The University of Metropolis requires its students to pass an examination in college-level mathematics before they can graduate.

The students are given three chances to pass the exam; 61% pass it on their first attempt, 63% of those that take it a second time pass it then, and 48% of those that take it a third time pass it then. (Assume that all students who do not pass the first or second time elect to take the test again.) What percent of the students take the test three times? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

John is at a local bait shop; he wants to buy bait for his fishing trip. At the store, they are selling live bait for $12 a poun
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

x\geq3

12x+7y\leq63

y\geq0

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let x be the amount of live bait and y be the amount of natural bait, Then we can come up with the following inequalities;

We are told that John would like to get at least 3 pounds of live bait. At least 3 means 3 or more. Since x represents the amount of live bait, we have;

x\geq3

Moreover,we are informed that;

The store sells live bait for $12 a pound and natural bait for $7 a pound. x pounds of live bait would cost 12x while y pounds of natural bait would cost 7y. The total cost would thus be;

12x + 7y

but John only has a budget of $63. This implies that he can spend $63 at most, thus;

12x+7y\leq63

Finally we can have our last inequality as;

y\geq0

I need to know what 8(ii) because I don’t know the method
Irina18 [472]
Notice y° and y° and 50°, are all three angles in a flat-line, namely "linear angles", and since a flat-line is always 180°.

\bf y+y+50=180\implies 2y=180-50\implies 2y=130
\\\\\\
y=\cfrac{130}{2}\implies  y=65
