Three workers at a fast food restaurant pack the take-out chicken dinners. John packs 45% of the dinners, Mary packs 25% of the

dinners and Sue packs the remaining dinners. Of the dinners John packs 4% do not include a salt packet. If Mary packs the dinner 2% of the time the salt is omitted. Lastly, 3% of the dinners do not include salt if Sue does the packing. If you find there is not salt in your purchased dinner what is the probability that Mary packed your dinner?

Answer:0.5625

Step-by-step explanation:

If John packed the dinner

probability of salt less dinner=\frac{45}{100} \times \frac{4}{100}=0.018

If Mary packed the dinner

probability  of salt-less dinner =\frac{25}{100} \times \frac{2}{100}=0.005

If sue packed the dinner

probability  of salt-less dinner =\frac{30}{100} \times \frac{3}{100}=0.009

Total proportion of salt-less dinner=0.032

probability that dinner is salt-less and mary packed it=\frac{0.018}{0.032}=0.5625

\bf 7~~,~~\stackrel{7+6}{13}~~,~~\stackrel{13+6}{19}~~,~~\stackrel{19+6}{25}\qquad \impliedby \qquad \textit{common difference "d" is 6}

we know all it's doing is adding 6 over again to each term to get the next one, so then

\bf \stackrel{\textit{Recursive Formula}}{\stackrel{\textit{nth term}}{f(n)}~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{the term before it}}{f(n-1)}~~~~\stackrel{\textit{plus 6}}{+~~~~6}}

now for the explicit one

\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence} \\\\ a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad \begin{cases} n=n^{th}\ term\\ a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\ d=\textit{common difference}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a_1=7\\ d=6 \end{cases} \\\\\\ a_n=7+(n-1)6\implies a_n=7+6n-6\implies \stackrel{\textit{Explicit Formula}}{\stackrel{f(n)}{a_n}=6n+1} \\\\\\ therefore\qquad \qquad f(10)=6(10)+1\implies f(10)=61

I’ve been having trouble with PEMDAS and exponents for a while. Could someone walk me through how to do this so maybe I can appl
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

98.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Parenthesis
  • Exponents
  • Multiplication
  • Division
  • Addition
  • Subtraction

You have to do it in order so you can get the correct answer. Do the problem in the parenthesis first. 6 ÷ 3 = 2.

It should look like this:

7² x 2.

Then, do your exponents. 7² is just basically 7 x 7. It equals 49.

Now, it should look like this:

49 x 2. Multiply 49 x 2, and your answer should be 98.

Slope = 1, y-intercept = -4 ??
dalvyx [7]
Slope (m) = 1
Y-intercept (b) = -4

Formula: y = mx + b
To put it in the y=mx+b formula, you just have to plug it in so the answer would be...

y = 1x + -4

Hope that helped
