BRAINLIEST!!Felicia had $80 when she went to a music store that charges $18 for each CD. She needs to have no less than $20 in h
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The possible number of CDs she could buy is 1, 2, and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to make an equation to solve to find the answer(s):

  • 80 - (18 · x) ≥ 20
  • 80 is how much money Felicia has; 18 is for the cost of each CD; x is for the number of CDs; ≥ is no less; and 20 is how much money Felicia needs to have left.

1.) 80 - (18 · 1) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 1 ≥ 20

80 - 18 ≥ 20

62 ≥ 20

Since 62 ≥ 20 is always true, there are infinitely many solutions.

2.) 80 - (18 · 2) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 2 ≥ 20

80 - 36 ≥ 20

44 ≥ 20

Since 44 ≥ 20 is always true, there are infinitely many solutions.

3.) 80 - (18 · 3) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 3 ≥ 20

80 - 54 ≥ 20

26 ≥ 20

Since 26 ≥ 20 is always true, there are infinitely many solutions.

4.) 80 - (18 · 4) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 4 ≥ 20

80 - 72 ≥ 20

8 ≥ 20

Since 8 ≥ 20 is false, there is no solution.

5.) 80 - (18 · 5) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 5 ≥ 20

80 - 90 ≥ 20

- 10 ≥ 20

Since - 10 ≥ 20 is false, there is no solution.

Six hundred paving stones were examined for cracks, and 15 were found to be cracked. The same 600 stones were then examined for
9966 [12]

Answer: 0.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the events are :

C = paving stones found to be cracked.

D = paving stones found to be discolored.

Given : Total stones : T = 600  (i)

C = 15

D=  27

C'∩D'=  564   (ii)

Since C'∩D' = (C∪D)' = T- C∪D         (iii)

From (i) , (ii)and (ii) , we have

564 = 600- C∪D

⇒ C∪D=600- 564= 36

Formula : C∩D= C+D- C∪D

Put values , we get

C∩D= 15+27-36=6

Now ,

P(C\cap D)=\dfrac{C\cap D}{T}=\dfrac{6}{600}=0.01

The probability that it is both cracked and distorted is 0.01.
