Players in order from greatest to least number of points.

A taxi driver had 50 fares to and from the airport last Monday. The price for a ride to the airport is $10, and the price for a

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Number of Fares to airport is 25 and number of fares from airport is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Number of fares =50

Let number of fares to airport be x.

Let number of fares from airport be y.

hence the equation can be framed as;

$x+y=50 \ \ \ \ equation \ 1$

Also Given

Total Money Collected = $375

Cost to airport = $10

Cost from Airport = $5

Total Money Collect is equal to Cost to airport multiplied by number of Fares to airport plus Cost from airport multiplied by number of Fare from airport.

$10x+5y=375$

Dividing by 5 on both side we get;

$2x+y = 75 \ \ \ \ equation \ 2$

Now Subtracting equation 1 from 2 we get;

$(2x+y)-(x+y)=75-50\\2x+y-x-y=25\\x=25$

Substituting the value of x in equation 1 we get;

$x+y=50\\25+y=50\\y=50-25\\y=25$

Hence Number of Fares to airport is 25 and number of fares from airport is 25.

53% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U.S. adults. Find the probability that the

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

a

$P(X = 5) = 0.2423$

b

$P( X \ge 6 )= 0.4516$

c

$P( X < 4 )= 0.12694$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population proportion is p = 0.53

The sample size is n = 10

Generally the distribution of the confidence of US adults in newspapers follows a binomial distribution

i.e

$X \~ \ \ \ B(n , p)$

and the probability distribution function for binomial distribution is

$P(X = x) = ^{n}C_x * p^x * (1- p)^{n-x}$

Here C stands for combination hence we are going to be making use of the combination function in our calculators

Generally the probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is exactly five is mathematically represented as

$P(X = 5) = ^{10}C_5 * 0.53^5 * (1- 0.53)^{10-5}$

=> $P(X = 5) = 252 * 0.04182 * 0.023$

=> $P(X = 5) = 0.2423$

Generally the probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is at least six is mathematically represented as

$P( X \ge 6 )= P( X = 6) + P( X = 7) + P( X = 8) + P( X = 9) + P( X = 10)$

=> $P( X \ge 6 )= [^{10}C_6 * [0.53]^6 * (1- 0.53)^{10-6}] + [^{10}C_7 * [0.53]^7 * (1- 0.53)^{10-7}] + [^{10}C_8 * [0.53]^8 * (1- 0.53)^{10-8}] + [^{10}C_9 * [0.53]^9 * (1- 0.53)^{10-9}] + [^{10}C_{10} * [0.53]^{10} * (1- 0.53)^{10-10}]$

=> $P( X \ge 6 )= [0.227] + [0.1464] + [0.0619] + [0.0155] + [0.00082]$

=> $P( X \ge 6 )= 0.4516$

Generally the probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is less than four is mathematically represented as

$P( X < 4 )= P( X = 3) + P( X = 2) + P( X = 1) + P( X = 0)$

=> $P( X < 4 )= [^{10}C_3 * 0.53^3 * (1- 0.53)^{10-3}] + [^{10}C_2 * 0.53^2 * (1- 0.53)^{10-2}] + [^{10}C_1 * 0.53^1 * (1- 0.53)^{10-1}] + [^{10}C_0 * 0.53^0 * (1- 0.53)^{10-0}]$

=> $P( X < 4 )= 0.09051 + 0.03 + 0.0059 + 0.000526$

=> $P( X < 4 )= 0.12694$

PLEASE HELP MEH!

goblinko [34]

Answer: x=72, y=26

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a line is 180°, we can do:

2x+10+y=180

2x+y=170

Since a triangle is 180° also, we can do:

x+y+82=180

x+y=98

If we subtract x+y=98 from 2x+y=170, we get:

2x+y=170

x+y=98

x=72

If we insert x=72 into x+y=98, we get:

72+y=98

y=26

We can check our answer by inserting x=72 and y=26 into x+y+82=180

72+26+82=180

98+82=180

180=180

What is 36 percent of 210?

ohaa [14]

Hey there!

Let's start by finding what 1% of 210 is.

This can be done by dividing 210 by 100, since 1% is the same as 1/100 of something.

210 ÷ 100 = 2.1

To find 36%, we can multiply 2.1 by 36.

2.1 x 36 = 75.6

So, 36% of 201 is 75.6.

Hope this helps!
