Answer:

The number of carpets cleaned by new company per week  is 249

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume :

The number of carpets cleaned by old company in 1 week = m

So, the number of carpets cleaned by new company in 1 week

= 3 x ( Number of carpets cleaned by old company)

 = 3 (m) = 3 m

Total carpet cleaned altogether in a week  = 332

So, Total Carpets cleaned by both companies in 1 week

= Number of carpets cleaned by ( Old + New) company in 1 week.

=  m + 3  m =  4 m

⇒  4  m = 332

or, m = 332 / 4 = 83  , or m = 83

Hence number of carpets cleaned by old company per week = m = 83

The number of carpets cleaned by new company per week

= 3 m =  3 x 83= 249

Answer:

43/70

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of times spun = 14 + 12 + 16 + 15 + 13 = 70

Total number of times spun that yielded a odd number (1,3,5) = 14 + 16 + 13 = 43

The probability of spinning an odd number = total number of spins that yielded 1,3,5 ÷ total number of spins yielding all values from 1 to 5

= 43 / 70

-2(8m+8) = -16

-16m - 16 = -16

His first mistake lies in his distribution. When multiplying -2 * 8, he made it a positive 16, when he should have made it a negative 16.

-16m - 16 = -16

Add 16 to each side.

-16m = 0

Divide that by -16

m = 0
