Sheila has $3215 and Tom has $1785. How much money must Sheila give to Tom so that Tom has $1000 more than her?

Solve x2 - 8x - 9 = 0. Rewrite the equation so that it is of the form x2 + bx = c.

stira [4]

X^2 - 8x-9=0
D = b^2- 4*a*c = 64- 4* (-9) = 64+36=100 =10^2
X1 = (8-10)/2 = -1
X2= (8+10)/2= 9

Is (2, 2) a solution of y < 4x - 6? Choose 1 answer yes or no

zalisa [80]

No, (2,2) is not solution of y < 4x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve above linear problem, we use standard method of Back- Substitution.

First of all, A point (2,2) only becomes solution of equation, if it satisfies equation $y < 4x - 6$ .

Here, the $y < 4x - 6$ seems to be like a linear equation.

In this Equation, using Back- Substitution method,

Point (2,2) : first digit 2 corresponds to x- coordinate and second digit 2 corresponds to y-coordinate.

$y < 4x - 6.....(1) \\\ x= 2 .....(2) \\\ y= 2 .....(3)$

By putting value of x and y in equation (1),

Equation becomes,

$2 < 4 \times 2 - 6$

$2 < 8 - 6$

$2 < 2$ .... not true mathematically.

Finally, the result came is not true. Therefore, (2,2) is not solution for equation

$y < 4x - 6$

In 1898 L. J. Bortkiewicz published a book entitled The Law of Small Numbers. He used data collected over 20 years to show that

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

(a) The probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.

(b) The probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of soldiers killed by horse kicks in 1 year.

The random variable $X\sim Poisson(\lambda = 0.62)$ .

The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:

$P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0,1,2,...$

(a)

Compute the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year as follows:

P (X > 1) = 1 - P (X ≤ 1)

= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

$=1-\frac{e^{-0.62}(0.62)^{0}}{0!}-\frac{e^{-0.62}(0.62)^{1}}{1!}\\=1-0.54335-0.33144\\=0.12521\\\approx0.1252$

Thus, the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.

(b)

The average deaths over 7 year period is: $\lambda=7\times0.62=4.34$

Compute the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years as follows:

$P(X=0)=\frac{e^{-4.34}(4.34)^{0}}{0!}=0.01304\approx0.0130$

Thus, the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.

Joel wants to buy a new tablet computer from a store having a 20% off sale on all tablets. The tablet he wants has an original c

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Joel will have to pay $ 159.60 for the tablet.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Discount percentage of the tablets = 20%

Original cost of the tablet = $ 190

Sales tax = 5%

2. How much will Joel pay for the tablet? Show your work in your notebook. Remember to use $.

Let's find the discounted price and the sales tax for that price, this way:

Discounted price = Original price - Discount

Discounted price = 190 - (190 * 0.2)

Discounted price = 190 - 38 = 152

Sales tax of the discounted price = 152 * 0.05

Sales tax = 7.60

Joel will have to pay = Discounted price + Sales tax

Joel will have to pay = 152 + 7.60

Joel will have to pay = $ 159.60
