Mickey used to work at Best Buy and was also offered that other job at The Digital Source. In the end, she declined both of thos

e jobs in order to work at Wild Wally’s Warehouse for Electronics. At Wild Wally’s, the relationship between the number of digital cameras that she sells in a week (x) and her total weekly pay in dollars (y) can be represented with a linear function. In her first week at Wild Wally’s, Mickey sells 5 cameras. She earns $275 for that week. The next week, she sells 11 cameras, and her total pay for the week is $395. Determine the slope for this function?

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

For two different points (x_1,y_1), (x_2,y_2), the slope of this function is

\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

so in this example it comes

\dfrac{395-275}{11-5}=\dfrac{120}{6}=20

The slope of this function is 20

To avoid detection at customs, a traveler has placed 6 narcotic tablets in an Urn containing 9 vitamin pills that are similar in
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

\frac{4}{91}

Step-by-step explanation:  

We are told that to avoid detection at customs, a traveler has placed 6 narcotic tablets in an Urn containing 9 vitamin pills that are similar in appearance.

To find the probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics we will use theoretical probability formula.

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Number of possible outcomes}}

Favorable outcomes will be _{3}^{6}\textrm{C}.

\text{Favorable outcomes}=_{3}^{6}\textrm{C}=\frac{6!}{(6-3)!3!}

\text{Favorable outcomes}=\frac{6!}{3!3!}

\text{Favorable outcomes}=\frac{6\cdot 5\cdot 4\cdot3!}{3\cdot 2\cdot 1\cdot3!}

\text{Favorable outcomes}=\frac{6\cdot 5\cdot 4}{3\cdot 2}

\text{Favorable outcomes}=5\cdot 4=20

Now let us find number of possible outcomes.

\text{Number of possible outcomes}=_{3}^{15}\textrm{C}=\frac{15!}{(15-3)!3!}

\text{Number of possible outcomes}=\frac{15!}{12!3!}

\text{Number of possible outcomes}=\frac{15\cdot 14\cdot 13\cdot 12!}{12!\cdot 3\cdot 2\cdot 1}

\text{Number of possible outcomes}=\frac{15\cdot 14\cdot 13}{ 3\cdot 2\cdot 1}

\text{Number of possible outcomes}=5\cdot 7\cdot 13=455

Upon substituting our values in probability formula we will get,

\text{Probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics}=\frac{20}{455}

Upon dividing numerator and denominator by 5 we will get,

\text{Probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics}=\frac{4}{91}

Therefore, the probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics is \frac{4}{91}.

The answer is 1/10 or 10%.

The solution is as follows:
The probability of Neil's group winning is 100/2000 or 1/20
The probability o Neil winning is 10/2000 or 1/200
The probability that Neil is the winner inside his group after being announced his group won is 10/100 or 1/10.

Two teams of interns are wrapping donated gifts at a hospital. if the teams work alone, team a can wrap all of the gifts in 7 ho
romanna [79]
Together it would take 3 hours.
Team A can wrap all gifts in 7 hours; thus they can wrap 1/7 of the gifts in 1 hour.

Team B can wrap all gifts in 5 hours; thus they can wrap 1/5 of the gifts in 1 hour.

1/7h + 1/5h = 1, where h is the number of hours; it equals 1 because it is 100% of the gifts;

Find a common denominator.  35 is the first thing 7 and 5 will both divide into.  Convert the fractions:
5/35h + 7/35h = 1
12/35h = 1

Divide both sides by 12/35:
12/35h ÷ 12/35 = 1 ÷ 12/35
h = 1/1 ÷ 12/35
h = 1/1 × 35/12
h = 35/12
h = 2.9
h ≈ 3
