Bumek [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let y represent number of years...

9 ft tall = (12 * 9) = 108 inches

10 ft tall = (12 * 10) = 120 inches

Type A : 9 ft (or 108 inches) and grows 6 inches per year..

108 + 6y

Type B : 10 ft (or 120 inches) and grows 3 inches per yr

120 + 3y

how many years will it take them to be the same height...so when will they be equal....so set them equal and solve for y

108 + 6y = 120 + 3y

6y - 3y = 120 - 108

3y = 112

y = 112/3

y = 37 1/3 years....or 37 years and 4 months <====

check...

108 + 6(37 1/3) = 120 + 3(37 1/3)

108 + 6(112/3) = 120 + 3(112/3)

108 + 672/3 = 120 + 336/3

672/3 - 336/3 = 120 - 108

336/3 = 112

112 = 112 (correct)

Would the answer for 36 be $9.88 or $9.75?
ludmilkaskok [199]

total bill before any discounts $13.

she is a student, so she gets 20% off.

she brought an item of clothing, so she gets 5% off.

so she's really getting 20% + 5% off, namely 25% off her bill.

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{25\% of 13}}{\left( \cfrac{25}{100} \right)13\implies 3.25}~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{bill with all discounts}}{13-3.25\implies 9.75}

A greenhouse is offering a sale on tulip bulbs because they have inadvertently mixed pink bulbs with red bulbs. If​ 40% of the b
True [87]

Answer:

The probabilty of having at least one pink bulb if 4 bulbs are purchased is 13%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion of pink bulbs is p=0.4.

If X is the amount of pink bulbs in a group of 4 bulbs, we can model this as a binomial distribution problem.

The probability that at least one of the bulbs is pink is P(X≥1)

P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X=0)=1-(\binom{4}{0}p^0(1-p)^4)\\\\P(X\geq 1)=(1-p)^4=0.6^4=0.1296

The probabilty of having at least one pink bulb if 4 bulbs are purchased is 13%.
