Answer:

   a) The cost of ribeye steak dinners is $ 16.96.

   b) The cost of grilled salmon dinners is $ 23.37.

Explanation:

 Let the cost for ribeye steak dinners  be m and cost for grilled salmon dinners  be n.

 A waitress sold 10 ribeye steak dinners and 18 grilled salmon dinners, totaling $590.39 on a particular day.

So, we have    

         10 m + 18 n = 590.39 -------equation 1

Another day she sold 22 ribeye steak dinners and 9 grilled salmon dinners, totaling $583.49

So, we have    

         22 m + 9 n = 583.49 -------equation 2

 equation 2 x 2

       44 m + 18 n = 1166.98 -------equation 3

 equation 3 - equation 1

        44 m + 18 n - (  10 m + 18 n ) = 1166.98 - 590.39

         m = 16.96 $

  Substituting in equation 1

        22 x 16.96 + 9 n = 583.49

          n = 23.37 $

   a) The cost of ribeye steak dinners is $ 16.96.

   b) The cost of grilled salmon dinners is $ 23.37.

Let x be the number of successes throughout n independent repetitions of a random experiment having probability of success p=1/4
Llana [10]

To answer problems like this you have to use binomial:

P (x > 1) = 1 – p (0 < x < 1) > .7 

So:

1 – p (0) – p (1) > .7 

1 – (3/ 4) ^n – (3/ 4) ^n (n – 1 ) (1/ 4) > .7 

Therefore n > 5.185, and the smallest value of n so that we can satisfy the given condition is 6 (rounded up)

Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form for the graph<br><br> Please helppp
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

y=-4/3+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Sin the slope is going up to the left we can already infer that it is going to be a negative. Still we do the equation y2-y1/x2-x1. In this case 0 is x1 and 2 is y1, 3 is x2, and -2 is y2. Once inserted into the equation you get -2-2/3-0 which equals -4/3 and the y intercept is 2 since thats the point shown were it intercepts the y-axis
