Hey!

---------------------------------------

Solution:

77.50 = 0.15x + 10

77.50 - 10 + 0.15x + 10 - 10

67.50 = 0.15x

0.15x = 67.50

0.15x/0.15 = 67.50/0.015

x = 450

---------------------------------------

Check:

77.50 = 0.15(450) + 10

77.50 = 67.50 + 10

77.50 = 77.50

---------------------------------------

Answer:

450 text messages can be sent when the monthly charge is $77.50!

A village wishes to measure the quantity of water that is piped to a factory during a typical morning. A gauge on the water line

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

570 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of water is the product of flow rate of water and the time taken. We are to get the volume of water used between 6 am and 9 am, that is for 3 hours (9 - 6).

We are given the flow rate at 6 am and the flow rate at 9 am, but this flow rate changes between 6 am and 9 am. To get the estimate of the water used, Let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 6 am throughout, hence:

$V_L= 100 m^3/h * 3h=300\ m^3$

Also, let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 9 am throughout, hence:

$V_R= 280 m^3/h * 3h=840\ m^3$

To get the best estimate of the total volume, let us find the average of the two values, hence:

$Volume=\frac{V_L+V_R}{2} =\frac{300+840}{2}=570\ m^3$

If there are 17 green marbles in a jar of 65 marbles, what is the probability of drawing 2 green marbles at random without repla

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Option b) $\frac{17}{260}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Total number of marbles = 65

Number of green marbles = 17

We have to find the probability of drawing 2 green marbles at random without replacement.

Formula:

$Probability = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$

$\text{P(Drawing 2 green marbles at random without replacement)} = \\\text{Probability of drawing }1^{st} \text{ green marble}\times \text{Probability of drawing }2^{nd} \text{ green marble}$

$\text{Probability of drawing }1^{st} \text{ green marble} = \displaystyle\frac{17}{65}\\\\\text{Probability of drawing }2^{nd} \text{ green marble} = \displaystyle\frac{16}{64}$

$\text{P(Drawing 2 green marbles at random without replacement)} =\displaystyle\frac{17}{65}\times \frac{16}{64}=\frac{17}{260}$

Option b) $\frac{17}{260}$
