The Hendricksons are in charge of bringing treats for 50 football players. They brought 3 coolers of popsicles and 2 coolers of

ice cream sandwiches. Each player is going to randomly select a cooler from which to get their treat. Which statement best predicts how many football players will get a popsicle? Choose 1 answer:
A. There will be exactly 20 football players who get a popsicle.
B. There will be close to 20 football players but not exactly 20 who get a popsicle.
C. There will be exactly 30 football players who get a popsicle.
D. There will be close to 30 football players who get a popsicle but not exactly 30 who get a popsicle.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 coolers in total, so if you divide 50 by 5 you get 10. Then, since there are 3 cooloers of popsicles, you multiply 10 by 3 and you get 30. There is always a chance of getting something else, so it will be close to 30 but not exactly.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

           D.   There will be close to 30 football players who get a popsicle but not exactly 30 who get a popsicle.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

There are a total of 3 coolers of popsicles and 2 coolers of ice cream sandwiches.

This means that the probability of getting a popsicles for a student is:3/5

Similarly the probability of getting a popsicles among 50 students is:

                             (3/5)×50

                            =30

As we know that the probability is just a estimation or possibility of an outcome.It does not provide us the exact number.

                     Hence, Option: D is the correct answer.

What is the measure of E
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The measure of angle E is:

m∠E = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The triangle ΔDEF

It is stated that DE=EF and G is the midpoint of EF.

It means the midpoint G has converted the triangle into two equal right-angles triangles ΔDEG and ΔDFG with the right-angle at G.

Given

m∠GDE = 10°

As the right-angle triangle, ΔDEG lies at the right-angle G.

So, m∠DGE = 90°

as

m∠GDE = 10°

m∠DGE = 90°

m∠E = ?

We know that the sum of angles of a triangle is 180°.

m∠GDE + m∠DGE  + m∠E = 180°

10° + 90° + m∠E = 180°

100 + m∠E = 180°

m∠E = 180° - 100

m∠E = 80°

Therefore,

The measure of angle E is: m∠E = 80°

In which graph is y not a function of x
balu736 [363]

A function is a relation that associates each element x of a set X, to a single element y of another set Y.

Circle is not a function of x. For x = 0 we have y = -7 and y = 7.

Martin was given this expression to simplify: 23x + xy – y + 3y + 5 – 20x + 6xy He simplified the expression to: 43x + 7xy −3y W
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

23x + xy - y + 3y + 5 - 20x + 6xy = 23x - 20x + xy  + 6xy -y + 3y + 5

                                                     = 3x + 7xy + 2y + 5

Errors:1) The combined coefficients of the x terms should be 3x, not 43x

2) The coefficients of the y terms have been multiplied.

3) The constant was left off.

3. The minimum payment on a credit card is based on the total amount owed. A credit card company uses
shutvik [7]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum payment on a credit card is based on the total amount owed. A credit card company uses the following rules: For a bill less than $20 the entire amount is due, for a bill of at least $20 but less than $500, the minimum due is $20. For a bill of at least $500 but less than $1000 the minimum due is $40 and for a bill of at least $1000 but less than $1500 the minimum due is $80 dollars. For a bill of $1500 or more the minimum due is 1/10th of the bill.

a. Write a function to describe the minimum payment due.  

b. What is the minimum payment due if the bill is $345?  

c. What is the minimum payment due if the bill is $1410?  

d. What is the minimum payment due if the bill is $1700?

Solution:

Let B represent the minimum due payment for a bill in dollars and let x represent the bill in dollars. Therefore:

For x < 20, B = x

For 20 ≤ x < 500, B = 20

For 500 ≤ x < 1000, B = 40

For 1000 ≤ x < 1500, B = 80

For x ≥ 1500, B = (1/10)x

a)

B(x)=\left \{ {{x\ \ \ x

b) For 20 ≤ x < 500, B = 20

Therefore if the bill is $345 (x = 345), the minimum payment due would be $20

c) For 1000 ≤ x < 1500, B = 80

Therefore if the bill is $1410 (x = 1410), the minimum payment due would be $80

d) For x ≥ 1500, B = (1/10)x

Therefore if the bill is $1700 (x = 1700), the minimum payment due would be $170 (1/10 * 1700)
