Answer: the price of 1 yard of chicken wire is $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one yard of landscaping fabric.

Let y represent the cost of one yard of chicken wire.

Charlotte pays $24 for 3 yards of landscaping fabric and 6 yards of chicken wire. This means that

3x + 6y = 24 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Kami pays $30 for 6 yards of landscaping fabric and 3 yards of chicken wire. This means that

6x + 3y = 30 - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

18x + 36y = 144

18x + 9y = 90

Subtracting

27y = 54

y = 54/27 = 2

Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes

3x + 6×2 = 24

3x = 24 - 12 = 12

x = 12/3 = 4

Answer:

$2 per yard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price per yard of landscaping fabric be f and the price of chicken wire per yard be c.

3f + 6c = 24     Multiply this equation by  - 2:

-6f - 12c = -48 Also:

6f + 3c = 30

Adding the last 2 equations:

-9c = -18

c = 2.

Nadya [2.5K]
Using the data for each truck lets calculate, 

median for truck 1 - 511.5
median for truck 2 - 650.5

lets consider each statement 
A.medians for both trucks are the same - wrong 
median for 1 and 2 are 511.5 and 650.5 respectively 

B. the two trucks sold most number of tacos on 3rd day 
truck 1 sold 437 on day 3 but highest number it sold was 721 on day 1
truck 2 sold 426 on day 3 but highest number was 732 on day 6
therefore this statement too is wrong 

C.
truck 1 - range between maximum(721) and minimum(425) = 296
truck 2 - maximum (732) and minimum (426) difference = 306
the range between maximum and minimum in truck 2 is 306 thats greater than range between maximum and minimum in truck 1, that's 296
therefore this statement is correct

D.
total number of tacos for each truck - 
truck 1 - 5291
truck 2 - 6107
food truck 1 sold less than truck 2 therefore this statement too is wrong

The probability that a mature hen will lay an egg on a given day is 0.80. Hannah has 12 hens. What is the probability that 10 of
OleMash [197]

Answer: 0.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability formula :

P(X=x)=\ ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^x , where  x = Number of success , n= sample size , p= probability of success for each trial.

Let x = Number of hens lay eggs.

then, p=  0.80

n= 12

For x=10

P(x=10)=\ ^{12}C_{10}(0.80)^{10}(0.20)^{2}\\\\=\dfrac{12!}{10!2!}\times 0.1073741824\times 0.04\\\\\approx0.28

Hence, the required probability = 0.28
