kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

a. 10

b. 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The t-shirts comes in 5 sizes (Small,medium,large, extra large and extra extra large) and two colors orange and black. The total different type of shirts are 5*2=10 different type of t-shirts.Also if we make sample space of all shirts we can assess the total different type of t-shirts. sample space=S={small orange,medium orange,large orange,XL orange,XXL orange,small black,medium black,large black,XL black,XXL black}. n(S)=total different type of shirts=10.

b. P( large orange t-shirt)=n(large orange t-shirt)/n(S)=1/10=0.10.

The day length in Manila, Philippines, varies over time in a periodic way that can be modeled by a trigonometric function.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

  • L(t) = 727.775 -51.875cos(2π(t +11)/365)
  • 705.93 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The midline of the function is the average of the peak values:

  (675.85 +779.60)/2 = 727.725 . . . minutes

The amplitude of the function is half the difference of the peak values:

  (779.60 -675.85)/2 = 51.875 . . . minutes

Since the minimum of the function is closest to the origin, we choose to use the negative cosine function as the parent function.

Where t is the number of days from 1 January, we want to shift the graph 11 units to the left, so we will use (t+11) in our function definition.

Since the period is 365 days, we will use (2π/365) as the scale factor for the argument of the cosine function.

Our formula is ...

  L(t) = 727.775 -51.875cos(2π(t +11)/365)

__

b) L(55) ≈ 705.93 minutes

Systems of linear equations ; elimination method<br><br><br> pls help&lt;3
Basile [38]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

System

  • 10s +25t = 11700
  • s -2t = 0

Solution

  • s = 520
  • t = 260
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Let s and t represent single-entry and three-day tickets, respectively. These variables represent the numbers we're asked to find: "how many of each [ticket type] he sold."

We are given the revenue from each ticket type, and the total revenue, so we can write an equation based on the relation between prices, numbers sold, and revenue:

... 10s +25t = 11700 . . . . . equation for total revenue

We are also given a relation between the two number of tickets sold:

... s = 2t . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . twice as many single tickets were sold as 3-day

We can rearrange this second equation to put it into standard form. That makes it easier to see what to do to eliminate a variable.

... s -2t = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2t to put into standard form

So, our system of equations is ...

  • 10s +25t = 11700
  • s -2t = 0

<em>What </em>elimination<em> is all about</em>

The idea with "elimination" is to find a multiple of one (or both) equations such that the coefficients of one of the variables are opposite. Then, the result of adding those multiples will be to eliminate that variable.

Here, we can multiply the second equation by -10 to make the coefficient of s be -10, the opposite of its value in the first equation. (We could also multiply the first equation by -0.1 to achieve the same result. This would result in a non-integer value for the coefficient of t, but the solution process would still work.)

Alternatively, we can multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 25 to give two equations with 50t and -50t as the t-variable terms. These would cancel when added, so would eliminate the t variable. (It seems like more work to do that, so we'll choose the first option.)

<em>Solution by elimination</em>

... 10s +25t = 11700 . . . . our first equation

... -10s +20t = 0 . . . . . . . second equation of our system, multiplied by -10

... 45t = 11700 . . . . . . . . .the sum of these two equations (s-term eliminated)

... t = 11700/45 = 260 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

... s = 2t = 520 . . . . . . . . . . use the relationship with s to find s

_____

<em>Solution using your number sense</em>

As soon as you see there is a relation between single-day tickets and 3-day tickets, you can realize that all you need to do is bundle the tickets according to that relation, then find the number of bundles. Here, 2 single-day tickets and 1 three-day ticket will bundle to give a package worth 2×$10 + $25 = $45. Then the revenue of $11700 will be $11700/$45 = 260 packages of tickets. That amounts to 260 three-day tickets and 520 single-day tickets.

(You may notice that our elimination solution effectively computes this same result, where "t" and the number of "packages" is the same value (since there is 1 "t" in the package).)

Line p passes through A(-2, -4) and has a slope of 1/2 What is the standard form of the equation for line p?
yarga [219]
Point slope form is y-(-4) = 1/2(x-(-2)

y+4 =1/2 (x+2)

now the standard form 2y+8=x+2
so -x+2y=-6 is the equation for line p in standard form

A. The number of fabric-pattern-color combinations is 4 * 13 * 9 = 468

B. P(1st choice) = no of novels / total books = 3/6 = 1/2
    P(2nd choice) = no of remaining novels/ total remaining books = 2/5
    P(both novels) = 1/2 * 2/5 = 1/5          (without replacement assumed)

C. P(1st choice) = no of biographies / total books = 2/6 = 1/3
    P(2nd choice) = no of remaining biographies/ total remaining books =        1/5
    P(both biographies) = 1/3 * 1/5 = 1/15          (without replacement                assumed)

D. P(1st choice) = no of history books / total books = 1/6
    P(2nd choice) = no of novels/ total remaining books = 3/5
    P(a history, then a novel) = 1/6 * 3/5 = 1/10          (without replacement assumed)
