Answer:tony was billed for 154 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of minutes for which Tony was billed.

For his long distance phone service, Tony pays an $8 monthly fee plus 6 cents per minute. Converting 6 cents to dollars, it becomes 6/100 = $0.06

This means that if he made x minutes of long distance call in a month, the total cost would be

8 + 0.06x

Last month, Tony's long distance bill was $17.24. It means that

8 + 0.06x = 17.24

0.06x = 17.24 - 8 = 9.24

x = 9.24/0.06

x = 154

Answer:

D. He forgot to subtract the area of the base from the total surface area of the  cube.

Step-by-step explanation:

He is only spray washing the *exterior* of the building; the base is not exposed so it will not be spray washed, which means Richard can use less water.

Hope this helps. :)

A random sample of n people selected from a large population will be asked whether they have read a novel in the past year. Let
kozerog [31]

Answer:

b. A binomial variable with 25 independent trials

Step-by-step explanation:

The conducted experiment is binomial experiment because outcome can be divided into success or failure. The success would be the people who read novel in the past year and also responses are independent of each other. We have to find the number of trials n in the given problem.

we are given that variance of R=6 and p=probability of success=0.4.

We know that variance of binomial distribution is

Variance=npq

where q=1-p=1-0.4=0.6.

By putting the values in variance formula, we can get the value of n.

6=n*0.4*0.6

6=0.24*n

n=6/0.24

n=25

Hence, random variable R is a binomial variable with 25 independent trials.

On a package of rice, the directions say that the ratio of cups of water to cups of uncooked rice should be 1: 1 2 . a. What is
iragen [17]
A) To cook 1/2 cup of rice, the package tells you that you also need 1 cup of water. The the total volume of ingredients is
.. 1/2 c + 1 c = 1 1/2 c


b) According to the package the ratio of water to rice is
.. water : rice = 1 : 1/2 = 2 : 1
Then the ratio of water to total ingredients is
.. water : (water + rice) = 2 : (2 +1) = 2 : 3

Susan's ratio is incorrect. Susan is using "1" for the total of ingredients, instead of 2+1 = 3. The correct ratio is 2:3.

(2x-3)(3x+4) expand and simplify
elixir [45]

Answer:

6x² - x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor.

(2x - 3)(3x + 4)

= 2x(3x + 4) - 3 (3x + 4) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 6x² + 8x - 9x - 12 ← collect like terms

= 6x² - x - 12 ← in expanded form
