Ethan repairs household appliances like dishwashers and refrigerators. For each visit, he charges $25 plus $20 per hour of work.

A linear equation that expresses the total amount of money Ethan earns per visit is y = 25 + 20x. What is the independent variable, and what is the dependent variable?

Answer:the independent variable is x, the number of hours of work.

The dependent variable is y, the total charge for x hours of work.

Step-by-step explanation:

A change in the value of the independent variable causes a corresponding change in the value of in dependent variable. Thus, the dependent variable is is output while the independent variable is the input

For each visit, he charges $25 plus $20 per hour of work. The linear expression that represents the total amount of money that Ethan earns per visit is y = 25 + 20x.

Since the total amount charged, y depends on the number of hours of work, x, it means that the dependent variable is y and the independent variable is x

Ari said there are three possible outcomes when you spin this spinner twice: two reds, a yellow and a red, or two yellows.
EastWind [94]

Answer:

From inspection of the diagram, we can see that the spinner is divided into <u>4 equal parts</u>, where 3 parts are red and 1 part is yellow.

\sf Probability\:of\:an\:event\:occurring = \dfrac{Number\:of\:ways\:it\:can\:occur}{Total\:number\:of\:possible\:outcomes}

Therefore,

\implies \textsf{Probability of getting a red} = \sf \dfrac{3}{4}

\implies \textsf{Probability of getting a yellow} = \sf \dfrac{1}{4}

<u>Multiplication Rule for Independent Events</u>

For independent events A and B:

  • \sf P(A\:and\:B)=P(A) \times P(B)

Therefore,

\begin{aligned}\implies \sf P(yellow\:and\:yellow) & = \sf P(yellow) \times P(yellow)\\\\ & = \sf \dfrac{1}{4} \times \dfrac{1}{4}\\\\ & = \sf \dfrac{1}{16}\end{aligned}

<h3><u>Conclusion</u></h3>

Ari is incorrect.  The spinner is divided into 4 parts, where only one part is yellow.  Therefore, the probability of spinning a yellow is 1/4.  As the events are independent, the Multiplication Rule should be used to calculate the probability of spinning 2 yellows.  So the probability of spinning 2 yellows is 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16.

Once upon a time, there was a former whose family raised pigs and chickens. One morning, the farmer's wife looked into the barny
Fed [463]

Using a system of equations, it is found that:

  • There are 8 chickens in the yard.
  • There are 16 pigs in the yard.

-----------------------------------------

This question is solved using a system of equations. I am going to say that:

  • x is the number of chickens.
  • y is the number of pigs.

-----------------------------------------

  • A chicken has 1 head, as do a pig.
  • There are 24 heads.

Thus:

x + y = 24 \rightarrow y = 24 - x

-----------------------------------------

  • A chicken has 2 feet.
  • A pig has 4 feet.
  • In total, there are 80 feet.

Thus:

2x + 4y = 80

-----------------------------------------

Number of chicken:

Since y = 24 - x

2x + 4y = 80

2x + 4(24 - x) = 80

2x + 96 - 4x = 80

2x = 16

x = \frac{16}{2}

x = 8

There are 8 chickens in the yard.

-----------------------------------------

Number of pigs:

y = 24 - x = 24 - 8 = 16

There are 16 pigs in the yard.

An item is regularly priced at $85 . it is on sale for 60% off the regular price. how much (in dollars) is discounted from the r
Alex_Xolod [135]
100% - 60% = 40%
 40% = 85 
 1% = 85 / 40 
100% = 85/ 40 × 100
 100% = $ 212.5.
