12/h. Indigo Research was billed $876.00 last month for 40 hours of access time. Using a system of equations, find the number of hours charged for usage during peak times.

P + o = 40                    (where p = peak and o= off-peak)
30p + 12o = 876
This can be done using elimination or substitution.
I will do elimination.

Multiply the first equation by -12. This will 'eliminate' the variable o.
-12p -12o = - 480
30p + 12o = 876

Now add the two equations together.
18p = 396
Divide both sides by 18
p = 22
40 - 22 = 18
Peak hrs. = 22
Off-Peak = 18
CHECK 22(30) + 18(12) = $876

How are the factors of 36 related to the factors of 72
Zolol [24]
They are related because some of the factors of 36 overlap with 72
EX: 36 - 1,2,3,4,6,12,18
EX: 72 - 1,2,3,4,6,12,18,31

So that means 1,2,3,4,6,12,18 overlap

If ten coins are spun together, the probability of four or more heads is 0.83. the probability of eight or more is 0.05. find th
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

a. 0.17

b. 0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to answering both questions is that we should understand that the probability of an event happening = 1 - the probability of the event not happening

Firstly, we want to calculate the probability of less than four

Probability of less than four = 1 - probability of four or more heads

that is 1 - 0.83 = 0.17

Probability of less than 8 = 1 - probability of 8 or more = 1-0.05 = 0.95
