Okay so. 

We have two basic equations 

Tower A+ B+720    A is 720ft taller than B. 
Tower A+B= 1982     Combined height is 1982ft

Replace A with B+720 in 2nd equation and solve for B 

B+720+B=1982   Combine like terms 
2B+720=1982     Subtract 720 from both sides
2B=1262              Divide both sides by 2
B=1262/2 
B= 631ft 

We know that A=B+720 so you simply need to do that addition to have the height of both towers.

<em>Scott will buy at least 5 kilograms of candy.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Inequalities</u>

The candy Scott buys cost $7 per kilogram.

Let's set p=number of kilograms of candy Scott will buy.

The money spent to buy p kilograms of candy is 7p dollars.

The condition states he will spend at least $35 on candies, thus the following inequality is formed:

7p ≥ 35

Dividing by 7:

p ≥ 35/7

Operating:

p ≥ 5

Scott will buy at least 5 kilograms of candy.

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

0.0537

Step-by-step explanation:

This follows a binomial distribution with : n

Number of trials 'N' = 12 ; Probability of success (difference between speakers) 'p' = 1/2 or 0.5 ; Probability of failure (no difference b/w speakers) = 1/2 or 0.5 ; No of success 'r' = 3

P (X = 3) = N C r. (p)^r.(q)^(n-r)\\

= 12C3 (0.5)^3 (0.5)^9
