Hello!

You first find out how many objects there are in total


4 + 9 + 3 = 16

Then you find the probability of Liliana picking a orange

Since there are 4 oranges and 16 things to pick she has a 4/16 chance of getting an orange

Next you find the probability of Liliana picking a pear

There are 3 pears and 16 items to pick so she has a 3/16 chance

Then you add them together to find the chance of either happening

4/16 + 3/16 = 7/16

So she has a 7 out of 16 chance of getting an orange or a pear

The answer is 7/16

Hope this helps!

A manager is comparing the cost of buying ball caps with the team emblem from two different companies. Company X charges a $50 f
Nady [450]

Answer:

10 ball caps

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are trying to know the number of caps the manger would buy that would equate the cost at both companies.

How do we get this?

Since we do not know the number of caps, let’s assign a variable. Let the number of caps that is required be x. Let’s now make some costings in terms of x. We proceed;

Company X charges $50 fee plus $7 per cap. Total amount company X will charge on x caps will be; $50 + $7(x) = $50 + $7x

Company Y will charge $30 plus $9 per cap. Total amount company Y will charge on x caps will be $30 + $9(x) = $30 + $9x

We are trying to look at the value of x that will make both costs equal. What we do is to equate both costs.

30 + 9x = 50 + 7x

We simply by taking like terms to the same sides

9x-7x = 50-30

2x = 20

x = 20/2 = 10

X = 10

So what this means is that manger has to buy 10 caps to have the same cost in both companies

andriy [413]
For this case we have the following trigonometric relationship:
 cos (y) = 8/13
 Clearing the value of and we have:
 y = Acos (8/13)
 Calculating the angle we have:
 y = 52.02012756 degrees
 Rounding off we have:
 y = 52.02 degrees
 Answer:
 
the measure of angle and is:
