Answer:
The Supreme Court.
Step-by-step explanation:
After the end of the Civil War and the enactment of the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865, slavery was officially abolished in the United States. Thus, the millions of African American slaves that inhabited the southern states of the country won their freedom and equality before the law against whites.
Now this situation began to dismember in 1877, when federal troops left the southern states and Reconstruction officially came to an end. From then on, Democratic governors and legislators began to sanction the Black Codes and Jim Crow Laws, aimed at curtailing the civil and political rights of African-Americans.
This situation was tested before the Supreme Court in 1896 in the case Plessy v. Ferguson. But in the ruling of said case, the Supreme Court established that racial segregation was constitutional and therefore neglected African Americans and their rights.
First of all, I must assume that the correct cost for carpet is $4.25 per <em><u>square</u></em> foot.
It could be $4.25 per foot if it came of a standard roll, but then I would need to know the width of the roll, which you haven't given.
Area of the room = (15-ft x 14-ft) = 210 square feet
Area of the closet = (4-ft x 8-ft) = 32 square feet
Total area = (210 + 32) = 242 square feet.
Total cost of carpet = (242 x $4.25) = <u>$1,028.50</u> plus pad and installation.
=========================================
You know what ? I think you may have mis-copied the price of carpet altogether.
At $4.25 per square foot, that's <em><u>awfully</u></em> expensive carpet.
I suspect the actual price is $4.25 per <em>square yard</em>. That's pretty cheap, but
it's a lot closer to reasonable than $4.25 per square foot is ($38.25 per yd² !)
If it's $4.25 per square yard, then we need to know that 1 square yd = 9 square ft.
The total requirement is 242/9 = 26 and 8/9 square yard, so you'll buy 27 sq yds.
$4.25 x 27 = <u>$114.75</u> plus pad and installation. That sounds cheap but better.
Answer:
$1400
Step-by-step explanation:
x= profit of 6th month
(200+300+400+500+500+x)
-------------------------------------- = 550
6
(1900+x)=3300
x=3300-1900
x=1400
The probability of the two independent events is the product of the individual probabilities.
The cube has 6 different numbers.
3 of the numbers are odd.
3 of the numbers are even.
p(odd) = 3/6 = 1/2
p(even) = 3/6 = 1/2
p(odd followed by even) = 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
