Linda should use ...
  15 gallons of 80% juice
  5 gallons of 60% juice

_____
Let g represent the number of gallons of 80% juice needed. Then (20-g) is the number of gallons of 60% juice Linda will use. The amount of juice in the mixture can be written as
  0.80g +0.60(20 -g) = 0.75×20
  0.20g = 20(0.75 -0.60) = 20×0.15
  g = 20×0.15/0.20 = 15
The amount of 80% juice needed is 15 gallons, so 5 gallons of 60% juice are needed.

Answer:

7 fiction and 23 non- fiction

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of non-fiction read was 5 less than 4 times the number of fiction books.

Assume fiction books are x.

An equation representing this would be:

x + (4x - 5) = 30

5x - 5 = 30

5x = 30 + 5

x = 35 / 5

x = 7 fiction books

Non-fiction books:

= 4x - 5

= 4 * 7 - 5

= 23 non - fiction books

<span>The sales tax in New Jersey is 6%. For a $16 book, what will the total cost be, including sales tax?
Solutions:
=> 16 dollars is the amount of book
=> 6% is the sales tax which is equals to (6% / 100% = 0.06)
Let’s follow the formula to get the total amount to be paid.
=> 16 dollars * .06 = .96 dollars
Now, let’s add this together:

Try to estimate the probability you'd turn on the radio and hear a song you were thinking about. In other words, estimate the pr
Black_prince [1.1K]

Probabilities are used to determine the likelihood of events

The value of the probability P(thinking of a song)P(turn on the radio and hear the song) is 0.056

<h3>How to estimate the probability</h3>

To calculate the probability, we make use of the following representations:

  • Event A represents the likelihood of thinking of a song
  • Event B represents the likelihood of turning on the radio and hearing the song

So, we have:

P(thinking of a song)P(turn on the radio and hear the song) = P(A) * P(B)

Assume that:

P(A) = 0.12 and P(B) = 0.47

So, we have:

P(thinking of a song)P(turn on the radio and hear the song) = 0.12* 0.47

Evaluate the product

P(thinking of a song)P(turn on the radio and hear the song) = 0.0564

Approximate

P(thinking of a song)P(turn on the radio and hear the song) = 0.056

Hence, the value of the probability P(thinking of a song)P(turn on the radio and hear the song) is 0.056
