<span>The sum of two numbers is 50. The smaller number is 18 less than the larger number. What are the numbers?
-----
Equations:
x + y = 50
x = y - 18
-------------------
Add and solve for "x"::

2x = 32
x = 16
-----
Solve for "y"::
16 + y = 50
y = 34

The graph looks accurate make sure you create a table of values and clearly dot the points at (0,-3) and (2,-3).

A tour operator has a bus that can accommodate 20 tourists. The operator knows that tourists may not show up, so he sells 21 tic

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The expected revenue of the tour operator is 985.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two outcomes:

Either less than 21 tourists show up and the operator does not have to pay anything. Or 21 tourists show up and the operator has to repay 100.

Anyways, initially he gets the price of all the tickets sold. That is 21 each at 50, so $R = 21*50 = 1050$ .

Then, we need to find the probability that all of the 21 tourists show up. In this case, we have to subtract 100 from the revenue.

Each tourist has a 0.02 probability of not showing up. This means that each has a 1-0.02 = 0.98 probability of showing up. So the probability P that all 21 tourists show up is $P = (0.98)^{21} = 0.6542$ .

So, the expected revenue of the tour operator is

$R = 1050 - 100P = 1050 - 100(0.6542) = 984.58$

Rounded up, the expected revenue of the tour operator is 985.

What is the polynomial of 3,4

Sav [38]

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of x in its expression. Constant (non-zero) polynomials, linear polynomials, quadratics, cubics and quartics are polynomials of degree 0, 1, 2 , 3 and 4 respectively. The function f(x)=0 is also a polynomial, but we say that its degree is 'undefined'.
