The fraction of the furniture sold that are tables is given by 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

<h3>Equation</h3>

Let

  • number of chairs = x
  • Number of tables = y

Number of tables and chairs sold = 1/2(x + y)

= 1/2x + 1/2y

  • Fraction of chairs sold = 1/2x
  • Fraction of tables sold = 1/2y

Furniture remaining = 1/3(x + y)

Fraction of tables sold = 1/2y ÷ 1/3(x + y)

= 1/2y ÷ 1/3x + 1/3y

= 1/2y × 1 / (1/3x + 1/3y)

= 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

Therefore, the fraction of the furniture sold that are tables is given by 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 1) = 2x - 3 + 3x

3x - 3 = 2x - 3 + 3x

0 - 3 = 2x - 3

0 = 2x

2x = 0

x = 0 ÷ 2

Telemarketing. the probability that a call will reach a live person is 0.2. the calls are independent. (a) a telemarketer places
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Solution: Telemarketing. the probability that a call will reach a live person is 0.2. the calls are independent. (a) a telemarketer places 5 calls. what is the probability that none of them reaches a live person.

Answer: The given random experiment can be considered as binomial experiment with probability of success = 0.2 and number of trials = 5

Therefore, we have:

n=5,p=0.2,q=(1-p)=1-0.2=0.8

Let x be the number calls that reach to live person.

We have to find P(x=0)

Using the binomial probability distribution, we have:

P(x=0)=\binom{5}{0}0.2^{0} (1-0.2)^{5-0}

                 =1 \times 1 \times 0.8^{5}

                 =0.3277

Therefore, the probability that none of them reaches a live person is 0.3277
