What is the probability, that a leap year selected at random will contain 53 Sundays? 

Sol.: A leap year has 366 days, therefore 52 weeks i.e. 52 Sunday and 2 days.

The remaining 2 days may be any of the following : 

(i) Sunday and Monday 

(ii) Monday and Tuesday 

(iii) Tuesday and Wednesday 

(iv) Wednesday and Thursday 

(v) Thursday and Friday 

(vi) Friday and Saturday 

(vii) Saturday and Sunday 

For having 53 Sundays in a year, one of the remaining 2 days must be a Sunday. 

n(S) = 7 

n(E) = 2 

<span>P(E) = n(E) / n(S) = 2 / 7

the tickets for a benefit concert were $6 for friday night and $8 for Saturday night. the total attendence for the two nights wa
aksik [14]

Answer:

432 people on Friday and 658 on Saturday

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets use variables for each day

x=Friday and y=Saturday

now write two equations since you were given two different information (money and people)

$6 on Friday and $8 on Saturday with a total amount of $7856

the equation will be 6x+8y=7856

now the second equation will be for people

x amount of people on Friday and y amount of people on saturday for a total of 1090; the equation will be

x+y=1090

put them together

6x+8y=7856

x+y=1090

now you can cancel a variable but manipulating one of the equations. We'll use x, to cancel x you need make it zero so multiply the bottom by -6

6x+8y=7856

-6(x+y=1090)

6x+8y=7856                   now subtract downwards, with the x cancelling

-6x-6y=-6540

2y=1316                          simplify

(2y/2)=(1316/2)              

y=658

                                       insert y into x+y=1090

x+(658)=1090

    -658   -658

x=432

169 = 64 + x^2

x^2 = 105

x is approximately 10.2, so B

A car is advertised as $288/month for 72 months. What is the cost of the car?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

$20,736

Step-by-step explanation:

When these kind of advertisements are displayed,, it means the EMI cost per month shall be $288.

Since it provides the time period, that is 72 months,

Total cost of car in this case shall be $288 \times 72 months = $20,736

Also, these include an interest factor, but overall it is = $20,736 only,

If one down payment for full price of the car is made the cost shall reduce by the interest amount, but since no interest rate is provided it shall be ignored.
