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

Jake earns $12 for each hour worked. The equation y = 12x can be used to model this situation, where x represents the number of
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer: y is the dependent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, a function is a rule for taking an input and providing an output.

A symbol that stands for an arbitrary input is called an independent variable.

A symbol that stands for an output that depends on the value of a independent variable is called a dependent variable.

y = 12x  } Function

x is the independent variable = arbitrary number of hours worked.

y is the dependent variable because depends on the value of x.

Whilst shopping, the probability that Caroline buys fruit is 0.7.
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Probability that Caroline buys fruit, a CD or both is 0.76.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let event A = Caroline buys fruit, event B = Caroline buys CD, Ac and Bc are complementary events.

Events AB, ABc, AcB and AcBc are jointly exhaustive and disjoint, hence P(AB) + P(ABc) + P(AcB) +P(AcBc) =1.

Events A and B independent, hence Ac and Bc independent too and probability P(AcBc) = P(Ac)*P(Bc) = (1 - P(A))(1-P(B)) = 0.6*0.4 = 0.24.

Required probability P(AB + ABc + AcB ) = P(AB) + P(ABc) + P(AcB) = 1- P(AcBc) = 1 - 0.24 = 0.76.

A ​used-droid dealership buys a droid for ​$2900 and then sells it for ​$4300. What is the percent​ increase?
Anna71 [15]

The percent increase is 48.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Purchase price of used-droid = $2900

Selling price of used=droid = $4300

Profit = Selling price - purchase price

Profit = 4300-2900 = $1400

Percent increase = \frac{Profit}{Purchase\ price}*100

Percent\ increase=\frac{1400}{2900}*100\\\\Percent\ increase=\frac{140000}{2900}\\\\Percent\ increase=48.275\%

Rounding off to nearest hundredth;

Percent increase = 48.28%

The percent increase is 48.28

The profits of mr cash’s company is represented by the equation p(t)=-3t^2+18t-4, where p(t) is the amount of profit in hundreds
eduard
We have that

<span>p(t)=-3t^2+18t-4

using a graphing tool, we can see the maximum of the graph
(see the attached figure)

A) </span><span>In what year of operation does Mr. Cash’s business show maximum profit?

</span>Mr. Cash’s business show maximum profit at year 3 (maximum in the parabole)

<span>B) What is the maximum profit? 

23 (hundred of thousand of dollars) = 2.300.000 dollars

</span>c) What time will it be two late?
 
(This is the time when the graph crosses zero and the profits turn into losses )

5.77 years, or an estimate of about  69 months.
