Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of slices eaten by Bryan be x

Daneil= 7x

x+7x=16

8x = 16

x = 16/8

x=2

Bryan = 2 slices

Daneil= 14 slices

The Problem of the Points. Two players engage in a game. They are equally matched, and the chances of winning a point are the sa

Dominik [7]

Answer:

Player A receives $77.34375 of the sakes

Player B receives $22.65625 of the stakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that at the time the game was interrupted, we have;

The number of points player A has = 7 points

The number of points player B has = 5 points

The amount the first player to score 10 points wins = $100

The number of points remaining for player A to win the game = 3

The number of points remaining for player B to win the game = 5

Therefore, the number of trials remaining for a winner to emerge = 3 + 5 - 1 = 7 trials

We take the probability that Player A wins a point as success

We find the likelihood of Plater A winning by using binomial theory as follows;

$P(S) = \sum\limits_{j=3}^7 \dbinom{7}{3} \cdot \dfrac{1}{2^7} = \dfrac{35}{128} + \dfrac{35}{128} + \dfrac{21}{128} + \dfrac{7}{128} + \dfrac{1}{128} = \dfrac{99}{128}$

Therefore, given that the likelihood of Player A winning = 99/128

The stakes should be divided such that Player A gets 99/128 share of the stakes while Player B gets 1 - 99/128 = 29/128 share of the stakes

Therefore, Player A gets (99/128) × $100 = $77.34375

Player B gets (29/128) × $100 = $22.65625

A box is to be wrapped in a shiny pink decorative paper. The box is 99 inches long, 55 inches wide, and 44 inches high.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

24442 square inches of decorative paper

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the above question, we have to find the Surface Area of the box. The box is shaped as a Rectangular Prism.

Hence, the formula is given as:

A = 2(wl + hl+ hw)

Where:

Length (l) = 99 inches

Width (w) = 55 inches

Height (h) = 44 inches

=2 × (55×99 + 44×99 + 44×55)

=24442 square inches

Therefore, the minimum amount of decorative paper needed to cover the box is 24442 square inches of decorative paper.

Please help if you can

Arisa [49]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to be used,

Scale factor = $\frac{\text{Dimension of the image rectangle}}{\text{Dimension of the original}}$

By this formula,

$\frac{7}{2}=\frac{\text{Length of the dilated rectangle}}{\text{Length of the original rectangle}}$

$\frac{7}{2}=\frac{L}{22}$

L = $\frac{7\times 22}{2}$

= 77 inches

Similarly, width of the the dilated rectangle = $\frac{7}{2}\times 10$

= 35 inches

Perimeter of the new rectangle = 2(Length + width)

= 2(77 + 35)

= 224 inches

Option (D) will be the correct option.
