Answer:

$80,000

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Define the variables</u>:

Let x =  "fish-flavored" chicken company investment (in dollars)

Let y = spray-on vitamins company investment (in dollars)

If Allen invested a total of $100,000:

⇒ x + y = 100000

Given:

  • 3% profit on "fish-flavored" chicken investment
  • 1% profit on pray-on vitamins investment
  • Total profit = $2,600

⇒ 0.03x + 0.01y = 2600

Rewrite the first equation to make y the subject:

⇒ y = 100000 - x

Substitute into the second equation and solve for x:

⇒ 0.03x + 0.01(100000 - x) = 2600

⇒ 0.03x + 1000 - 0.01x = 2600

⇒ 0.02x + 1000 = 2600

⇒ 0.02x = 1600

⇒ x = 80000

Therefore, Allen invested $80,000 in the "fish-flavored" chicken company.

on the last night of scout camp Chris his wife Joe and the 11 other adults sit down for supper along one side of a long rectangu
yawa3891 [41]

Based on the information provided, it follows that there are 1,728 possible seating arrangements.

<h3>How can we find the number of possible arrangements?</h3>

To find the number of arrangements in this problem situation we must take into account the following key factors:

  • Chris only has 1 possible seat.
  • Jo has 2 possible seats.
  • Dave, Alex, and Barb have 3 possible seats.
  • Gareth, Fred, and Eddie have 3 possible seats.
  • There are 4 other adults who do not have a preference in seats but have the possibility of using 4 seats.

According to the above, we must use the factorization of these numbers to find out the number of possibilities we have to seat them.

<h3>What is factoring?</h3>

A factorial function is a mathematical tool that is characterized by using the exclamation mark “!” behind a number. The factorial function is used to express that the number accompanied by the symbol must be multiplied by all positive integers between that number and 1.

In accordance with the above, in the problem situation that we must solve, we must use the factorial function with the possibilities of:

  • Dave, Alex and Barb: 3! = 3 × 2 × 1 = 6
  • Gareth, Fred and Eddie: 3! = 3 × 2 × 1 = 6
  • Other 4 adults: 4! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 24

Subsequently, to calculate the number of total possibilities of the entire group we must multiply the possibilities of each group and individual as shown below:

  • Number of possibilities = 1 × 2 × 6 × 6 × 24
  • Number of possibilities = 1728

There are 100 people in a sport centre.
sleet_krkn [62]

By definition of complement,

Pr[not P | G and T] = 1 - Pr[P | G and T]

and by definition of conditional probability,

Pr[not P | G and T] = 1 - Pr[P and G and T] / Pr[G and T]

Pr[not P | G and T] = 1 - (16/100) / (33/100)

Pr[not P | G and T] = 1 - 16/33

Pr[not P | G and T] = 17/33
