$3a-4a+9=-12a+43-6a$
$-a+9=-12a+43-6a$
$-a+9=-18a+43$
$-a+9+18a=43$
$17a+9=43$
$17a=43-9$
$17a=34$
$a=34:17$
$a=2$

The answer is: a=2

Maggie sells homemade cookies. on a dozen cookies she spend 0.50 on flour, 0.70 on sugar, 0.40 on eggs,and 0.40 on packaging if

Art [367]

Using the profit concept, it is found that she makes a profit of $4 selling a dozen cookies for six dollars.

<h3>What is a profit?</h3>

The profit is given by the <u>subtraction of the revenue by the total costs</u>.

In this problem:

For the dozen cookies, she earned a revenue of 6 dollars.

In all, the total cost of the 12 cookies was of 0.5 + 0.7 + 0.4 + 0.4 = 2 dollars.

6 - 2 = 4, hence she makes a profit of $4.

You are drawing a map. Two cities on the map are 7 inches apart. You know the actual distance between them is 1,750 miles. What

swat32

Answer:

1 inch : 250 miles
1/15,840,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Map scale factors are usually written a couple of different ways. One of them is the number of miles represented by 1 inch. Here, that is ...

1750 mi/(7 in) = 250 mi/in

Written that way, the scale factor is 1 in : 250 miles.

The other way the scale factor can be written is as a unitless ratio. That ratio is ...

$\dfrac{1\,\text{in}}{250\,\text{mi}}\times\dfrac{1\,\text{mi}}{5280\,\text{ft}}\times\dfrac{1\,\text{ft}}{12\,\text{in}}=\dfrac{1}{250\cdot 5280\cdot 12}=\dfrac{1}{15,840,000}$

The map scale factor is 1 in : 250 miles, or 1/15,840,000.

Inquiries arrive at a record message device according to a Poisson process of rate 15 inquiries per minute. The probability that

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

0.0498 = 4.98%

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given time interval.

Inquiries arrive at a record message device according to a Poisson process of rate 15 inquiries per minute.

Each minute has 60 seconds.

So a rate of 1 inquire each 4 seconds.

The probability that it takes more than 12 seconds for the first inquiry to arrive is approximately

Mean of 1 inquire each 4 seconds, so for 12 seconds $\mu = \frac{12}{4} = 3$

This probability is P(X = 0).

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0498$
