Let the no. of red rose be R,
Let the no. of pink rose be P.
$3*R+$2*P = $68
R+P=24

R=24-P 
3(24-P)+2P=68
72-3P+2P=68
P=4
R=20

You run one lap around a mile track every 8 minutes. Your friend runs around the same track every 10 minutes. You both start at
Ber [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first runs n+1 laps

and second runs n laps in the same time.

so (n+1)8=10n

10n=8n+8

10n-8n=8

2n=8

n=8/2=4

one lap=1 mile

4 laps=4 miles

4+1=5 laps=5 miles.

first runs 5 miles whereas second runs=4 miles.

32 percent of the customers of a fast food chain order the Whopper, French fries and a drink. A random sample of 10 cash registe
weqwewe [10]

Answer: 0.0023

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the binomial variable that represents the number of receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered.

probability of success p = 32% = 0.32

Sample size : n= 10

Binomial probability function :

P(X=x)= \ ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

Now, the probability that eight receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered :

P(X=8)=\ ^{10}C_8(0.32)^8(1-0.32)^2\\\\=\dfrac{10!}{8!2!}(0.32)^8(0.68)^2\\\\=5\times9(0.0000508414176684)\\\\=0.00228786379508\approx0.0023

hence, the required probability = 0.0023

Which formula is easier to use. Finding the area of a trapezoid or circle? Explain in detail with a minimum of 4 sentence
Scrat [10]

Answer: Circle, in my opinion

Step-by-step explanation:

Trapezoid Formula: (a+b/2)h

Circle Formula: πr*2

Solving a circle requires less steps than solving for a trapezoid would, so in my opinion, finding the area of a circle is easier than a trapezoid.

Hope this helps!
