Answer: 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio of their share is 2 : 1 , Let Sarah's share be x , then Caroline's share will be 2x.

Since Caroline gets 45 more than Sarah , then

2x = x + 45 ,

2x - x = 45

x = 45

This means that Sarah's share is 45 and Caroline's share will be 90

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of 2:1....total of 3....so caroline gets 2/3 of the money and sarah gets 1/3 of the money. Let the total amount of money be x.

so caroline = 2/3x and sarah = 1/3x

caroline gets 45 more then sarah

2/3x = 1/3x + 45

2/3x - 1/3x = 45

1/3x = 45

x = 45 * 3

x = 135.....so the total money is $ 135

caroline gets 2/3 of it.......2/3(135) = 270/3 = $ 90

sarah gets 1/3 of it......1/3(135) = 135/3 = $ 45 <===

A physical therapist is scheduling appointment for the day. She has six workers comp cases six Medicare patients awaiting care.
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Pr(3worker's comp cases and 4 Medicare patients) = 0.37879

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of worker’s comp cases = 6

Number of Medicare patients = 6

Total  number of people = 6 + 6 = 12

Total number of ways of selecting 7 people from 12 people = 12C7

Total number of ways of selecting 7 people from 12 people = \frac{12!}{(12-7)!7!}

Total number of ways of selecting 7 people from 12 people = 792 ways

Number of ways of selecting 3 worker's comp cases = 6C3

Number of ways of selecting 3 worker's comp cases =  \frac{6!}{(6-3)!3!}

Number of ways of selecting 3 worker's comp cases = 20 ways

Number of ways of selecting 4 Medicare patients= 6C4

Number of ways of selecting 4 Medicare patients =  \frac{6!}{(6-4)!4!}

Number of ways of selecting 4 Medicare patients = 15 ways

Pr(3worker's comp cases and 4 Medicare patients) = (15*20)/792

Pr(3worker's comp cases and 4 Medicare patients) = 300/792

Pr(3worker's comp cases and 4 Medicare patients) = 0.37879
