Toby can but T-shirts in packs of 5 for 13.00 or in packs of 2 for 7.22. How much money does he save by buying 30 T-shirts at th
Helen [10]

Toby saves 30.30 money by buying 30 T-shirts at better price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of pack of 5 T-shirts = 13.00 money.

Cost of pack of 2 T-shirts = 7.22 money.

Toby wants to buy total T-shirts = 30 T-shirts.

<u>Case 1 </u>:

For 30 T-shirts, If Toby buys in packs of 5 T-shirts then the number of packs he should buy = 30/5 = 6 packs.

The cost for six packs of 5 T-shirts =  6*13.00 = 78.00 money.

<u>Case 2 </u>:

For 30 T-shirts, If Toby buys in packs of 2 T-shirts then the number of packs he should buy = 30/2 = 15 packs.

The cost for 15 packs of 2 T-shirts =  15*7.22 = 108.30 money.

The money saved = 108.30 -78.00 = 30.30 money.

Therefore, The better price to buy 30 T-shirts is 78.00 money.

Luke earned $36,000 during the first year of his job at Putt-Putt Kingdom. After each year he received a 10% raise. Find his tot
Lady_Fox [76]
In order to solve this problem, you need to use a geometric series:
S_{n} =  \frac{ a_{1}(1 - r^{n}) }{1 - r}
where:
a₁ = first term of the series = 36000
r = common rate = 10% raise, therefore 1.10
n = number of terms = 5

Therefore,
 <span>S_{n} =  \frac{ 36000(1 - 1.10^{5}) }{1 - 1.10}
= 219783.60 $

Luke's total earnings in five years are <span>219783.60 $.</span>

Elimination process <br><br> 7a-3b = 26<br> a + 2b =11
VMariaS [17]

Answer:(a=5,b=3)

7a-3b = 26--------(1)

a + 2b =11---------(2)

on mutlplying by7 in eq 2

= 7a+14b=77-------(3)

from eq(1) and (3) (on substracting)

7a+14b=77

7a-3b=26

________

=-17b=51

b=51/17

b=3

on putting value of b in eq 1

7a-3b = 26

=7a-9=26

7a=35

a=5

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a line through the origin that divides the region bounded by the parabola y=2x-4x^2 and the x-axis into two regions wit
shtirl [24]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

y = 7x - 4x² 

<span>7x - 4x² = 0 </span>

<span>x(7 - 4x) = 0 </span>

<span>x = 0, 7/4 </span>

<span>Find the area of the bounded region... </span>

<span>A = ∫ 7x - 4x² dx |(0 to 7/4) </span>

<span>A = 7/2 x² - 4/3 x³ |(0 to 7/4) </span>

<span>A = 7/2(7/4)² - 4/3(7/4)³ - 0 = 3.573 </span>

<span>Half of this area is 1.786, now set up an integral that is equal to this area but bounded by the parabola and the line going through the origin... </span>

<span>y = mx + c </span>

<span>c = 0 since it goes through the origin </span>

<span>The point where the line intersects the parabola we shall call (a, b) </span>

<span>y = mx ===> b = m(a) </span>

<span>Slope = m = b/a </span>

<span>Now we need to integrate from 0 to a to find the area bounded by the parabola and the line... </span>

<span>1.786 = ∫ 7x - 4x² - (b/a)x dx |(0 to a) </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)x² - (4/3)x³ - (b/2a)x² |(0 to a) </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - (b/2a)a² - 0 </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - b(a/2) </span>

<span>Remember that (a, b) is also a point on the parabola so y = 7x - 4x² ==> b = 7a - 4a² </span>
<span>Substitute... </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - (7a - 4a²)(a/2) </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - (7/2)a² + 2a³ </span>

<span>(2/3)a³ = 1.786 </span>

<span>a = ∛[(3/2)(1.786)] </span>

<span>a = 1.39 </span>

<span>b = 7(1.39) - 4(1.39)² = 2.00 </span>

<span>Slope = m = b/a = 2.00 / 1.39 = 1.44</span>

A grocery bag can be classified as either paper or plastic. Suppose that 85​% of grocery bags are classified as plastic. ​(a) Tw
hjlf

Answer:

a) 0.7225

b) 0.5220

c) 0.478

It is not unusual.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability grocery bags are plastic = 85% = 0.85

a) If two grocery bags are chosen at random, the probability that both grocery bags are plastic would be:

^2C_2 (0.85)^2 (1-0.85)^0

= (0.85)^2 = 0.7225

b) If four bags are chosen at random, the probability that all are plastic:

^4C_4 (0.85)^4 (1-0.85)^0

= (0.85)^4 = 0.5220

Probability all four bags chosen randomly are plastic bags is 0.5220

c) The probability that at least one of four randomly selected grocery bags is paper:

Let's first check for the probability of getting a paper bag.

P(paper bag) = 1 - 0.85 = 0.15

Probability of getting a paper bag is 0.15

Probability that at least one of four randomly selected grocery bags is paper would be:

1 - ^4C_0(0.15)^0 (0. 85)^4

= 1 - (1)(0.85)^4

= 1 - 0.5220

= 0.478

Since the probability that at least one bag is paper, 0.478 is greater than 0.05, it is not unusual.
