The cost per foot of redwood and of pine is $3.5 and $1.5 respectively.
<h3>How to solve simultaneous equation?</h3>
let
- cost of redwood = x
- cost of pine = y
50x + 70y = 280
100x + 60y = 440
Multiply (1) by 2
100x + 140y = 560
100x + 60y = 440
subtract to eliminate x
80y = 120
y = 120/80
y = $1.5
substitute y = 1.5 into (1)
50x + 70y = 280
50x + 70(1.5) = 280
50x + 105 = 280
50x = 280 - 105
50x = 175
x = 175 / 50
x = $3.5

#1. look at the individual probability first.
A dice has 6 sides. The numbers > 2 are {3, 4, 5, 6}. So the chance of rolling a number > 2 is 4/6 or 2/3 simplified.
Multiples of 3 on a dice are {3, 6}. So the chance of rolling a multiple of 3 is 2/6 or 1/3 simplified.
Rolling a dice is an independent event, like flipping a coin the previous roll does not have an effect on the outcome of the next roll. So when you see the word AND connecting the outcomes, you multiply them.
Prob of rolling >2 AND then multiple of 3 = (2/3)*(1/3)
= 2/9
#2. The total socks in the drawer: 8+8+4= 20 socks
The probability of first drawing a blue sock is 8/20 or 2/5 simplified.
Since the question does not say the socks are put back in the drawer, the total number of socks and number of blue socks decrease by 1 after the first draw. This makes the next draw dependent on the first.
The probability of drawing a blue sock is then: 7/19
because there's a blue sock missing.
Probability of drawing blue sock AND then a blue sock (without replacement)
= (2/5)*(7/19)
= 14/95
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
because -16+(-9) is essentially the same thing because you're adding the -9 to the -16
Answer:
A.Wind because it has the lowest predicted frequency.
Answer:
225 necklaces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that they have the necessary amount of straws to match the beads then we can use the following simple equation to solve this problem.
t = b/12 ... where t is the total amount of necklaces and b is the number of beads you have
t = 2700 / 12
225 necklaces.
For 225 necklaces you would also need 1125 straws since each necklace requires 5 straws to be fully made. Therefore if you have this amount you should not run into any problems.
