Answer:

0.66 = 66%

Step-by-step explanation:

If we know that a odd-numbered disk is selected, we know that the number is 1, 3 or 5.

So, if it is a red disk, is can be number 1 or 3, so we have two possibilities.

If it is a yellow disk, it needs to be number 5, so we have just one possibility.

We have a total of 3 possibilities, and 2 of them are with red disks, so the probability is 2/3 = 0.66 = 66%

Find the unit rate.kilometer in17hourEnter the correct answer in the box.
Nuetrik [128]

The question asks for the unit rate when 1/4 of a kilometer is covered in 1/3 of an hour.

Recall that rate is the quotient of two quantities. In our case the numerator is the distance (1/4) of a kilometer, and the denominator is the time: 1/3 of an hour.

So, we perform the following division of fractions:

1/4 diided by 1/3 which is the same as: 1/4 times 3/1 = 3/4

and since we are asked for the UNIT rate, we do the actual division:

The unit rate is 0.75 km per hour.

Answer:

(a) Only cooked food?

6

(b) Only operate the cash register?

13

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we have the following information:

15 cooked​ food

12 washed​ dishes

21 operated the cash​ register

7 cooked food and washed​ dishes

6 cooked food and operated the cash​ register

6washed dishes and operated the cash​ register

4 did all three​ jobs

7 did none of these jobs

(a) Only cooked food?

This would be calculated as

Number of people that cooked food + Number of people that did all three jobs - Number of people that cooked food and washed​ dishes - Number of people that cooked food and operated the cash​

= 15 + 4 - 7 - 6

= 19 - 13

= 6

Therefore ,only 6 people cooked food

(b) Only operate the cash register?

This would be calculated as

Number of people that operated cash register + Number of people that did all three jobs - Number of people that cooked food and operated the cash​ register - Number of people that washed dishes and operated the cash​ register

= 21 + 4 - 6 - 6

= 25 - 12

= 13

Therefore, only 13 people operated cash register.

The principal P is borrowed and the loan's future value A at time t is given. Determine the loan's simple interest rater.
Anni [7]
Interest rate = 7%

I= PRT where I is the interest earned, p is the principal, r is rate as a decimal, and t is time in years.


A - P will give us the interest earned.

12,150 - 9,000 = 3,150

3150 = (9000)(r)(5)
3150 = 45,000r
r = 0.07
r = 7%
