Answer:

The number of boxes = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the weight of the delivery person =160 lb

The weight of each box of books=40 lb

maximum capacity of the elevator=710 lb

Let the max number of boxes of books be x. Now the total weight of the boxes and the delivery person should not exceed the maximum capacity of the elevator.

40*x+160

40*x

x

x

Therefore the maximum value of x is 13(since it is an integer).

Because all of the ending values are given in feet, find the window dimensions in feet. Convert the length of 3 feet, 9 inches s
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer: 3.75 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given the measure of the length of a window. Generally the length is given in the International System of units format (meters); however, in this case we are given the length in feet and inches:

3 ft+9 in

Now, before converting this whole measure to feet, we have to know that 1 ft=12 in, then we can perform the conversion:

9 in \frac{1 ft}{12 in}=0.75 ft

This means 9 in=0.75 ft

Hence:

3 ft+9 i=3 ft+0.75 ft=3.75 ft This is the measure of the length of the window in feet.

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that special deck of cards has 20 cards. Nine are green, seven are blue, and four are red. When a card is picked, the color of it is recorded. An experiment consists of first picking a card and then tossing a coin

A) Sample space will have Green, Head,  or Green, Tail .... Red, head, red, tail

No of elements in sample space = no of colours x no of outcomes in coin toss

= 4x2 = 8

B) A= getting (RT)

P(A) = Prob of getting red card and tail on coin

= P (R) *P(T)

=\frac{4}{20} *\frac{1}{2} \\=\frac{1}{10}

C) B be the event that a green or blue is picked, followed by landing a tail on the coin toss

B = getting green card and tail

Getting green card tail is mutally exclusive with red card and tail as there is no common element between green and blue.

D) C= red or green card is picked followed by tail.

Here A and C have a common element as getting red and tail.  So not mutually exclusive
