Answer:

The number of the television sets that is model p is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have total number of television sold = 40

The model p televisions sold for $30 less than the model q televisions

That is $P = $q - $30

Therefore

Let the quantity of the model p sold be X

Let the quantity of the model q sold be X

Therefore

x + y = 40

Total cost of the television = 40 * 141 = $5640

Therefore, 120*x + 90*y = 5640

Plugging in x = 40 - y in the above equation we get

4800 - 30y = 5640 or

y   = -28 and

x = 68

If we put y = 40 - x we get

30x + 3600 = 5640  

If we put

120*x + 150*y = 5640.........(3)

we get

x = 12 and y = 28

Therefore, since the model p sold for $30 less than the model q, from the solution of equation (3) the number of the television sets that is model p = 12

Answer: 12 of the 40 televisions were model p televisions

Step-by-step explanation:

Revenue = price × quantity

Let x represent the number of the model p TV sold

The number of model q TV sold would be 40 - x

Revenue from model p TV sold is

px

Revenue from model q TV sold is

(40 - x)q

Total revenue = px + (40 - x)q

The formula for determining average price is expressed as

Average price = total revenue/total number of TV sold.

The average (arithmetic mean) selling price of the 40 televisions was $141. This means that

141 = (px + (40 - x)q)/40

141 × 40 = px + (40 - x)q

5640 = px + (40 - x)q

p = q - 30

5640 = x(q - 30) + (40 - x)q

5640 = xq - 30x + 40q - xq

5640 = - 30x + 40q

If q = 120, then

5640 = - 30x + 40 × 120

5640 = - 30x + 4800

5640 - 4800 = - 30x

840 = - 30x

x = 840/- 30 = - 28

since x cannot be negative, then q is not equal to 120

Again,

5640 = px + (40 - x)q

If q = 30 + p, then

5640 = px + (40 - x)(30 + p)

5640 = px + 1200 + 40p - 30x - px

5640 = 1200 + 40p - 30x

Therefore,

If p = 120, then

5640 = 1200 + 40 × 120 - 30x

5640 = 6000 - 30x

30x = 6000 - 5640

30x = 360

x = 360/30

x = 12

Licemer1 [7]
So i'm assuming 33^a is saying any number that is a square of 33 inside of 1,313 so first, to find how many even numbers divide 1,313 by two to get 656.5 so if I am not mistaken 656 numbers in 1,313 will be even. Now find all squares of 33 that don't pass 1,313 which is 33 itself and 1,089 because 33^3 is 35,937 so add 2 to 656 to get 668. so the probability is 658/1,313 i believe.

Fiesta28 [93]

I've attached an image showing the coordinates of Ship A and Ship B.

Answer:

distressed vessel is located at (1, 1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image attached, we can see that;

Coordinate of ship A is (3, 4)

Coordinate of ship B is (1, 1)

Now, we are told that Ship A receives a distress signal from the southwest, and ship B receives a distress from the same vessel from the north.

This means that the distressed ship is somewhere in between ship A & B.

To solve this, we will extend the arrow line from Ship A in that same SW direction and we will do the same for ship B in the same North direction. Their point of intersection is where the distressed ship is located.

Now, if we do that, we will see that they will intersect at the point; (1, 1.5)

Thus,distressed vessel is located at (1, 1.5)
