.5x - 3.5x = 240 - 148
⇒ 4x = 92
⇒ x = 23
Children = 23
Adults = 32-x = 32-23 = 9
Hence, 23 tickets are purchased for children and 9 tickets are purchased for adults.

16 cups of water using 1/2 cup of measuring cup will fill a gallon of water.

To find the number of 1/2 cups that will fill a gallon, we simply need to know how many cups are in one gallon.

[tex]1cup = 0.0625 gallon[/tex]

This implies that

[tex]\frac{1}{2} cup = 0.03125 gallon[/tex]

Let's equate this and find how many cups are in one gallon.

[tex]\frac{1}{2} cup = 0.03125 gallon\\x cup = 1 gallon\\[/tex]

cross multiply both sides and make x the subject of formula

Volume of a pyramid is calculated using the same basic formula as that of a cone: volume = (1/3) × base area × height, where height is the distance between the base and the apex. Then the height is 6 feet.

Using the equation volume = base area height / 3, one may calculate the volume of a regular square pyramid. Keep in mind that the base area is equal to the base edge length squared.

A polygonal base and an apex come together to form a polyhedron known as a pyramid. Volume of a pyramid is calculated using the same basic formula as that of a cone: volume = (1/3) × base area × height, where height is the distance between the base and the apex.

The volume of a square pyramid exists found by multiplying the area of the base by the height divided by 3.

32 = 4² × h/3

32 = 16 × h/3

Multiply both sides by 3

96 = 16 × h

Divide both sides by 16

H = 96/16

The total amount due will be equal to $6.24.

This question can be solved by converting the situation into form of an equation. An equation may be defined as an expression which consists of numbers, variables related to each other by arithmetic expressions. The solution of equation often referred to as the variables for which the equation must be solved, are the values of the unknowable variables that satisfy the equality. The cost of video game is given as $12.98, and tax is equal to $0.78, and he paid an amount of $20. let the change left be x.

Total amount = cost of game + tax + change

$20 = $12.98 + $0.78 + x

$20 = $13.76 + x

Addition of linear functions:
Addition of two individual functions, a(x) and b(x); linearly, results in the formation of the functional addition, c(x) of the two functions, such as:
c(x) = a(x) + b(x) = (a+b)(x) – (i)
The addition of the functions strictly restricts to simple linear addition without any pre-defined constraints.

Given, f(x) = 2x - 1, g(x) = 3x and h(x) = x² + 1
Using the available formula in (i), we get
f(x) + h(x) = (f + h)(x) = (2x - 1) + (x² + 1) = x² + 2x = x(x + 2), which is a quadratic equation.
