CATERING TOTAL COST  F(X) = 10X + 300

TOTAL REQUIRED                       14X

                                                  10X + 300 = 14X

                                                   10X - 14X = -300

                                                            -4X = -300

                                                              4X = 300

                                                                X= 300/4

                                                                 X=75  <------------------SOLUTION

Answer:

Let x be the number of person and y be the total cost per person.

As per the statement:

A catering company charges a $300 set up fee and $10 per person for a lunch buffet.

"$10 per person" translated to 10x

then;

Total cost per person = 10x+300

It is also given that: total cost per person is $14.

⇒14x=10x+300

Subtract 10x from both sides we have;

4x = 300

Divide both sides by 4 we have;

x = 75

Therefore, 75 number of people must attend the lunch so that the total cost per person is $14

It’s dividing by a factor of 10. So 30 divided by 10=3. You then do the same thing for the height. 300 divided by 10=30. The answer is 30.

1. Write a rule that will take the triangle to a congruent triangle. Write your rule as (x,y)
olga nikolaevna [1]

Transforming a shape involves changing the size and/or the location of the shape.

  • The rule that will take the triangle to a congruent triangle is (x,y) \to (x,-y)
  • The rule that will take the triangle to a figure that is similar is (x,y) \to (0.5x,0.5y).
  • The rule that will take the triangle to a figure that is not similar or congruent is (x,y) \to (0.5x,2y).

<h3>Rigid transformation</h3>

When a shape is transformed by a rigid transformation, then the image of the shape will be congruent to the original shape.

An example of a rigid transformation is a reflection over the x-axis; and the rule is:

(x,y) \to (x,-y)

So, a rule that will take the triangle to a congruent triangle is (x,y) \to (x,-y)

<h3>Nonrigid transformation</h3>

When a shape is transformed by a nonrigid transformation, then the image of the shape will not be congruent to the original shape, however the original shape and the transformed shape would be similar

An example of a nonrigid transformation is a dilation by a scale factor od 0.5; and the rule is:

(x,y) \to (0.5x,0.5y)

So, a rule that will take the triangle to a figure that is similar is (x,y) \to (0.5x,0.5y)

However, if the x and y coordinates of the shape are dilated by different scale factors, then the resulting shape would neither be similar nor be congruent to the original shape.

A rule that will take the triangle to a figure that is not similar or congruent is (x,y) \to (0.5x,2y).

The grade appeal process at a university requires that a jury be structured by selecting six individuals randomly from a pool of
romanna [79]

Answer: a) \dfrac{3}{874}

b) \dfrac{30}{3059}

c) \dfrac{3575}{12236}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Number of students : 11

Number of faculty members : 13

Total persons : 11+13=24

Total number of ways to structure a jury of six people from a group of 24 people :-

^{24}C_{6}=\dfrac{24!}{6!(24-6)!}=134596

a) Number of ways of selecting a jury of all​ students :-

^{11}C_{6}=\dfrac{11!}{6!(11-6)!}=462

Then , the probability of selecting a jury of all​ students :-

\dfrac{462}{134596}=\dfrac{3}{874}

b) Number of ways of selecting a jury of all​ faculty :-

^{13}C_{6}=\dfrac{13!}{6!(13-6)!}=462

Then , the probability of selecting a jury of all​ students :-

\dfrac{1716}{134596}=\dfrac{30}{3059}

c) Number of ways of selecting a jury of two students and four ​faculty :-

^{11}C_{2}\times^{13}C_{4}=\dfrac{11!}{2!(11-2)!}\times\dfrac{13!}{4!(13-4)!}=39325

Then , the probability of selecting a jury of all​ students :-

\dfrac{39325}{134596}=\dfrac{3575}{12236}
