Hey there! :)

All you have to do is find 35% of 800

<em>Remember that you have to change the percent to decimal</em>

35% = 0.35

0.35 × 800 = 280

Your answer is 280 tickets ; 0.35 × 800

Hope this helps :)

A total of $10,000 is invested in two mutual funds. The first account yields 5% and the second account yields 6%. How much was i
Aleks [24]

Answer:

$2,500 was invested in the first account while $7,500 was invested in the second account

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to find the amount which was invested in each of the accounts, given their individual interest rates and the total amount that was accorded as interest from the two investments

Now, since we do not know the amount invested , we shall be representing them with variables.

Let the amount invested in the first account be $x and the amount invested in the second account be $y

Since the total amount invested is $10,000, this means that the summation of both gives $10,000

Mathematically;

x + y = 10,000 ••••••(i)

now for the $x, we have an interest rate of 5%

This mathematically translates to an interest value of 5/100 * x = 5x/100

For the $y, we have an interest rate of 6% and this mathematically translates to a value of 6/100 * y= 6y/100

The addition of both interests, gives 575

Thus mathematically;

5x/100 + 6y/100 = 575

Multiplying through by 100, we have

5x + 6y = 57500 •••••••••(ii)

From 1, we can have x = 10,000-y

let’s substitute this into equation ii

5(10,000-y) + 6y = 57500

50,000-5y + 6y = 57500

50,000 + y = 57500

y = 57500-50,000

y = 7,500

Recall;

x = 10,000-y

so we have;

x = 10,000-7500 = 2,500

A bandana is in the shape of a triangle. The base of the bandana is 30 in. wide, and the height is 12 in. What is the area of th
12345 [234]
A=LW(1/2)
is the standard formula, so plug in for variables
A=(30)(12)(1/2)
You simplify and get
A=180 in
So the complete answer is
-The area of the bandana is 180inches.

wariber [46]

Answer:

P(x < 5)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(x=3)+P(X=4)

P(X=0)=(15C0)(0.5)^0 (1-0.5)^{15-0}=0.0000305

P(X=1)=(15C1)(0.5)^1 (1-0.5)^{15-1}=0.000458

P(X=2)=(15C2)(0.5)^2 (1-0.5)^{15-2}=0.0032

P(X=3)=(15C3)(0.5)^3 (1-0.5)^{15-3}=0.0139

P(X=4)=(15C4)(0.5)^4 (1-0.5)^{15-4}=0.0417

And adding we got:

P(x < 5)=0.0592

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=15, p=0.5)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

And we want to find this probability:

P(x < 5)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(x=3)+P(X=4)

P(X=0)=(15C0)(0.5)^0 (1-0.5)^{15-0}=0.0000305

P(X=1)=(15C1)(0.5)^1 (1-0.5)^{15-1}=0.000458

P(X=2)=(15C2)(0.5)^2 (1-0.5)^{15-2}=0.0032

P(X=3)=(15C3)(0.5)^3 (1-0.5)^{15-3}=0.0139

P(X=4)=(15C4)(0.5)^4 (1-0.5)^{15-4}=0.0417

And adding we got:

P(x < 5)=0.0592
