Answer:

The cost of M apples is M($0.20).

Explanation:

We don't know how many apples exactly, we only know that it is the quantity of M. Since each apple is $0.20, we can multiply that by M to get the amount of "$0.20's" for M apples.

Name two solutions for each inequality.

ahrayia [7]

So,

#1: $n \geq 3 \frac{11}{16} + 4 \frac{1}{2}$

Convert to like improper fractions.
$n \geq \frac{59}{16} + \frac{72}{16}$

Add.
$n \geq \frac{131}{16}\ or\ 8 \frac{3}{16}$

So, one solution could be $8 \frac{3}{16}$ .

Another solution could by 9. There is also 10, 11, 12, etc., and all numbers in between.

#2: $k \ \textless \ 6 \frac{2}{5} * 15$

Convert into improper fraction form.
$k \ \textless \ \frac{32}{5} * 15$

Multiply.
$\frac{(2^5)(3)(5)}{5}$

Cross-cancel, and we have our final result.
$(2^5)(3) = 96$
k < 96

96 is not a solution.

95 is a solution.

So is 94, 93, 92, etc, and all numbers in between.

Find the probability of exactly three successes in six trials of a binomial experiment in which the the probability of is 50%.

Lyrx [107]

Start by doing the binomial expansion of (x+y)^6 where x represents success. This is

(x^6y^0) + 6(x^5y^1) +15(x^4y^2) +20(x^3y^3) +15(x^2y^4) +6(x^1y^5) +(x^0y^6)

We are interested in the x^3y^3 term which represents exactly 3 sucesses. Since the probalbility of sucess and failure are both .5 we should be able to figure this out just using the coefficients of the terms which is

20/64 = .3125 which is 31.25%

Something on sale for $725. The original price was $1299. To the nearest tenth of a percent, what was the rate of discount?

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

44.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of discount = (difference in prices / original price) x 100

Difference in price = $1299 - $725 = $574

Original price = $1299

($574 / $1299) x 100 = 44.187837%

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero

the hundredth figure is 8, which is greater than 5. 1 would be added to the tenth figure.

So it becomes 44.2%
