A construction firm is trying to decide which of two models of a crane to purchase. Model A costs $90,000 and requires $4,000 pe

r year to maintain. Model B has an initial cost of $70,000 and a maintenance cost of $10,000 per year. For how many years must model A be used before it becomes more economical than B?

Let's say hmm let's use the figures in thousands, so
model A costs 90 + 4 per year, so... ok.. after "t" years, then the cost for model A is then 90 + 4*t, or A = 90 + 4t.

now, model B is 70 + 10 per year, so,... after "t" years, model B is then
B = 70 + 10 * t, or B = 70 + 10t.

if we were to assume A < B, namely the cost of A is less than B, what would the years be? namely, what's "t"?

\bf A\ \textless \ B\implies 90+4t \ \textless \  70 + 10t\implies 90-70 \ \textless \  10t-4t&#10;\\\\\\&#10;20 \ \textless \  6t\implies \cfrac{20}{6}\ \textless \ t\implies \cfrac{10}{3}\ \textless \ t\implies 3\frac{1}{3}\ \textless \ t&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{3 years and }\frac{1}{3}\textit{ or \underline{3 years and 4 months}}

after that period, then A becomes cheaper than B.

What set of reflections would carry triangle ABC onto itslelf?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
<h3>Answer: Choice A</h3>

y axis, x axis, y axis, x axis

============================

Explanation:

Reflecting an object over the y axis twice will have it end up in its starting position. The same can be said for the x axis as well. It doesn't matter that the x axis reflections aren't grouped next to each other, nor the y. So in a sense, two x axis reflections undo each other, so do the y axis reflections, and we end up with the same image as shown in the diagram.

Consider an experiment where two 6-sided dice are rolled. We can describe the ordered sample space as below where the first coor
agasfer [191]

Answer:

  • E = { (4,1) , (3,2) , (2,3) , (1,4) }
  • P(E)=\frac{1}{9}
  • P(F|E)=\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start writing the sample space for this experiment :

S= { (1,1) , (1,2) , (1,3) , (1,4) , (1,5) , (1,6) , (2,1) , (2,2) , (2,3) , (2,4) , (2,5) , (2,6) , (3,1) , (3,2) , (3,3) , (3,4) , (3,5) , (3,6) , (4,1) , (4,2) , (4,3) , (4,4) , (4,5) , (4,6) , (5,1) , (5,2) , (5,3) , (5,4) , (5,5) , (5,6) , (6,1) , (6,2) , (6,3) , (6,4) , (6,5) , (6,6) }

Let's also define the event E ⇒

E : '' The sum of the two dice is 5 ''

We can describe the event by listing all the favorables cases from S ⇒

E = { (4,1) , (3,2) , (2,3) , (1,4) }

In order to calculate P(E) we are going to divide all the cases favorables to E over the total cases from S. We can do this because all 36 of these possible outcomes from S are equally likely. ⇒

P(E)=\frac{4}{36}=\frac{1}{9} ⇒

P(E)=\frac{1}{9}

Finally we are going to define the event F ⇒

F : '' The number of the first die is exactly 1 more than the number on the second die ''

⇒

F = { (2,1) , (3,2) , (4,3) , (5,4) , (6,5) }

Now given two events A and B ⇒

P ( A ∩ B ) = P(A,B)

We define the conditional probability as

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A,B)}{P(B)} with P(B)>0

We need to find P(F|E) therefore we can apply the conditional probability equation :

P(F|E)=\frac{P(F,E)}{P(E)}   (I)

We calculate P(E)=\frac{1}{9} at the beginning of the question. We only need P(F,E).

Looking at the sets E and F we find that (3,2) is the unique result which is in both sets. Therefore is 1 result over the 36 possible results. ⇒

P(F,E)=\frac{1}{36}

Replacing both probabilities calculated in (I) :

P(F|E)=\frac{P(F,E)}{P(E)}=\frac{\frac{1}{36}}{\frac{1}{9}}=\frac{1}{4}=0.25

We find out that P(F|E)=\frac{1}{4}=0.25
