Answer:

The rental cost of one movie is $2.25 and the rental cost of one video game is $6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rental cost of 1 movie be m.

Let the rental cost of 1 video game be v.

One month, Tammy rented 2 movies and 6 video games for a total of $42. This means that:

2m + 6v = 42 ________ (1)

The next month she rented 5 movies and 3 video games for a total of $30. This means that:

5m + 3v = 30 _________(2)

We now have two simultaneous equations:

2m + 6v = 42 ________ (1)

5m + 3v = 30 _________(2)

Multiply (2) by 2, and we have:

2m + 6v = 42 __________ (1)

10m + 6v = 60 _________ (3)

Subtract (1) from (3):

 10m + 6v = 60

-<u> 2m + 6v = 42</u>

 <u>  8m     =     18</u>

=> m = 18 / 8

m = $2.25

Put the value of m back in (1):

2(2.25) + 6v = 42

4.5 + 6v = 42

=> 6v = 42 - 4.5 = 37.5

v = 37.5 / 6

v = $6.25

Therefore, the rental cost of one movie is $2.25 and the rental cost of one video game is $6.25

4-It has been a bad day for the market, with 70% of securities losing value. You are evaluating a portfolio of 20 securities and
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

b) 0.0007

c) 0.4163

d) 0.2375

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following:

We treat securities lose value as a success.

P(Security lose value) = 70% = 0.7

Then the securities lose value follows a binomial distribution, where

P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}

where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.

Now, we are given n = 20.

a) Assumptions

  • There are 20 independent trials.
  • Each trial have two possible outcome: security loose value or security does not lose value.
  • The probability for success of each trial is same, p = 0.7

b) P(all 20 securities lose value)

We have to evaluate:

P(x = 20)\\= \binom{20}{0}(0.7)^0(1-0.7)^{20}\\= 0.0007

0.0007 is the probability that all 20 securities lose value.

c) P(at least 15 of them lose value.)

P(x \geq 15)\\= P(x=15) + P(x = 16) + P(x=17) + P(x=18) +P(x = 19) +P(x = 20)\\ \binom{20}{15}(0.7)^{15}(1-0.7)^{5} +...+ \binom{20}{20}(0.7)^{20}(1-0.7)^{0} \\=0.4163

d) P(less than 5 of them gain value.)

P(gain value) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

P(x < 5)\\= P(x=0) + P(x = 1) + P(x=2) + P(x=3) +P(x = 4)\\ \binom{20}{0}(0.3)^{0}(1-0.3)^{20} +...+ \binom{20}{4}(0.3)^{4}(1-0.3)^{16} \\=0.2375

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

225 minutes or 3 hours and 45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

45 (minutes per day) times 5 (days in a school week) = 225 minutes

or add 45 (minutes per day)+ 45+45+45+45 = 225

To get the hours:

Divide 225 by 60 (minutes per hour) and it is 3 - remainder 45.
