Answer:

202.90

Step-by-step explanation:

If 187.90 is the price before the sales tax, you will multiply it by the 0.08 tax which will give you 15.032. You take 15.032 and add it to 187.90 because that is the sales tax. And after you add it and round to the nearest cent you get 202.90

In a certain card game you draw one card off a standard deck of 52 cards. If you draw a spade you get paid $12, if you draw a re
Mariulka [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard deck of 52 cards, there are 2 red aces, 2 red Queens, and 13 spades.  That leaves 35 cards for everything else.

For the game to be fair, the cost must equal the expected value.  The expected value is the sum of each outcome times its probability.

C = (12) (13/52) + (20) (2/52) + (38) (2/52) + (0) (35/52)

C = 68/13

C ≈ 5.2308

Midpoints <br> B is the midpoint of AC , find x.
PolarNik [594]

B is the midpoint which means both sides are equal to each other:

5x = 3x + 4

Subtract 3x from both sides

2x = 4

Divide both sides by 2

X = 2

Whats the Axis of Symmetry? willing to give 15 points !!
nydimaria [60]

The axis of symmetry of a parabola in the form

y=ax^2+bx+c

is a vertical line

x=k

where k is the x coordinate of the vertex of the parabola.

The x coordinate of the vertex of the parabola is given by

-\dfrac{b}{2a}

which in your case is

-\dfrac{-6}{2\cdot \frac{1}{4}}=\dfrac{6}{\frac{1}{2}}=6\cdot 2=12

So, the axis of symmetry is the line x=12.

The probability that an American CEO can transact business in a foreign language is .20. Twelve American CEOs are chosen at rand
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

The probability that an American CEO can transact business in  foreign language=0.20

The probability than an American CEO can not transact business in foreign language=1-0.20=0.80

Total number of American CEOs  chosen=12

a. The probability that none can transact business in a foreign language=12C_0(0.20)^0(0.80)^{12}

Using binomial theorem nC_r(1-p)^{n-r}p^r

The probability that none can transact business in a foreign language=\frac{12!}{0!(12-0)!}(0.8)^{12}=(0.8)^{12}

b.The probability that at least two can transact business in a foreign language=1-P(x=0)-p(x=1)=1-((0.8)^{12}+12C_1(0.8)^{11}(0.2))=1-((0.8)^{12}+12(0.8)^{11}}(0.2))

c.The probability that all 12 can transact business in a foreign language=12C_{12}(0.8)^0(0.2)^{12}

The probability that all 12 can transact business in a foreign language=\frac{12!}{12!}(0.2)^{12}=(0.2)^{12}
