Mumz [18]

Answer:

69.20in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

diagonal of the TV d= 55in

Widht of the TV w=  42 in

Hight h= ???

Applying the Pythagoras theorem

d^2= w^2+ h^2

substitute

55^2= 42^2+ h^2

3025= 1764+ h^2

3025+1764= h^2

4789= h^2

h=√4789

h= 69.20

Hence the Heigth is 69.20in

An insurance company issues life insurance policies in three separate categories: standard,preferred,and ultra- preferred. Of th
slega [8]

Answer:

a) 0.0002

b) 0.0057

c) 0.0364

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start by stating the probabilities of a person belonging to each policy:

Standard: 0.3

Preferred: 0.5

Ultra- Preferred: 0.2

The probability of person belonging to each policy AND dying in the next year:

Standard: 0.3 x 0.015 = 0.0045

Preferred: 0.5 x 0.002 = 0.001

Ultra- Preferred: 0.2 x 0.001 = 0.0002

a) The probability a ultra - preferred policy holder dies in the next year is 0.001. To find the probability of a person being both a ultra - preferred policy holder AND die in the next year is: 0.001 x 0.2= 0.0002

b)  The probability is given by adding the probabilities calculated before :

0.0045 + 0.001 + 0.0002 = 0.0057

c) We use the results above again. This is 0.0002 / (0.001 + 0.0045). The answer comes out to be 0.0364

Someone plz help on # 15 (idk what to do) :/
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

2x-5= -20

move -5 to the other side

sign changes from -5 to 5

2x-5+5= -20+5

2x= -15

divide by 2 for both sides

2x/2= -15/2

cross out 2 and 2, divide by 2 and 2 and then becomes x

x= -15/2

A band sells tickets to a concert cost either $15 for adults or $10 for students. A total of 150 tickets are sold. If the band m
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Number of adult tickets sold= 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Adults tickets= $15

Student tickets= $10

Number of tickets sold= 150

Total sales= $2,000

<u>First, we determine the systems of equations:</u>

15*x + 10*y= 2,000

x + y = 150

x= number of adults tickets sold

y= number of students tickets sold

<u>Now, we isolate x in one equation, and substitute it in the other one:</u>

x= 150 - y

15*(150 - y) + 10y = 2,000

2,250 - 15y + 10y = 2,000

250 = 5y

50= y

x= 150 - 50

x= 100

<u>Prove: </u>

15*100 + 10*50= 2,000

100 + 50 = 150
