The equation is provided below:

x = cost of DVD player
3x = cost of the movies
$532 = total amount purchased for the DVD player and the movies

$532 = x + 3x
$532 = 4x
$532 / 4 = 4x / 4
$133 = x (cost of the DVD player)

$133 * 3 = $399 (cost of the movies)

To check if the equation is correct:

$532 = $133 + ( 3 * $133)
$532 = $133 + $399
$532 = $532

The correct answer for the cost of the movies will be $399.

Suppose that Cecil, the tightrope walker, can only travel lengths of 5 feet, 6 feet, and 8 feet.
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The two expressions are;

1) -8 ft. + 3 × 6 ft. = 12 feet

2) -6 ft. + 2 × 5 ft. + 8 ft. = 12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The lengths in feet Cecil can travel = 5 feet, 6 feet, and 8 feet

The distances Cecil can travel forward = (positive 5, 6, 8)

Backwards Cecil can travel distances of (-5, -6, -8)

Cecil can go forward past the ladder and return back

Therefore, the number expressions by which Cecil can cross a tightrope 12 feet long are;

1) -8 ft. + 3 × 6 ft. = 12 feet

Which is to go back 8 feet and then to go forward 6 feet three times

2) -6 ft. + 2 × 5 ft. + 8 ft. = 12 feet

Which is to go back 6 feet then to go forward in 5 feet two times and then in forward again in 8 feet.

The circumference of super eight is four times the conference at Circle B which statement about the areas of the circle is true
ICE Princess25 [194]
When you have factors in shapes you must remember:
circumference and perimeter are in one unit measures
area is in squared units
volume is in cubed units

So, when the circumference of A is 4 times that of C there is a factor of 4.
Since we need to know the area the factor 4 will change to a factor of 4² since area is a squared unit.

The solution is 4²=16, the are of circle A is sixteen times the area of circle B.

7. In a state lottery, a player must choose 8 of the numbers from 1 to 40. The lottery commission then performs an experiment th
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:a) P(8 of the players numbers are drawn)=1.3×10^-8

b) P(7 of the players number are drrawn)=3.33×10^-c) P(at least 6 of the players number were drawn)=1.84×10^-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Players has 8 combinations of numbers from 1-40. The outcome S contains all the combinations of 8 out of 40

a) P(8 of the players numbers are drawn)= 1/40/8= 1.3×10^-8

There are one in hundred million chances that the draw numbers are precisely the chosen ones.

b) Number of ways of drawing 78 selected numbers from 1-40=8×(40-7)

8×32

P(7 of the players number are drawn)=8×32/40 =3.33×10^-6.

There are approximately 300,000 chances that 7 of the players numbers are chosen

c) P(at least 6 players numbers are drawn)= 32/2×(8/6) ways to draw.

P(at least 6 players numbers are drawn)=P(all 8 chosen are drawn)+P(7 players numbers drawn)+P(6 chosen are drawn) = 1+ 8 x32/40/8 +[8\6 ×32/2]

P(at least 6 players numbers are drawn) = 1.84×10^-4.

There are approximately 5400chances that at least6 of the numbers drawn are chosen by the player.

Find the commission based on total sales of $98,000 and a commission rate of 1.5%.
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

$1470

Step-by-step explanation:

98,000 \rightarrow 100%

x           \rightarrow 1.5%

98,000(1.5)=x(100)\\\\x=\frac{98000(1.5)}{100}\\\\x=980*1.5\\\\x=1470
