Answer:

The teacher can hand out pizza to 8 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many slices of pizza the teacher can hand out , you can divide 7 by 7/8 and round down the nearest whole number.

7 ÷ 7/8 = 8

8 is already a whole number. No need to round down.

The teacher can hand out pizza to 8 students.

6x + 3y = 33 4x + y = 15 A. x = 2, y = 7 B. x = -13, y = 7 C. x = - 2 3 , y = 12 2 3 D. x = 5, y = 1
klio [65]

6x+3y=33..........(1)

4x+y=15

y=15-4x.........(2)

substitute value of y from (2) in (1)

6x+3(15-4x)=33

distribute 3 over the bracket

6x+45-12x =33

-6x=33-45

-6x=-12

x=2

plugging this value of x in equation 2 we get

15-4x=y

15-4(2)=y

y=15-8

y=7

Answer is x=2 and y=7

Suppose that two openings on an appellate court bench are to be filled from current municipal court judges. The municipal court
Ksju [112]

Answer:

(a)\dfrac{92}{117}

(b)\dfrac{8}{39}

(c)\dfrac{25}{117}

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Men, n(M)=24

Number of Women, n(W)=3

Total Sample, n(S)=24+3=27

Since you cannot appoint the same person twice, the probabilities are <u>without replacement.</u>

(a)Probability that both appointees are men.

P(MM)=\dfrac{24}{27}X \dfrac{23}{26}=\dfrac{552}{702}\\=\dfrac{92}{117}

(b)Probability that one man and one woman are appointed.

To find the probability that one man and one woman are appointed, this could happen in two ways.

  • A man is appointed first and a woman is appointed next.
  • A woman is appointed first and a man is appointed next.

P(One man and one woman are appointed)=P(MW)+P(WM)

=(\dfrac{24}{27}X \dfrac{3}{26})+(\dfrac{3}{27}X \dfrac{24}{26})\\=\dfrac{72}{702}+\dfrac{72}{702}\\=\dfrac{144}{702}\\=\dfrac{8}{39}

(c)Probability that at least one woman is appointed.

The probability that at least one woman is appointed can occur in three ways.

  • A man is appointed first and a woman is appointed next.
  • A woman is appointed first and a man is appointed next.
  • Two women are appointed

P(at least one woman is appointed)=P(MW)+P(WM)+P(WW)

P(WW)=\dfrac{3}{27}X \dfrac{2}{26}=\dfrac{6}{702}

In Part B, P(MW)+P(WM)=\frac{8}{39}

Therefore:

P(MW)+P(WM)+P(WW)=\dfrac{8}{39}+\dfrac{6}{702}\\$P(at least one woman is appointed)=\dfrac{25}{117}

Betty can mow a lawn in 20 minutes. Bullwinkle can mow the same lawn in 60 minutes. How long does it take for both Betty and Bul
inn [45]

Answer:

  15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Betty mows at 3 times the speed that Bullwinkle does, so is equivalent to having 3 Bullwinkles in her place. That makes the lawn get mowed as though 4 Bullwinkles were working, so it will take 1/4 the time it takes Bullwinkle to mow the whole yard. 1/4 of 60 minutes is 15 minutes.

Working together, Betty and Bullwinkle will take 15 minutes to mow the lawn.
