Answer:

A)Equation that represents the situation :  7x+2x=4500

B)Regular gas sold = 7x = 7(500)=3500

Premium gas sold = 2x =2(500)=1000

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The ratio of gallons of regular gas sold to gallons of premium gas sold is 7:2.

Let the ratio be x

Regular gas sold = 7x

Premium gas sold = 2x

We are also given that A gas station sells a total of 4500 gallons of regular and premium gas in one day.

So, 7x+2x=4500

9x=4500

x=500

A)Equation that represents the situation :  7x+2x=4500

B)Regular gas sold = 7x = 7(500)=3500

Premium gas sold = 2x =2(500)=1000

4 employees drive to work in the same car. the workers claim they were late to work because of a flat tire. their managers ask t
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The required probability is 0.015625.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

There number of tires are 4.

The number of workers are 4.

The probability that individual select front drivers side tire = \frac{1}{4}

The probability that they all select front drivers side,tire is: \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{256}

Similarly,

The probability that they all select front passenger side, tire is: \frac{1}{256}

The probability that they all select rear driver side,tire is: \frac{1}{256}

The probability that they all select rear passenger side, tire is: \frac{1}{256}

Hence, the probability that all four workers select the same​ tire = \frac{1}{256}+ \frac{1}{256}+\frac{1}{256}+\frac{1}{256}

the probability that all four workers select the same​ tire = \frac{4}{256}=\frac{1}{64}=0.015625

Hence, the required probability is 0.015625.
