Answer:

16.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

If at least 7 are female, that means either 7 or 8 are female.

Use binomial probability:

P = nCr pʳ qⁿ⁻ʳ

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1−p).

Here, n = 8, p = 0.65, and r = 7 or 8.

P = ₈C₇ (0.65)⁷ (0.35)⁸⁻⁷ + ₈C₈ (0.65)⁸ (0.35)⁸⁻⁸

P = (8) (0.65)⁷ (0.35)¹ + (1) (0.65)⁸ (0.35)⁰

P = 8 (0.65)⁷ (0.35) + (0.65)⁸

P = 0.169

D)) The ratio of the monthly income and expenditure of Sunayana is 5 : 3. If she
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Sunayana's income is ₹25000 and expenditures are ₹15000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let i denote the monthly income and e denote the expenditures.

We know that the ratio of the monthly income to expenditure is 5:3. So, we can write the following proportion:  

\frac{i}{e}=\frac{5}{3}

Let's multiply both sides by e. This yields:

i=\frac{5}{3}e

We know that when the income is <em>increased</em> by 5000 and the expenditures are <em>decreased </em>by 3000, the new ratio is 5:2. So, we can write the following proportion:

\frac{i+5000}{e-3000}=\frac{5}{2}

Let's multiply both sides by (e-3000):

i+5000=\frac{5}{2}(e-3000)

Since we know that i=\frac{5}{3}e, substitute:

\frac{5}{3}e+5000=\frac{5}{2}(e-3000)

So, let's solve for the expenditures. Distribute the right:

\frac{5}{3}e+5000=\frac{5}{2}e-7500

Subtract \frac{5}{2}e from both sides:

-\frac{5}{6}e+5000=-7500

Subtract 5000 from both sides:

-\frac{5}{6}e=-12500

Multiply both sides by -6/5. So, the expenditures are:

e=\text{Rs }15000

We can use the original ratio to find Sunayana's income:

i=\frac{5}{3}e

Substitute 15000 for e. Evaluate:

i=\frac{5}{3}(15000)=\text{Rs }25000

So, Sunayana's income is ₹25000 and expenditures are ₹15000.

And we're done!

Edit: Wrong currency, sorry about that!

A firm expects to sell 24,800 units of its product at $10.80 per unit and to incur variable costs per unit of $5.80. Total fixed
seropon [69]

Answer:

a. $56,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pretax income is the income earned after the expenses incurred have been deducted from the total sales. It is the income on which the taxation rate may be applied to.

The total expense is the sum of the fixed and variable expenses. The total sales is the product of the units selling price and the number of units sold while the total variable cost is the product of the variable cost per unit and the total units.

Hence pretax income,

= $10.80(24,800) - $5.80(24,800) - $68,000

= $56,000
