tigry1 [53]

-> 40 hours per week, 52 weeks a year

<u>shop and save grocers</u>

monthly wages: $3,800

hourly wages: $3800 / 160 = $23.75 per hour

yearly wages: $23.75 per hour x 40 hours per week x 52 weeks a year

= $49,400

yearly wages: $43,000

$16.50 per hour x 40 hours per week x 52 weeks a year

Oxana [17]
Prime numbers are numbers that we can only divide by 1 and it self.
example- 2 can only be divided by 2 and 1

composite numbers are numbers we can divide by two or more numbers
example- 4 can be divided by 1,2 and 4.

An open box is to be made out of a 12-inch by 20-inch piece of cardboard by cutting out squares of equal size from the four corn
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Length = 15.14, width = 7.14 and height = 2.43  inches.

( correct to the nearest hundredth).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the lengths of the squares cut out be x inches.

Then the width of the box will be 12 - 2x and the length will be

20 - 2x inches.

The height of the box is x inches.

Volume V = x(20-2x)(12-2x)

To find the value of x when V is a maximum we find the derivative and equate it to zero.

V = x( 240 - 64x + 4x^2)

V = 4x^3 - 64x^2 + 240x

dV/dx = 12x^2 - 128x + 240 = 0

4(3x^2 - 32x + 60) = 0

This won't factor so we use the formula:

x = [-(-32) +/- √((-32)^2 - 4*3*60)] / 6

= 8.24, 2.43.

So one of these gives a maximum Volume.

The second derivative

d^2V/dx^2 = 24x - 128

When x = 8.24,  this = 69.6 (positive) so this gives a minimum.

x = 2.43 gives a negative  value ( -49.7)  so this is the maximum

So the dimensions are:-

length = 20 - 2(2.43) = 15.14

width = 12 - 2(2.43) = 7.14

height = 2.43.

PLEASE HELP! The table shows the number of championships won by the baseball and softball leagues of three youth baseball divisi
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Question 1: P ( B | Y ) = \frac{ P ( B and Y)}{ P (Y)} = \frac{ \frac{2}{16}}{ \frac{4}{16}} = \frac{1}{2}

Question 2:

A. P ( Y | B ) = \frac{ P(Y and B) }{ P(B) } = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{3}

B. P( Z | B ) = \frac{ P ( Z and B)}{ P (B)}= \frac{ \frac{1}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{6}

C. P((Y or Z)|B) = \frac{ P ((Y or Z) and B)}{P(B)}= \frac{ \frac{3}{16}}{ \frac{6}{16}}= \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional probability is defined by

P(A|B)= \frac{P(A and B)}{P(B)}

with P(A and B) beeing the probability of both events occurring simultaneously.

Question 1:

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }

then

P( B and Y)= \frac{ 2 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

P ( B | Y ) = \frac{ P ( B and Y)}{ P (Y)} = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{4}{16} }  = \frac{1}{2}

Question 2.A:

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}

then

P( B and Y)= \frac{ 2 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

P ( Y | B ) = \frac{ P(Y and B) }{ P(B) } = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{3}

Question 2.B:

Z: Championships won by the 13 - 15 years old, beeing

P ( Z)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}

then

P( Z and B)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

P( Z | B ) = \frac{ P ( Z and B)}{ P (B)}= \frac{ \frac{1}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{6}

Question 3.B

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }

Z: Championships won by the 13 - 15 years old, beeing

P ( Z)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }

then

P (Y or Z) = P(Y) + P(Z) = \frac{6}{16}

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}

so

P((YorZ) and B)= \frac{3}{16}

By definition,

P((Y or Z)|B) = \frac{ P ((Y or Z) and B)}{P(B)}= \frac{ \frac{3}{16}}{ \frac{6}{16}}= \frac{1}{2}
