A fruit stand sells apples, peaches and tomatoes. Today, they sold 4 apples for every 5 peaches. They sold 2 peaches for every 3
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

He sold 32 apples, 40 peaches and 60 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

4 apples are sold every 5 peaches and

3 tomatoes are sold every 2 peaches.

i.e. the ratio is apples: peaches = 4 : 5     ...... (1)

and the ratio peaches: tomatoes = 2 : 3   ...... (2)

Peaches are the common link here in both the ratio terms.

Let us make the peaches value in both the <em>ratio as 10 </em>to make it equal in both the ratio terms.

Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 5:

The ratio becomes;

apples:peaches = 8:10

peaches: tomatoes = 10:15

In other words, the ratio becomes:

apples:peaches:tomatoes = 8:10:15

Let the number of apples = 8x

Let the number of peaches = 10x\\

Let the number of tomatoes = 15x

We are given that total fruits are = 132

\Rightarrow 8x+10x+15x = 132\\\Rightarrow 33x = 132\\\Rightarrow x =4\\

So, number of apples sold = 8 \times 4 = 32

Number of peaches sold = 10 \times 4 = 40

Number of tomatoes sold = 15 \times 4 = 60

Illinois license plates used to consist of either three letters followed by three digits or two letters followed by four digits.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly chosen plate contains the number 2222 is 0.000028 approximately.

The probability that a randomly chosen plate contains the sub-string HI is 0.002548  approximately.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Illinois license plates used to consist of either three letters followed by three digits or two letters followed by four digits.

Part (A)

Let A is the ways in which plates consist of three letters followed by three digits and B is the ways in which two letters followed by four digits.

Here repetition is allow. The number of alphabets are 26 and the number of distinct digits are 10.

The numbers of ways in which three letters followed by three digits can be chosen is: 26\times 26\times 26 \times 10 \times 10 \times10

26^3\times 10^3=17576000

The numbers of ways in which two letters followed by four digits can be chosen is: 26\times 26\times 10 \times 10 \times 10 \times10

26^2\times 10^4=6760000

Hence, the total number of ways are 17576000 + 6760000 = 24336000

Randomly chosen plate contains the number 2222 that means the first two letter can be any alphabets but the rest of the digit should be 2222.

Thus, the total number of ways that a randomly chosen plate contains the number 2222 number are: 26^2=676

The probability that a randomly chosen plate contains the number 2222 is:

\frac{676}{24336000} \approx 0.000028

Part (B)

The number of ways in which chosen plate contains the sub-string HI:

If three letters followed by three digits plate contains the sub-string HI, then the number of possible ways are:

26\times 1\times10^3+1\times 26\times10^3

If two letters followed by four digits plate contains the sub-string HI, then the number of possible ways are:

1\times 10^4

Thus, the total number of ways that a randomly chosen plate contains the sub-string HI are:

1\times 10^4+26\times 1\times10^3+1\times 26\times10^3

62000

From part (A) we know that the total number of ways to chose a number plate is 24336000.

The probability that a randomly chosen plate contains the sub-string HI is:

\frac{62000}{24336000} \approx 0.002548

You have$560 in an account which pays 4.8% compounded annually. If you invest your money for 8 years, then how many dollars of i
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

$ 254.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount invested = $ 560

Interest rate = r = 4.8% = 0.048

Time in years = t = 8 years

The formula for compound interest is:

A =P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Here,

A is the total amount accumulated after t years. P is the amount invested initially and n is the compounding periods per year. Since in this case compounding is done annually, n will be 1. Using the values in the above formula, we get:

A=560(1+\frac{0.048}{1})^{8} = \$ 814.85

Thus, the total amount accumulated after 8 years will be $ 814.85

The amount of interest earned will be:

Interest = Amount Accumulated - Principal Amount

Interest = $ 814.85 - $ 560 = $ 254.85

By the end of 8 years, $ 254.85 would be earned in interest.
