Answer:

He needs to work for 40 whole hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the amount a Tv will cost Bob in terms of the number of hours he needs to work.

Let’s look at the total cost he has to pay.

a. $500

b. 8% tax = 8/100 * 500 = $40

c. He is paying 2 bills of $35 each making a total of 2 * $35 = $70

The total amount he is to pay is thus; 500 + 40 + 70 = $610

Let’s look at his income ;

a. Bonus $45

b. Birthday gift $85

The total amount of money he has asides his salary to offset the bill is 45 + 85 = $130

The balance to pay from his salary would be $610 - $130 = $480

The number of hours he has to work since he earns $12 per hour would be 480/12 = 40 hours of work

Answer:

40 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of TV = $540

(8/100) x 500

Breaking down further,

(2/25) x 500= 1000/25= $40

Therefore, the cost of the TV is $500 + $40= $540

Bonus= $45

Birthday gift= $85

Total income = $130

Bills= $35 x 2 = $70

Total expenses= $70

Net income= $130 - $70 = $60

Remember, TV costs $540

So, $540 - $60 = $480.

If Bill makes $12 an hour, how many hours will he have to work to pay for $480?

= $480/$12= 40 hours.

A company that produces fine crystal knows from experience that 13% of its goblets have cosmetic flaws and must be classified as
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

(a) The probability that only one goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.3888.

(b) The probability that at least two goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.1776.

(c) The probability that at most five must be selected to find four that are not seconds is 0.9453.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of seconds in the batch.

The probability of the random variable <em>X</em> is, <em>p</em> = 0.31.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> and <em>p</em>.

The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...

(a)

Compute the probability that only one goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets as follows:

P(X=1)={6\choose 1}0.13^{1}(1-0.13)^{6-1}\\=6\times 0.13\times 0.4984\\=0.3888

Thus, the probability that only one goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.3888.

(b)

Compute the probability that at least two goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets as follows:

P (X ≥ 2) = 1 - P (X < 2)

              =1-{6\choose 0}0.13^{0}(1-0.13)^{6-0}-{6\choose 1}0.13^{1}(1-0.13)^{6-1}\\=1-0.4336+0.3888\\=0.1776

Thus, the probability that at least two goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.1776.

(c)

If goblets are examined one by one then to find four that are not seconds we need to select either 4 goblets that are not seconds or 5 goblets including only 1 second.

P (4 not seconds) = P (X = 0; n = 4) + P (X = 1; n = 5)

                            ={4\choose 0}0.13^{0}(1-0.13)^{4-0}+{5\choose 1}0.13^{1}(1-0.13)^{5-1}\\=0.5729+0.3724\\=0.9453

Thus, the probability that at most five must be selected to find four that are not seconds is 0.9453.

What is the value of f(7.5) when f(x)=2x+7
Ivan

Hey there!!

Given :

f ( x ) = 2x + 7

Find f ( 7.5 )

Now, we will need to substitute the value of 7.5 in place of x

f(7.5) = 2(7.5) + 7

f(7.5) = 15 + 7

f(7.5) = 22

Hope my answer helps!
