Karen Sue has 6 pairs of jeans that
are ripped. If that represents 40%
of the total pairs of jeans in her
wardrobe, what is the total number
of pairs of jeans in her wardrobe?
Set up as a proportion and solve.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The total number of pairs of jeans in her wardrobe is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using proportions.

6 pairs of jeans represents 40% of the total.

The total is x. Using proportions:

[tex]\frac{6}{x} = \frac{40}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{x} = 0.4[/tex]

[tex]0.4x = 6[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{6}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]x = 15[/tex]

The total number of pairs of jeans in her wardrobe is 15.

The common ratio of the geometric sequence is r = 2.5

What is Geometric Progression?

A geometric progression is a sequence in which each term is derived by multiplying or dividing the preceding term by a fixed number called the common ratio.

The nth term of a GP is aₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

The general form of a GP is a, ar, ar2, ar3 and so on

Sum of first n terms of a GP is Sₙ = a(rⁿ-1) / ( r - 1 )

Given data ,

Let the terms of the GP be represented as A

Now , A = 1 , 2.5 , 6.25

where the common ratio = second term / first term

On simplifying , we get

r = 2.5 / 1

r = 2.5

Hence , the common ratio is r = 2.5

A set of four postcards costs $1.00. Single postcards cost $0.50. What is the least amount of money you
can spend to buy exactly 15 postcards?

Answers

Answer: 3 Sets of the 4 post cards and 3 of the single post cart sets.

Step-by-step explanation:

You buy 3 of the 4 post card set becuase that is the most you can get of those to get under 15 post cards.

You would now have 12 postcards now you have to buy 3 of the single set to get to 15 cards

You would buy the set of four postcards 4 times. This would equal $4 for 12 postcards. Then you would have to buy 3 individual postcards. Those 3 postcards would be $1.50
$4+$1.50=$5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Burger Queen a popular fast food restaurant among college students has undertaken a study to determine the weights of the hamburgers served in its new location in San Marcos, TX. Half pounders should weigh at least 8 ounces. The weight is assumed to be normally distributed. A sample of 500 hamburgers reveals the average precooked weight to be 8.02 ounces, with a standard deviation of .4 ounce.
1. What is the probability that a hamburger selected at random will weigh between 7.76 and 8.02 ounces?
2. What is the probability that a hamburger selected at random with less than 7.52 ounces?

Answers

Answer:

1. 0.2422 = 24.22% probability that a hamburger selected at random will weigh between 7.76 and 8.02 ounces

2. 0.1056 = 10.56% probability that a hamburger selected at random with less than 7.52 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

A sample of 500 hamburgers reveals the average precooked weight to be 8.02 ounces, with a standard deviation of .4 ounce.

This means that [tex]\mu = 8.02, \sigma = 0.4[/tex]

1. What is the probability that a hamburger selected at random will weigh between 7.76 and 8.02 ounces?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 8.02 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 7.76. So

X = 8.02

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{8.02 - 8.02}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.5

X = 7.76

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{7.76 - 8.02}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.2578

0.5 - 0.2578 = 0.2422

0.2422 = 24.22% probability that a hamburger selected at random will weigh between 7.76 and 8.02 ounces.

2. What is the probability that a hamburger selected at random with less than 7.52 ounces?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 7.52. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{7.52 - 8.02}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.1056

0.1056 = 10.56% probability that a hamburger selected at random with less than 7.52 ounces.

The probability of an event under the uniform distribution - random permutations. A class with n kids lines up for recess. The order in which the kids line up is random with each ordering being equally likely. There are two kids in the class named Celia and Felicity. Give an expression for each of the probabilities below as a function of n. Simplify your final expression as much as possible so that your answer does not include any expressions of the form (ab)(ab).
(a) What is the probability that Celia is first in line?
(b) What is the probability that Celia is first in line and Felicity is last in line?
(c) What is the probability that Celia and Felicity are next to each other in the line?

Answers

Answer:

a)

the probability that Celia is first in line is 1/n.

b)

the probability that Celia is first in line and Felicity is last in line is 1/n(n-1)

c)

the probability that Celia and Felicity are next to each other in the line is 2/n

 

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in question;

a) Celia is first in line?

the total ways are; n! to place n kids in n places in orderly fashion.

now, if Celia is the first kid, we have to order remaining n-1 kids

(n-1)! / n! = 1/n

therefore, the required probability is 1/n.  

b)  Celia is first in line and Felicity is last in line?

the total ways are; n! to place n kids in n places in orderly fashion,

now, if Celia is the first and Felicity is the last kid, we order the remaining n - 2 kids, which can be done in (n-2)!

(n-2)! / n! = 1 / n(n-1)

therefore, the required probability is 1 / n(n-1)

c) Celia and Felicity are next to each other in the line

the total ways are; n! to place n kids in n places in orderly fashion,

now, if Celia and Felicity as single object, so that they can be put together, we arrange n-1 objects which can be done in (n-1)! ways.

But also these 2 can change the place so in total there are 2(n-1)! ways.

2(n-1)! / n! = 2/n

Therefore, the required probability is 2/n
