In this problem, we let x be the number of half gallons of milk the store bought, and x-12 be the remaining half gallonsWe use the equation profit = revenue-cost
 88.08=4.02(x-12)-2.60x88.08=4.02x-48.24-2.6x1.42x=88.08+48.24=136.32x=136.32/1.42=96Hence, the number of half gallons of milk the store bought is 96

A CD has a 5% chance of being a smash hit and profiting $5.2 million, a 50% chance of being a modest success and profiting $0.9
Zinaida [17]
The probability of profiting $5.2 million is 5% = 0.05

The probability of profiting $0.9 million is 50% = 0.5

The probability of breaking even, meaning no profit gain, is 45% = 0.45

Expected profit values of the CD is given by
(0.05×5.2) + (0.5×0.9) + (0.45×0) = 0.26+0.45+0 = 0.71 million

The sum of two numbers is 300 and the two numbers have a ratio of 20:10. Find the larger number.
Komok [63]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be 20x and 10x

Then by the question,

20x + 10x = 300

or, 30x = 300

or, x = 300/ 30

x = 10

Now the larger number

20x = 20* 10 = 200.

Hope it will help you :)
