her chance of buying both?

Question 2 Of 40Elena Is Going To A Farmer's Market For Fresh Produce. She Has Two Markets Tochoose From

Answers

Answer 1

To maximize the chances of buying cherries as well as asparagus, Elena should choose the North market. There is 0.44 probability of both cherries and asparagus.

What is probability?

"Probability is a branch of mathematics which deals with finding out the likelihood of the occurrence of an event."

Formula of the probability of an event A is:

P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

where,  n(A) is the number of favorable outcomes,

n(S) is the total number of events in the sample space.

What are independent events?

"These are two events wherein the occurrence of one event does not affect the occurrence of another event"

Probability of independent events:

If A, B are independent events then their combine probability is given by,

P(A ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B)

For given example,

Let P(A) represents the probability of cherries available at market and P(B) represents the probability of asparagus available at market.

The availability of cherries and the availability of asparagus are

independent of each other

So, the probability of buying cherries as well as asparagus from the North market would be,

⇒ P = P(A) × P(B)

⇒ P = 0.8 × 0.55

⇒ P = 0.44                                     ....................(1)

And the probability of buying cherries as well as asparagus from the South market would be,

⇒ P = P(A) × P(B)

⇒ P = 0.65 × 0.6

⇒ P = 0.39                                    .......................(2)

From (1) and (2),

To maximize the chances of buying cherries as well as asparagus, Elena should choose the North market. There is 0.44 probability of both cherries and asparagus.

The mean age of 11 women in an office is 31 years old.
The mean age of 6 men in an office is 29 years old.
What is the mean age (nearest year) of all the people in the office?

Answers

Answer: 30.2

Explanation:

The mean is calculated by taking the sum of the values and dividing by the count.

For instance, for the 6 women, with the mean being 31, we can see that the ages summed to 186:

186

6

=

31

And we can do the same for the men:

116

4

=

29

And now we can combine the sum and count of the men and women to find the mean for the office:

186

+

116

10

=

302

10

=

30.2

Step-by-step explanation:

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  30

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of the ages of the 11 women is 11·31 = 341. The total of the ages of the 6 men is 6·29 = 174. Then the total of the ages of all 17 people in the office is ...

  341 + 174 = 515

and their average age is ...

  515/17 ≈ 30.294 ≈ 30

The mean age of the people in the office, to the nearest year, is 30.

y-5x-2 ... Show your work.

C) (-4; 6)
D) (4;18)
no links and pls show ur work

Answers

I’m not sure if you mistyped but if you meant y=5x-2 then here is your answer:

So the equation is y=mx + b

-2 is your b meaning that it is your y intercept so you can plot it on the y axis (0,-2)

Then your slope is 5. Since your slope is positive, in order to go to the left side you can change both the denominator and numerator into negatives. So 5/1 = -5/-1

Slope = rise/run

So each time you go down 5, you go to the left once. So if you go to -4, then you will have to go down 4 times as well so 4 x 5 = 20, so you go down 20 points. You are already at (0,-2) so if you go down 20 points then you are at (-4,-22)

Therefore the correct answer is (-4,-22)

Answer: Choice C) $31,045.50

========================================================

Work Shown:

p = number of items sold

855 = cost per item

855p = total revenue = total amount of money earned

6780 = total expenses

profit = revenue - expenses = 855p - 6780

profit = 855p - 6780

------------------

Now plug in p = 250

profit = 855p - 6780

profit = 855*250 - 6780

profit = 213,750 - 6,780

profit = 206,970 dollars

This is the profit the company makes in one month if p = 250 items are sold.

The CEO earns 15% of this profit, so,

15% of 206,970 = 0.15*(206,970) = 31,045.50

The CEO earns $31,045.50

checking: at t = 0 $2000 (purchase price)

at t = 1 yr $2000 - 0.25*$2000 = $2000 - $500 = $1500

at t = 2 yr $1500 - 0.25*$1500 = $1500 - $375 = $1125

Classify the object with the given side lengths as acute, obtuse, right, or not a triangle.
16, 21, 28
Right
Acute
Obtuse
Not a triangle

Answers

Answer:

We have to first see that the given lengths makes a triangle or not by using a+b > c in which a,b and c are

length of sides of a triangle lets check out

16 + 21 = 37 > 28

21 + 28 = 49 > 16

16+ 28 = 44 > 21

As because the statement fits correct in the lengths given so its a triangle

So we can say that the triangle is scalene by means of measurements

but cant be a right angle as by taking the pythagorean triplet

= a^2 + b ^ 2 = c^2

lets see if a=16, b = 21 and c = 28

So a^2 + b^2

= 256 + 441

= 697

but c^2

= 28^2 = 784

As 441 =/= 784

So The triangle lengths cant be a right angled triangle

So 1/2 of possibility is the traingle acute and 1/2 of the possibilty that the triangle is obtuse

Now you can find the correct triangle on the basis of acute or obtuse angle by drawing with given length of sides of triangle

Once again we are looking at inscribed angles and intercepted arcs. Like stated previously an inscribed angle is equal to half its intercepted arc

That being said we want to create an equation to solve for x

The equation would be 7x + 5 = 192/2

We now solve for x

step 1 simplify

192/2=96

now we have 7x + 5 = 96

step 2 subtract 5 from each side

5 - 5 cancels out

96 - 5 = 91

7x = 91

step 3 divide each side by 7

7x/7 = x

91 / 7 = 13

we're left with x = 13
