The Chess Club has 8 members. A new captain will be chosen by randomly selecting the name of one of the members. Leah and Luke both want to be captain. Leah says the chance that she will be chosen as captain is LaTeX: \frac{1}{2}1 2 because she is either chosen for captain or she is not. Luke says the chance that he is chosen is LaTeX: \frac{1}{8}1 8 . Do you agree with Leah or Luke?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Agree with Luke!

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chess Club has 8 members

Total number of outcomes = 8

A new captain will be chosen by randomly selecting the name of one of the members

Number of favorable outcome (captain) = 1

Probability  = Number of Favorable outcome / Total number of outcomes

Probability = 1 / 8

Agree with Luke!

Answer 2

I don't agree with Leah.

I agree with Luke because.... The Chess Club has 8 members

Total number of outcomes = 8

A new captain will be chosen by randomly selecting the name of one of the members

Number of captains that will be chosen = 1

Probability  = Number of Favorable outcome / Total number of outcomes

Probability = 1 / 8

1. an=5n+11

2. an=5n+1

3. an=21-5n

4. an=6n+1

Answers

Answer:

2)an = 5n + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic series.

6 , 11 , 16, 21 ,.....

First term = [tex]a_{1}[/tex] = 6

Common difference = d = second term - first term

                                = 11 - 6 = 5

nth term = [tex]a_{1}+(n-1)*d[/tex]

             = 6 + (n - 1) * 5

            =  6 + n * 5 - 1*5

            = 6 +5n - 5

Melissa earns $180 a week selling shoes plus a commission of $10 each pair of shoes she sells. How
many pairs of shoes must she sell to make a minimum of $500 a week?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

10X+ 180= 500

10X= 500-180

10X= 320. .....divine both sides by 10 to solve for X

X = 32.

check

10(32)+180 = 500

320+180 =500

500 =500...confirmed

why are all sequences descrete in math

Answers

Answer:

If you collect all the terms of the sequence into a set, that set will always be discrete, because there's only countably many of them, and every interval is uncountable. So you could move outside of natural numbers to real numbers, but then it's no longer a sequence, it's just a function.

3f^4g^3 x 8fg^4 / (6f^2g^3)^2 how do you do this? I know the answer is 2/3fg but how do you get 0.666... into that fraction form?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  0.666... = 6/9 = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The repeating decimal 0.666... can be turned to a fraction as follows.

Let x represent the value of the number. Then 10x is ...

  10x = 10(0.666...) = 6.666...

Subtracting x gives ...

  10x -x = 6.666... - 0.666... = 6.000...

  9x = 6

Dividing by 9 and simplifying, we have ...

  x = 6/9 = 2/3

__

It can be worthwhile to remember that  1/9 = 0.111... repeating.

Then 3/9 = 1/3 = 3(0.111...) = 0.333... repeating

and 6/9 = 2/3 = 6(0.111...) = 0.666... repeating

Most calculators will round the last digit of 2/3 so that it is a 7. So, you may see ...

  2 ÷ 3 = 0.6666667 or 0.66666666667

or something similar, depending on your calculator. It is up to you to recognize this as probably a representation of 2/3. Some calculators will display the number as a fraction, so you don't have to guess.

_____

Additional comment

A similar method is used to convert repeating decimals of other lengths to fractions. In general you multiply by 10^n, where n is the number of repeating digits. Then proceed as above: subtract x, divide by the coefficient of x. You will find you are always dividing by a number that has as many 9's as there are repeating digits.

Annual sales for a fast food restaurant are $650,000 and are increasing at a rate of 4% per year. What is the annual sales after 7 years?

Answers

Answer:

Around $855,355.66

Step-by-step explanation:

In these type of problems, you'd use the following equation

[tex]Initial Value * (percentage)^{x}[/tex]

Since the revenue's increasing by 4% every year, you'd plug 104/100 in the percentage box. X is the ammount of times the percentage is applied, so it would be 7, since we're finding the sales after 7 years. Finally, 650000 goes into the initial value and yeah. After calculating, you'll get around $855,355.66

Can someone please help me? 3t + 7 = -8

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at 3%2At%2B7=%28+-8+%29.

Moved these terms to the left  %28 +8+ %29

It becomes 3%2At%2B7%2B _green%28+8+%29=0.

Look at 3%2At%2B_red%28+7+%29%2_red%28+8+%29=0.

Added fractions or integers together

It becomes 3%2At% 2B % 28+15+%29=0.

Look at highlight_red%28+3%2At%2B15+%29=0.

Solved linear equation %28+3%2At%2B15=0+%29 equivalent to 3*t+15 =0

It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.

Result: 0=0

This is an equation! Solutions: t=-5.

Answer: t= -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3t+7=-8

subtract 7 from 7 and 8 (this cancels out the 7)

left with 3t = -1

divide 3 into 3t and -1

the 3 in 3t is canceled out, leaving us with t, therefore t= -1/3

A store manager purchased hoodies for $24.99 apiece. He sells the hoodies for $32. What is the markup percentage?

Answers

Given:

A  store manager purchased hoodies for $24.99 apiece.

He sells the hoodies for $32.

To find:

The markup percentage.

Solution:

We have,

Cost price (C.P.) = $24.99

Selling price (S.P.) = $32

We know that,

[tex]\text{Markup percentage}=\dfrac{S.P.-C.P.}{C.P.}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Markup percentage}=\dfrac{32-24.99}{24.99}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Markup percentage}=\dfrac{7.01}{24.99}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Markup percentage}=\dfrac{701}{24.99}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Markup percentage}\approx 28.05[/tex]

Therefore, the markup percentage is 28.05%.

Peter makes a base monthly salary of $2,500. As a vendor, he must sell $15,000 worth of items per month. He also makes an 18% commission on all sales beyond the monthly quota. If Peter sold $24,600 worth of items this month, what is his total salary for the month including base salary and commission to the nearest dollar?

Answers

Answer:

Monthly salary= $4,228

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed salary= $2,500

Sales commission= 10%

Sales= $24,600

To calculate the monthly salary, we need to use the following formula:

Monthly salary= fixed income + commission

Commission= (24,600 - 15,000)*0.18

Commission= $1,728

Monthly salary= 2,500 + 1,728

Monthly salary= $4,228

(x-10)(x+2)=0

x=10, x=-2

Answer:

x = −2 or x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 3)(x - 5) = 35

x^2 − 8x + 15 = 35

x^2 − 8x + 15 − 35 = 35 − 35

x^2 − 8x − 20 = 0

(x+2)(x−10) = 0

x + 2 = 0 or x − 10 = 0

x = −2 or x = 10
