Batch size = 280 purifiers
Defectives = 12 purifiers

Then,
P(defective) = defectives/batch size = 12/280 =3/70

As a percentage:
P(defective) = (3/70)*100 = 4.29%

I need help please. If you are correct, I will give you Brainliest.
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

(C) 220

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of adult tickets sold and y represent the number of student tickets sold. With the information given, we can set up two equations:

x+y=360

5x+3y=1360 (Since for every adult ticket sold, $5 is made and for every student ticket sold, $3 is made)

In the first equation, we can represent x in terms of y:

x=360-y

And then, we can substitute x in the second equation for 360 - y to get:

5(360-y)+3y=1360 which simplifies to:

1800-2y=1360 and therefore, y=220.

Hope this helps :)

Can someone please help me with this geometry question
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

A. q = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lines are parallel, their sides will be proportional,

So,

Taking their proportion

=> \frac{60}{40} = \frac{q}{26}

Cross Multiplying

q × 40 = 26 × 60

q = \frac{1560}{40}

q = 39

Answer:

f(-4) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Fro the graph attached,

We have to calculate the value of the function at x = -4.

As we can find from the graph at the input value x = -4, output value of the function is f(-4) = 4

Therefore, f(-4) = 4 will be the answer.
