A businessman bought a dealership that is incurring a loss of $500,000 a year. He decided to strategize in order to turn the bus

iness around. In addition to the $500,000 annual loss, his fixed cost for running the dealership on a monthly basis is $5,000. The number of cars sold per week and their probabilities mimic the outcomes of three coins being flipped. The number of cars sold in a week was observed to be the same as the number of tails that appear in a three coin flip. See the distribution:. Number of Tails 0 |1 |2 |3. probablity 1/8 | 3/8 | 3/8 | 1/8

Based from the given data, the expected number of cars sold in one week is B. 1.5.

The equation to solve the problem would be like this. 0*1/8 + 1*3/8 + 2*3/8 + 3*1/8 = 3/2 which when simplified is 1.5.

Look at the remaining trees and the number of oranges they produced.
41790 oranges were produced.
Each tree produced 210 oranges.
The number of remaining trees is 41790/210.
Originally, there we 5 more trees.
The original number of trees is 41790/210 + 5

The equation is
t = 41790/210 + 5

Now we evaluate the right side.
t = 199 + 5
t = 204

The original number of orange trees is 204,

in the figure below trianglePQM and triangleQRP are right triangles. the measure of lineQM is 6 and the measure of lineQP is 8.
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Option 4 is correct. The length of PR is 6.4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure it is noticed that the triangle PQR and triangle MQR.

Let the length of PR be x.

Pythagoras formula

hypotenuse^2=base^2+perpendicular^2

Use pythagoras formula for triangle PQM.

PM^2=QM^2+PQ^2

PM^2=(6)^2+(8)^2

PM^2=36+64

PM^2=100

PM=10

The value of PM is 10. The length of PR is x, so the length of MR is (10-x).

Use pythagoras formula for triangle PQR.

PQ^2=QR^2+PR^2

(8)^2=QR^2+x^2

64-x^2=QR^2                   .....(1)

Use pythagoras formula for triangle MQR.

MQ^2=QR^2+MR^2

(6)^2=QR^2+(10-x)^2

36=QR^2+x^2-20x+100

36-x^2+20x-100=QR^2        .... (2)

From equation (1) and (2) we get

36-x^2+20x-100=64-x^2

20x-64=64

20x=128

x=6.4

Therefore length of PR is 6.4 units and option 4 is correct.
