Mis Meyer's paid $3600 all together for the equipment, furniture and decorations for her restaurant. The equipment cost $500 mor

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The equipment will cost $1740.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Cost of equipment, furniture and decoration be x, y and z.

Now, According to question,

x + y + z = 3600 ...... (1) (cost of all items)

x = 500 + y (∵ equipment cost 500 more than furniture)

and y = 2z ( ∵ furniture twice as much as decoration)

so, z = y/2

Now substituting the value of x and z in eq (1)

$x + y + z = 3600$

$500 + y + y + \frac{y}{2} = 3600$

$2y + \frac{y}{2} = 3600 - 500$

$\frac{5y}{2} = 3100$

$y = \frac{3100\times 2}{5} = 1240$

So, the cost of furniture (y) = 1240

∴ Cost of equipment = y + 500 = 1240 + 500 = 1740

Therefore the cost of equipment was $1740.

Hi! I'm Jenny and I'm a mathematician! I'd love to help you with this problem! :)

Lets get started...

I'll write the equation out for you!

x + x(xx)

Put the value of x = 2 in the above expression we get,

2 + 2(22)

= 2 + 2(2 × 2)

= 2 + 2(4)

= 2 + 8

= 10

On a spinner, there are twenty equal-size sections numbered from 1 to 20. Which spinner game is fair? Show your work.

Anvisha [2.4K]

The spinner game is an illustration of probability, and the spinner game that is fair is (b) If you spin a number greater than 10, you win.

<h3>How to determine the fair game?</h3>

The number of sections in the spinner is given as:

n = 20

There are 10 numbers greater than 10 i.e. 11 to 2.

So, the probability that a number greater than 10 is spun is:

P = 10/20

P = 0.5

The probability that a number that is not greater than 10 is spun is calculated using the following complement rule

q = 1 - p

This gives

q = 1 - 0.5

Evaluate

q = 0.5

Notice that both probabilities are the equal

Hence, the spinner game that is fair is (b) If you spin a number greater than 10, you win.
