<span># of books = 4 ; original cost = 4*9=36; savings = 0.10*36= 3.60
</span>
<span># of books = 2 ;original cost = 2*20=40; savings = 0.20*40= 8.00

</span>
<span>Percent savings:
original total cost=$76
Total savings = $11.60
Percent savings: 11.60/76 = 0.1526..= 15.26%</span>

20 points.<br> Please answer and explain if possible.<br> Multiply.<br> -2y^2 * xy^4
Readme [11.4K]

When the bases are the same, you can combine the exponents.

x³   [x is where the base is]

For example:

x³ · y² = x³y²   You can't simplify this anymore because they have different bases/variables

[when you multiply a variable with an exponent by a variable with an exponent, you add the exponents together] so:

x² · x³ = x^{2+3}=x^5

[when you multiply a variable with an exponent by an exponent, you multiply the exponents together] so:

(x³)²=x^{3*2}=x^6

-2y^2*xy^4=-2x(y^{2+4})=-2xy^6

How many times does 5.4 go into 60 if it starts at -18?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

14 \frac{4}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

starting at -18 you must add 5.4 until you reach 60

-18 + 5.4 = -12.6          once (1)

-12.6 + 5.4 = -7.2         twice (2)

-7.2 + 5.4 = -1.8            thrice (3)

-1.8 + 5.4 = 3.6              fourth (4)

3.6 + 5.4 = 9                  fifth (5)

9 + 5.4 = 14.4                 sixth (6)

14.4 + 5.4 = 19.8             seventh (7)

19.8 + 5.4 = 25.2            eighth (8)

25.2 + 5.4 = 30.6            ninth (9)

30.6 + 5.4 = 36                tenth (10)

36 + 5.4 = 41.4                 eleventh (11)

41.4 + 5.4 = 46.8               twelth (12)

46.8 + 5.4 = 52.2               thirteenth (13)

52.2 + 5.4 = 57.6                fourteenth (14)

since 57.6 + 5.4 is over 60, we need to find the difference in how much we need

57.6 - 60 = -2.4

we need 2.4 so subtract by 5.4

5.4 - 2.4 = 3

therefore we should divide

\frac{2.4}{5.4} = 14.444...

which means it goes into 60 (starting at -18) 14.444... repeating times

another way to find the answer is

add 18 + 60

18 + 60 = 78

78/5.4 = 14.444... repeating or 14 \frac{4}{9}

hope this helps:)

A local animal rescue organization receives an average of 0.55 rescue calls per hour. Use the Poisson distribution to find the p
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

B) 0.894

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

\mu is the mean in the given interval.

A local animal rescue organization receives an average of 0.55 rescue calls per hour.

This means that \mu = 0.55

Probability that during a randomly selected hour, the organization will receive fewer than two calls.

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

In which

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}

P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-0.55}*(0.55)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.577

P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-0.55}*(0.55)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.317

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.577 + 0.317 = 0.894
