the morgan famili and the alexander family each ised their sprinkles last summer. the water output was 20. l per hour. The water

output rate for the Alexander family ‘s sprinkler was 40 L per hour. The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 50 hours, resulting in total water output of 1400 L. How long was each sprinkler used?

Answer:

number of hours  Alexander family ‘s sprinkler work = 20

number of hours  Morgan family ‘s sprinkler work = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

water output rate for the Alexander family ‘s sprinkler = 40 L  

water output rate for the Morgan family ‘s sprinkler = 20 L

Suppose, number of hours  Alexander family ‘s sprinkler work = x

Suppose, number of hours  Morgan family ‘s sprinkler work = y

Equation1

x + y = 50

Equation 2

40x + 20y = 1400

x = 50 - y

Put this value of x in equation 2

40(50-y) + 20y = 1400

2000 - 40y + 20y = 1400

-20y = 1400 - 2000

-20y = -600

y = 30

Put this value of y in equation 1 to get the value of x

x + 30 = 50

x = 50 - 30

x = 20

A basketball player has made​ 70% of his foul shots during the season. If he shoots 3 foul shots in​ tonight's game, what is the
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

There is a 34.3% probability that he makes all of the​ shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each foul shot that he takes during the game, there are only two possible outcomes. Either he makes it, or he misses. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

n = 3, p = 0.7

What is the probability that he makes all of the​ shots?

This is P(X = 3).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.7)^{3}.(0.3)^{0} = 0.343

There is a 34.3% probability that he makes all of the​ shots.

7. What's the sum of 2/5 and 2/4?
NISA [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5+2/4 (find common denominator)

The common denominator is 20

2/5 is 8/20 (multiply by 4)

2/4 is 10/20 (multiply by 5)

8/20+10/20 is 18/20

If you simplify 18/20 this would by 9/10 if you divide by 2

so the total is 18/20 or 9/10 simplified

Hope this helps!!!!

Have a nice day :)
