Answer:

Cost per Electricity Unit= $0.61

Cost per Gas Unit= $0.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose,

Cost per Electricity Unit: e

Cost per Gas Unit: g

for the first month condition, equation would be

600*e+100*g=388...........................................(i)

and for the next month condition, equation would be like

400*e+150*g=277...........................................(ii)

By solving both linear equations simultaneously, we get

e=0.61    and     g=0.22

Suppose that 40 percent of the drivers stopped at State Police checkpoints in Storrs on Spring Weekend show evidence of driving
lesantik [10]

Answer:

a) 0.778

b) 0.9222

c) 0.6826

d) 0.3174

e) 2 drivers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sample size, n = 5

P = 40% = 0.4

a) Probability that none of the drivers shows evidence of intoxication.

P(x=0) = ^nC_x P^x (1-P)^n^-^x

P(x=0) = ^5C_0  (0.4)^0 (1-0.4)^5^-^0

P(x=0) = ^5C_0 (0.4)^0 (0.60)^5

P(x=0) = 0.778

b) Probability that at least one of the drivers shows evidence of intoxication would be:

P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X < 1)

= 1 - P(X = 0)

= 1 - ^5C_0 (0.4)^0 * (0.6)^5

= 1 - 0.0778

= 0.9222

c) The probability that at most two of the drivers show evidence of intoxication.

P(x≤2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

^5C_0  (0.4)^0  (0.6)^5 + ^5C_1  (0.4)^1  (0.6)^4 + ^5C_2  (0.4)^2  (0.6)^3

= 0.6826

d) Probability that more than two of the drivers show evidence of intoxication.

P(x>2) = 1 - P(X ≤ 2)

= 1 - [^5C_0  (0.4)^0  (0.6)^5 + ^5C_1  (0.4)^1  (0.6)^4 + ^5C_2 * (0.4)^2  (0.6)^3]

= 1 - 0.6826

= 0.3174

e) Expected number of intoxicated drivers.

To find this, use:

Sample size multiplied by sample proportion

n * p

= 5 * 0.40

= 2

Expected number of intoxicated drivers would be 2

The price of a shirt is marked down from $12.50 to $10,00. What is the percent decrease of the shirt?
choli [55]

Answer: 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, The price of a shirt is marked down from $12.50 to $10.00.

Previous price = $12.50

New price = $10.00

Change in price = Previous price - New price

= $12.50 - $10.00

= $2.50

Now, the percent decrease of the shirt = \dfrac{\text{Change in price}}{\text{Prevoius price}}\times100

=\dfrac{2.50}{12.50}\times100\\\\=20\%

Hence, the percent decrease of the shirt = 20%.
