Larry's Lemons is a street vendor business that sells lemonade and lemon bars. A cup of lemonade sells for $2 and a lemon bar se
lls for $1.50. When all related business expenses are included, a cup of lemonade costs $0.25 to prepare and a lemon bar costs $0.20 to prepare.
Last Monday, one of the vendors selling Larry's Lemons sold at least $500 worth of lemonade and lemon bars and its expenses were no more than $100. At least 150 cups of lemonade were sold.
Let x be the number of cups of lemonade sold last Monday and y be the number of lemon bars sold last Monday.
Which ordered pairs representing a combination of cups of lemonade and lemon bars could have been sold last Monday and make sense in the context of the situation?
Select each correct answer.
(160,110)(160,110)
(232.5,200)(232.5,200)
(155,305.5)(155,305.5)
(150,200)(150,200)
(180,100)

1 answer:
We can let x and y represent cups of lemonade and numbers of lemon bars, respectively. Then the constraints are ...
- x ≥ 150
- y ≥ 0
- 2x +1.5y ≥ 500
- 0.25x +0.20y ≤ 100
A graph is shown in the attachment, with the ordered pairs plotted. It is not feasible to sell half cups of lemonade or half lemon bars, so the second and third choices must be excluded. The point (160, 110) falls outside the feasible region, so is not a correct choice.
The correct choices are ...
- (150, 200)
- (180, 100)

Answer:
The probability a person selected random is not suffering from Malaria is 0.725.
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote the events as follows:
X = a person is suffering from Malaria
M = a man
W = a woman
The information provided is:
P (M) = P (W) = 0.50
P (X|M) = 0.10
P (X|W) = 0.45
Compute the probability a person selected random is suffering from Malaria as follows:
Then the probability a person selected random is not suffering from Malaria is:
P (X') = 1 - P (X)
= 1 - 0.275
= 0.725
If you notice the picture below
the composite figure is just a trapezoid sitting on top of a rectangle
and then, the rectangle has a triangular hole in it
so.. get the area of the trapezoid
then get the area of the rectangle, which is just a 12x14
and then get the area of the triangle, which surely you know is 1/2 bh
then, subtract the triangle's area from the rectangle's area
and whatever is left, namely the difference, add that to the area of the trapezoid, and that's the composite's area
namely the area of the trapezoid plus the rectangle's, minus the triangle's
