If 2 Lemons cost 15 cents, how many can be bought for 60 cents

2 answers:

8 0

The answer is 8 lemons
What you do is divide 0.15 by 2 into a calculator.
you will get 0.075 which you would then divide by 8 and get 0.6 which is 60 cents, hope this helped!!

8 lemons because $2=15 

4=30 

6 =45 

8=60$

hope this helps

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

N$ 612.5

Step by step explaination:

Given,

Principal or'P'=N$2500

Time or'n'=3 years & 6 months or 3.5 years

Rate of profit or 'r'=7% or 7/100

Profit or 'I'=?

_____________________________________

We know,

I=P*n*r

I=2500*3.5*7/100

I=612.5

So,simple interest is N$ 612.5.

Every day your friend commutes to school on the subway at 9 AM. If the subway is on time, she will stop for a $3 coffee on the w

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

1.02% probability of spending 0 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

7.68% probability of spending 3 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

23.04% probability of spending 6 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

34.56% probability of spending 9 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

25.92% probability of spending 12 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

7.78% probability of spending 12 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Step-by-step explanation:

For each day, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the subway is on time, or it is not. Each day, the probability of the train being on time is independent from other days. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

The probability that the subway is delayed is 40%. 100-40 = 60% of the train being on time, so $p = 0.6$

The week has 5 days, so $n = 5$

She spends 3 dollars on coffee each day the train is on time.

Probabability that she spends 0 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late all 5 days, so it is P(X = 0).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.6)^{0}.(0.4)^{5} = 0.0102$

1.02% probability of spending 0 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 3 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late for 4 days and on time for 1, so it is P(X = 1).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.6)^{1}.(0.4)^{4} = 0.0768$

7.68% probability of spending 3 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 6 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late for 3 days and on time for 2, so it is P(X = 2).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{5,2}.(0.6)^{2}.(0.4)^{3} = 0.2304$

23.04% probability of spending 6 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 9 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late for 2 days and on time for 3, so it is P(X = 3).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 3) = C_{5,3}.(0.6)^{3}.(0.4)^{2} = 0.3456$

34.56% probability of spending 9 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 12 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late for 1 day and on time for 4, so it is P(X = 4).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 4) = C_{5,4}.(0.6)^{4}.(0.4)^{1} = 0.2592$

25.92% probability of spending 12 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 15 dollars on coffee:

Probability that the subway is on time all days of the week, so $P(X = 5)$ .

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.6)^{5}.(0.4)^{0} = 0.0778$

7.78% probability of spending 12 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

An isosceles triangle’s altitude will bisect its base. Which expression could be used to find the area of the isosceles triangle

omeli [17]

Answer:

$\dfrac{\sqrt{40}\cdot \sqrt{40}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the base is the distance between the points 4+2i and 10+4i, so

$\text{Base}=|10+4i-(4+2i)|=|10+4i-4-2i|=|6+2i|=\sqrt{6^2+2^2}=\\ \\=\sqrt{36+4}=\sqrt{40}$

The middle point of the base is placed at point

$\dfrac{4+2i+10+4i}{2}=\dfrac{6i+14}{2}=7+3i$

The length of the height is the distance between the points 5+9i and 7+3i

$\text{Height}=|5+9i-(7+3i)|=|5+9i-7-3i|=|-2+6i|=\sqrt{(-2)^2+6^2}=\\ \\=\sqrt{4+36}=\sqrt{40}$

So, the area of the triangle is

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \text{Base}\cdot \text{Height}=\dfrac{\sqrt{40}\cdot \sqrt{40}}{2}$

What must be true regarding the distribution of the population? A. The population must be normally distributed and the sample s

Karolina [17]

Answer:

C. The population must be normally distributed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population distribution have to do with the classification of people living in a particular geographical area into different segment such as Age, Occupation, Sex, Geographical location.

For instance

If Age distribution is use, the total number of people living in say New york will classified into 0-10 11-19years 20-29years and so on

Sex distribution involves distribution into the male and Female Category

Occupation distribution of Population involves classification of occupant of an area according to their Job.. I.e.Drives-15 people, Lawyer =2 people and so on.

Geographical location distribution of population involves the classification of people living in a particular country according to their geographical names. I.e. Abuja=3.5million people etc.
