A sno-cone machine priced at $139 is on sale for 20% off. The sales tax rate is 6.75%. What is the price of the sno-cone machine
valkas [14]

Answer:

About $118.70

Step-by-step explanation:

139 x .2 = 27.8

139 - 27.8 = 111.2

111.2 x .0675 = 7.5

111.2 + 7.5 = 118.7

118.7 = $118.70

Quadrilateral ABCD is similiar to quadrilateral EFGH. The lengths of the three longest sides in quadrilateral ABCD are 24 feet,
MatroZZZ [7]

The two quadrilaterals are given similar .

In any similar figure sides are in proportion.The second largest side of quadrilateral ABCD is 16 ft .Let the second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH be x ft. These sides will be in proportion to each other .

The second shortest side of quadrilateral EFGH that is GF will be proportional to the third longest side of quadrilateral ABCD that is BC

We can form a proportion with the proportional sides:

\frac{16}{x} =\frac{12}{18}

To solve for x we cross multiply

12x=(16)(18)

12x=288

Dividing both sides by 12 we get

x=24.

The second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH is 24 ft.

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

A.The probability that exactly six of Nate's dates are women who prefer surgeons is 0.183.

B. The probability that at least 10 of Nate's dates are women who prefer surgeons is 0.0713.

C. The expected value of X is 6.75, and the standard deviation of X is 2.17.

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropiate distribution to us in this model is the binomial distribution, as there is a sample size of n=25 "trials" with probability p=0.25 of success.

With these parameters, the probability that exactly k dates are women who prefer surgeons can be calculated as:

P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}\\\\\\P(x=k) = \dbinom{25}{k} 0.25^{k} 0.75^{25-k}\\\\\\

A. P(x=6)

P(x=6) = \dbinom{25}{6} p^{6}(1-p)^{19}=177100*0.00024*0.00423=0.183\\\\\\

B. P(x≥10)

P(x\geq10)=1-P(x

P(x=0) = \dbinom{25}{0} p^{0}(1-p)^{25}=1*1*0.0008=0.0008\\\\\\P(x=1) = \dbinom{25}{1} p^{1}(1-p)^{24}=25*0.25*0.001=0.0063\\\\\\P(x=2) = \dbinom{25}{2} p^{2}(1-p)^{23}=300*0.0625*0.0013=0.0251\\\\\\P(x=3) = \dbinom{25}{3} p^{3}(1-p)^{22}=2300*0.0156*0.0018=0.0641\\\\\\P(x=4) = \dbinom{25}{4} p^{4}(1-p)^{21}=12650*0.0039*0.0024=0.1175\\\\\\P(x=5) = \dbinom{25}{5} p^{5}(1-p)^{20}=53130*0.001*0.0032=0.1645\\\\\\P(x=6) = \dbinom{25}{6} p^{6}(1-p)^{19}=177100*0.0002*0.0042=0.1828\\\\\\

P(x=7) = \dbinom{25}{7} p^{7}(1-p)^{18}=480700*0.000061*0.005638=0.1654\\\\\\P(x=8) = \dbinom{25}{8} p^{8}(1-p)^{17}=1081575*0.000015*0.007517=0.1241\\\\\\P(x=9) = \dbinom{25}{9} p^{9}(1-p)^{16}=2042975*0.000004*0.010023=0.0781\\\\\\

P(x\geq10)=1-(0.0008+0.0063+0.0251+0.0641+0.1175+0.1645+0.1828+0.1654+0.1241+0.0781)\\\\P(x\geq10)=1-0.9287=0.0713

C. The expected value (mean) and standard deviation of this binomial distribution can be calculated as:

E(x)=\mu=n\cdot p=25\cdot 0.25=6.25\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{25\cdot 0.25\cdot 0.75}=\sqrt{4.69}\approx2.17
