At most 12 peppers can be bought with $18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total amount for peppers = $18

Cost per pepper = $1.50

Let p be the number of peppers that can be bought from $18 at $1.50 per pepper

So,

1.50p\leq 18

Dividing both sides by 1.50

\frac{1.50p}{1.50}\leq \frac{18}{1.50}\\p\leq 12

Hence,

At most 12 peppers can be bought with $18

The y-intercept of g(x) in g(x) = 3x - 2 is (0,-2) (0,0) (2/3,0)
Dennis_Churaev [7]
For any y-intercept, the x-coordinate is zero. This is something to bear in mind to start with.

Now to find the y-intercept, find g(0) = -2.

Therefore the answer is (0,-2)

The director of admissions at Kinzua University in Nova Scotia estimated the distribution of student admissions for the fall sem
wariber [46]

Answer:

In order to calculate the expected value we can use the following formula:  

E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)  

And if we use the values obtained we got:  

E(X)=(1060*0.5) +(1400*0.1) +(1620*0.4)=1318  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the number of admisions at the universit, and we have this probability distribution given:

X        1060   1400    1620

P(X)     0.5      0.1        0.4

In statistics and probability analysis, the expected value "is calculated by multiplying each of the possible outcomes by the likelihood each outcome will occur and then summing all of those values".

The variance of a random variable Var(X) is the expected value of the squared deviation from the mean of X, E(X).

And the standard deviation of a random variable X is just the square root of the variance.  

In order to calculate the expected value we can use the following formula:  

E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)  

And if we use the values obtained we got:  

E(X)=(1060*0.5) +(1400*0.1) +(1620*0.4)=1318

A farmer had twice as many chickens as ducks on his farm. After he sold 166 chickens and ducks, he had half as many chickens as
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

The farmer have at first <u>202</u> chickens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A farmer had twice as many chickens as ducks on his farm. After he sold 166 chickens and ducks, he had half as many chickens as ducks left.

Now, to find the chickens farmer have at first.

Let the chickens be x.

And, the ducks be y.

<em>As, the farmer had twice as many chickens as ducks on his farm.</em>

So, x=2y    ......(1)

<em>As, given the farmer after selling 166 chickens and ducks, he had half as many chickens as ducks left.</em>

According to question:

x-166=(y-29)\times \frac{1}{2}

x-166=\frac{y-29}{2}

Substituting the value of x from equation (1) we get:

2y-166=\frac{y-29}{2}

<em>By cross multiplying we get:</em>

4y-332=y-29

<em>Adding both sides 332 we get:</em>

4y=y+303

<em>Subtracting both sides by </em>y<em> we get:</em>

3y=303

<em>Dividing both sides by 3 we get:</em>

y=101.

Now, to get the number of chickens substituting the value of y in equation (1):

x=2y\\\\x=2\times 101\\\\x=202.

Therefore, the farmer have at first 202 chickens.
