Answer:

Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>

Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

  • Style A shoes = x
  • Style B shoes = y

Forming equations :

  1. x = 2y - 24
  2. 66.95x + 84.95y = 17,652

Substitute the value of x from 1 in 2.

  • 66.95 (2y - 24) + 84.95y = 17,652
  • 133.90y - 1606.80 + 84.95y = 17,652
  • 218.85y = 19258.80
  • <u>y = 88</u>

<u />

Finding x :

  • x = 2(88) - 24
  • x = 176 - 24
  • <u>x = 152</u>

<u />

Solution :

  • Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>
  • Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>

What Values of X will make x2 (Exponent of 2) =16 true? HELPPPPPP!!
Lynna [10]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² = 16 ( take the square root of both sides )

\sqrt{x^2} = ± \sqrt{16} ← note plus or minus sign

x = ± 4

Since 4² = 4 × 4 = 16 and

(- 4)² = - 4 × - 4 = 16

You purchase a $100,000 life insurance policy for a $300 premium each year. If the probability of living is 0.999, find the expe
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The expected value for the insurance company is $200

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the expected value for the insurance company we would have to make the following calculation:

expected value for the insurance company=expected value live+expected value die

expected value live=Net gain*probability of living

expected value live=$300*0.999=$299.70

expected value die=Net gain*probability of die

expected value die=(-$100,000 + $300)*0.001

expected value die=$-99.70

Therefore, expected value for the insurance company=$299.70-$99.70

expected value for the insurance company=$200

The expected value for the insurance company is $200

What’s the answer for the photo
Otrada [13]
Be nice if we were sure of the question. I will guess that you want the hypotenuse.

c^2 = a^2 + b^2
a = 6 km
b = 6 km

c^2 = 36 + 36
c^2 = 72
c = sqrt(72)
c = sqrt(9 * 8)
c = 3*sqrt(8)
c = 3 * 2.83
c = 8.49
