Answer:

R + 5b = 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Rogers steps include a scale holding five bricks of equal weight and the scale reads 300 pounds.

We want to write an equation relating Rogers weight and the weight of the bricks to the total weight of the bricks to the total weight shown on the scale.

We have been told to use R for Rogers weight and b for the weight of a single brick.

Since Rogers is holding 5 bricks, the weight of 5 bricks will be 5b.

The sum of Rogers weight and the five bricks is equal to 300 pounds.

Therefore, the equation relating them is:

R + 5b = 300

What is the value of the problem below?
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term  = 6* 2^0 =  6

The second term = 6 * 2^ (2-1) = 6*2 = 12

The third term = 6* 2^(3-1) = 6*2^2 = 6*4 = 24

The fourth term = 6* 2^(4-1) = 6* 2^3 = 6*8 = 48

S4  is the sum of the 1st four terms

S4 = 6+ 12+24+ 48 = 90

[6+4=10 points] Problem 2. Suppose that there are k people in a party with the following PMF: • k = 5 with probability 1 4 • k =
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

1). 0.903547

2). 0.275617

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given :

K people in a party with the following :

i). k = 5 with the probability of $\frac{1}{4}$

ii). k = 10 with the probability of $\frac{1}{4}$

iii). k = 10 with the probability $\frac{1}{2}$

So the probability of at least two person out of the 'n' born people in same month is  = 1 - P (none of the n born in the same month)

= 1 - P (choosing the n different months out of 365 days) = 1-\frac{_{n}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^2}

1). Hence P(at least 2 born in the same month)=P(k=5 and at least 2 born in the same month)+P(k=10 and at least 2 born in the same month)+P(k=15 and at least 2 born in the same month)

= \frac{1}{4}\times (1-\frac{_{5}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^5})+\frac{1}{4}\times (1-\frac{_{10}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^{10}})+\frac{1}{2}\times (1-\frac{_{15}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^{15}})

= 0.25 \times 0.618056 + 0.25 \times 0.996132 + 0.5 \times 1

= 0.903547

2).P( k = 10|at least 2 share their birthday in same month)

=P(k=10 and at least 2 born in the same month)/P(at least 2 share their birthday in same month)

= $0.25 \times \frac{0.996132}{0.903547}$

= 0.0.275617

Sam bought an $85.00 jacket for 40% off of the regular price. He also has to pay 5% for tax. How much did he pay for the jacket
Nadusha1986 [10]
55.25. You multiply 0.40 by 85 and you’ll get 34, subtract 85 by 34 and you’ll get 51. Then you multiply 0.05 by 85 and get 4.25. Add 4.25 by 51 and you’ll get 55.25.
