Brad Pays less as 6% of 22 is 1.32

so a .08 difference

Answer:

Colleen pays 8 cents more in taxes than Brad

Step-by-step explanation:

We should find the money each of them pay in taxes.

Colleen

Buys a movie for $20 and pays 7% sales tax.

That is, she has to pay in taxes 7% of $20.

So she pays 0.07*20 = $1.40 in taxes

Brad

Brad buys the same movie for $22 and pays 6% sales tax.

That is, he has to pay in taxes 6% of $22.

So he pays 0.06*22 = $1.32 in taxes

Collen pays more. She pays $1.40-$1.32 = $0.08 = 8 cents more.

Answer:

The probability that a high school member selected at random is on the swim team is \frac{9}{40} = 0.225

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: High school student.

Event B: Is on the swin team.

Probability of selecting a high school student:

Of the 1500 students, 200 are on high school. So

P(A) = \frac{200}{1500}

Probability of selecting a high school student who swims:

Of the 1500 students, 45 are high school students who swim. So

P(A \cap B) = \frac{45}{1500}

What is the probability that a high school member selected at random is on the swim team?

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{\frac{45}{1500}}{\frac{200}{1500}} = \frac{45}{200} = \frac{9}{40} = 0.225

The probability that a high school member selected at random is on the swim team is \frac{9}{40} = 0.225

Find (f-g)(x) for the following functions. f(x) = 12x + 20 g(x) = –11x2 + 10x + 33
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

11x2 + 2x-13

Step-by-step explanation:

We must build the new function f-g, which turns to be a sum between polynomials.

f(x)-g(x)= 12x+20 + 11x2- 10x-33

f(x)-g(x)= 12x+20 + 11x2- 10x-33

f(x)-g(x)= 11x2 + 2x-13

The half-life of radioactive cobalt is 5.27 years. Suppose that a nuclear accident has left the level of cobalt radiation in a c
sweet [91]

Answer:

  35 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion p that remains after y years is ...

  p = (1/2)^(y/5.27)

In order for 1/100 to remain (the level decays from 100 times to 1 times), we have ...

  .01 = .5^(y/5.27)

  log(0.01) = y/5.27·log(0.5) . . . take logs

  y = 5.27·log(0.01)/log(0.5) ≈ 35.01 ≈ 35 . . . . years
