According to a recent survey, 50% of people aged 13 and older in the United States are addicted to texting. To simulate choosing

a random sample of 20 people in this population and seeing how many of them are addicted to texting, use a deck of cards. Shuffle the deck well, and then draw one card at a time. A red card means that person is addicted to texting; a black card means he isn’t. Continue until you have drawn 20 cards (without replacement) for the sample.

Answer:

It is not valid 49.02% instead of 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

If you don't replace the cards,the probability of obtaining a person that is addicted to email is no longer 50% after the first drawn card.

If you drawn a red card there are 25 red cards and 26 black cards then the probability of 25/25+26=25/51 ≅0.4902 = 49.02 instead of 50%

All computers are on sale for 10% off the original price. If x is the original price of the computer, then the function that rep
UkoKoshka [18]

We are given the functions:

P (x) = 0.9 x

C (x) = x – 150

We can generate two composition functions from the given two functions in the form of:

<span>P [C (x)]                and C [P (x)]</span>

Since the problem states that we are to find for the final price after a 10% discount is followed by a $150 coupon then we should find for:

C [P (x)]

The value of C [P (x)] can obtained by plugging in the value of P (x) into x in the equation of C (x), therefore:

C [P (x)] = [0.9 x] – 150

<span>C [P (x)] = 0.9 x – 150                      (ANSWER)</span>

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Step 4

part a: no answer yet still having trouble showing my work

part b:

-0.125(x-24)^2+50

-0.125(x-24)(x-24)+50

-0.125(x^2-24x-24x+576)+50

-0.125(x^2-48x+576)+50

-0.125x^2+6x-75+50

-0.125x^2+6x-22

a=-0.125

b=6

c=-22

part c: yes he went through

part d:

plug in roots (4,0) and (44,0)

if x is 4 and y is 0

0=-0.125(4)^2+6(4)-22

0=-2+24-22

0=-2+2

0=0

if x=44 and y=0

0=-0.125(44)^2+6(44)-22

0=-242+264-22

0=-242+242

0=0

How can i determine whether or not a polygon has symmetry?
mezya [45]

Answer with Explanation:

If a polygon has symmetry, then it has reflective portion over the line of symmetry.

Note that a rectangle doesn't have the diagonal lines of symmetry since its portion doesn't overlap another.

The simplest symmetry is Reflection Symmetry (sometimes called Line Symmetry or Mirror Symmetry). It is easy to see, because one half is the reflection of the other half.

I hope it will help you.

Naty bought a dress for $24.95 and a skirt for $14.95.
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Total items = $39.90

Sales tax amount = $3.7905

Total cost = $43.691

The clerk's error is using 9.5 as sales tax amount instead of finding 9.5% of the total items

Step-by-step explanation:

Dress = $24.95

Skirt = $14.95

steps the clerk completed.

Step 1: 24.95 + 14.95 = 39.90

Step 2: 39.90 +9.5 = 49.40

Correct steps:

Total items = dress + skirt

= $24.95 + $14.95

= $39.90

Sales tax = 9.5%

Sales tax amount = 9.5% of total

= 9.5/100 × $39.90

= 0.095 × 39.90

= $3.7905

Total cost = Total + sales tax amount

= $39.90 + $3.7905

= $43.6905

To the nearest hundredth

= $43.691

Sales tax is the amount of money imposed by government on the sales of some items

Total cost is the cost of all items including sales tax
