Irina18 [472]

Answer: tea = 15 rupees per kg

sugar= 3 rupees per kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write a system of equations with the information given:

"Two kg of tea and 3 kg of sugar cost rupees 39 in january 1997":

2 t + 3 s =39 (a)

Where:

t= price of 1 kg of tea
s = price of 1 kg of sugar

"in march 1997 the price of the tea increased by 25% (1.25)and the price of the sugar increased by 20%(1.20) and the same quantity of tea and sugar cost rupees 48.30. "

2(t1.25)+3(s1.2) = 48.30 (b)

Solving for t in (b)

2t =39-3s

t = (39 -3s)/2

t = 19.5-1.5s

Replacing the value of t in (b)

2 x ((19.5-1.5s)1.25)+ 3 ( 1.2s) =48.30

2x ( 24.375 -1.875s) +3.6s =48.30

48.75 -3.75s+3.6s= 48.30

48.75-48.30 = 3.75s-3.6s

0.45= 0.15s

0.45/0.15 =s

3 =s

Replacing the value of s in (a)

2 t + 3 (3) =39

2 t + 9 =39

2 t =39 -9

2 t =30

t = 30/2

t= 15

Prices in january:

tea = 15 rupees per kg

sugar= 3 rupees per kg

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Explain the level of uncertainties involve in concept of probability. The next generation of miniaturized wireless capsules with

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

a) the probability that Both motors will operate satisfactorily in the capsule 0.6222

b) the probability that One motor will operate satisfactorily and the other will not is 0.3556

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

total number of motors N = 10

number of motors will not operate satisfactory m = 2

number of motors randomly selected n = 2

let X be number of motors will that will not operate successfully

here, X≅Hyper geometric (x; N,n,m)

The probability mass function of x is;

P (X = x)= { m } {N - m }

{x } {n - x}

⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

{ N }

{ n }

a)

the probability that both motors will operate satisfactorily in the capsule i.e no motor will not operate satisfactory

so

P(X= 0) = { 2 } { 10 - 2 }

{0 } { 2 - 0}

⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

{ 10 }

{ 2 }

so

P (X = 0) = { 2 } { 8}

{ 0 } { 2 }

⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

{ 10 }

{ 2 }

p(P= 0)=1×28 / 45 = 28/45 = 0.6222

Therefore the probability that Both motors will operate satisfactorily in the capsule 0.6222

b)

the probability that one motor will operate satisfactorily and the other will not.

P(X=1) = { 2 } { 10 - 2 }

{ 1 } { 2 - 1 }

⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

{ 10 }

{ 2 }

so

P(X=1) = { 2 } { 8 }

{ 1 } { 1 }

⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

{ 10 }

{ 2 }

P(X=1) = 2×8 / 45 = 16/45 = 0.3556

Therefore the probability that One motor will operate satisfactorily and the other will not is 0.3556

In your biology class, your final grade is based on several things: a lab score, scores on two major tests, and your score on th

Serggg [28]

Answer:

The weighted average is of 69.94.

Step-by-step explanation:

Weighted average:

The weighed average is found multiplying each grade by its respective weight.

The grades, and weights are:

67 on the lab, with a weight of 23% = 0.23

69 on the first major test, with a weight is 21.5% = 0.215

85 on the second major test, with a weight is 21.5% = 0.215.

63 on the final exam, with a weight of 34% = 0.34.

Weighted average:

$A = 0.23*67 + 0.215*69 + 0.215*85 + 0.34*63 = 69.94$

The weighted average is of 69.94.

A low calorie dinner has 480 calories in an 9 ounce serving. What is the unit rate in simplest form? 9/48 160/3 48/9 3/160

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:Hi, the correct answer is $\frac{160}{3}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

As you are being asked for rate and the importat value is the number of calories consumed. We need to simplify the fraction $\frac{480 calories}{9 ounce}$ . Then we simplify.

Note that 480 is divisible by 3 and 9 as well. 480/3 = 160 and 9/3 = 3. Therefore, 480/9 = 160/3.
