Answer:

39 investors contributed $6,000, and 21 investors contributed $12,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that x investors contributed $6,000, and y investors contributed $12,000.

x + y = 60

6,000x + 12,000y = 486,000

x + 2y = 81

x + y = 60

y = 21

x + 21 = 60

x = 39

So, 39 investors contributed $6,000, and 21 investors contributed $12,000.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Event A = { Chevrolet , Buick }

Event B = { Ford , Lincoln }

Event C = { Toyota }

Step-by-step explanation:

- Mutually exclusive events are such that their probability of coming true simultaneously is zero. If we consider set notations we could say.

                             P (A & B) = P (B & C) = P (A & C) = 0

- In our case these events A,B, and C can be defined as:

Veronika [31]

Answer:

(13/10)H

got it on khan academy brainliest pls thx uwu

Remember that 30% in fraction form is 33/100

The amount of health points (H) restored would depend on the amount of the current H so it means it would add 30% of the current which we can write as:

(30/100)H

And since it would add that to the current total we can right the current total as:

(100/100)H

So our equation would be

=(30/100)H + (100/100)H

=(130/100)H

=(13/10)H
