Answer:

C. a = 3

b = 7

c = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -b+/- (sq) b^2 - 4ac.

Well the way to plug the numbers in is by using this equation: Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0

S if you use your equation : 3x^2 = 20 - 7x

First you have to move everything to one side.

So it'll look like this:

3x^2 = 20 - 7x

-20      -20

3x^2 - 20 = -7x

+7x  +7x

3x^2 - 20 + 7x = 0

don't forget that... Ax^2 +Bx+ C= 0

3 = A

7 = B

-20 = C

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

a) 0.7412 = 74.12% probability that all the three orders will be filled correctly.

b) 0.0009 = 0.09% probability that none of the three will be filled correctly

c) 0.0245 = 2.45% probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly.

d) 0.9991 = 99.91% probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly

e) 0.0082 = 0.82% probability that only your order will be filled correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

For each order, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is filled correctly, or it is not. Orders are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

The percentage of orders filled correctly at Burger King was approximately 90.5%.

This means that p = 0.905

You and 2 friends:

So 3 people in total, which means that n = 3

a. What is the probability that all the three orders will be filled correctly?

This is P(X = 3).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.905)^{3}.(0.095)^{0} = 0.7412

0.7412 = 74.12% probability that all the three orders will be filled correctly.

b. What is the probability that none of the three will be filled correctly?

This is P(X = 0).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.905)^{0}.(0.095)^{3} = 0.0009

0.0009 = 0.09% probability that none of the three will be filled correctly.

c. What is the probability that one of the three will be filled correctly?

This is P(X = 1).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 1) = C_{3,1}.(0.905)^{1}.(0.095)^{2} = 0.0245

0.0245 = 2.45% probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly.

d. What is the probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly?

This is

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)

With what we found in b:

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0009 = 0.9991

0.9991 = 99.91% probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly.

e. What is the probability that only your order will be filled correctly?

Yours correctly with 90.5% probability, the other 2 wrong, each with 9.5% probability. So

p = 0.905*0.095*0.095 = 0.0082

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that only your order will be filled correctly

Herman is standing on a ladder that is partly in a hole.He starts out on a rung that is 6 feet under ground ,climbs up 14 feet,t
fomenos
Well lets try using negatives and positives, negatives for underground positives for above. -6 + 14 = 8 then 8 - 11 = -3. When Herman finally stops climbing he is 3 feet below ground level.

A t-shirt increased in price by 1/4. After the increase it was £20. What was the original price of the t-shirt?
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

£16

the t-shirt increased by 0.25. let's convert that to percentage

therefore it increased by 25%

By using cross multiplication we can write as follows:

125%=£20

100%=£ x

(100×20)/125= £16

Find each quotient. Write in simplest form. keep answer as fraction - not decimal
kirill [66]

So we are given the expression:

\frac{mn^{2}}{4} ÷ \frac{m^{2}n}{8}

When we divide fractions, we must flip the second term and change the sign to multiplication:

\frac{mn^{2}}{4} *\frac{8}{m^{2}n}

And then we multiply across:

\frac{mn^{2}}{4} *\frac{8}{m^{2}n}= \frac{8mn^{2}}{4m^{2}n}

Then we can break apart all of the like variables for simplification:

\frac{8mn^{2}}{4m^{2}n}=\frac{8}{4} * \frac{m}{m^{2}} *\frac{n^{2}}{n}

When we simplify variables through division, we subtract the exponent of the numerator from the exponent of the denominator. So we then have:

\frac{8}{4} =2

\frac{m}{m^{2}}=m^{-1} =\frac{1}{m}

\frac{n^{2}}{n}=n^{1}=\frac{n}{1}

So then we multiply all of these simplified parts together:

\frac{2}{1}*\frac{1}{m}*\frac{n}{1}   =\frac{2n}{m}

So now we know that the simplified form of the initial expression is: \frac{2n}{m}.
