x = 26 m is the width of the pool, length: 29+4 = 33 m.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have A rectangular pool is surrounded by a walk 3 meters wide. The pool is 4 meters longer than its width. If the total area of the pool walk is 372 square meters more than the area of the pool.

Let the width of the pool = x

Then the length will = (x+4) ,over all  dimensions will be (x+6) by (x+6+4) or (x+10)

Total area - pool area = 372

(x+10)*(x+6) - x(x+4) = 372\\x^{2}+16x+60-x^{2}-4x = 372\\12x+60 = 372\\12x = 372-60\\12x = 312\\x = 26

∴ x = 26 ft is the width of the pool, length: 29+4 = 33 ft

You want to rent a television. Company A charges $40 per week plus a one-time fee of $25. Company B charges $35 per week plus a
Over [174]

Answer:

4 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A charges $40 per week and a one time fee of $25

Company B charges $35 per week and a one time fee of $45

Therefore the number of weeks required for both companies to arrive at the same cost can be calculated as follows

Company A = 45 + 35×4

= 45 + 140

= 185

Company B = 25 + 40×4

= 25 + 160

= 185

Hence it will cost both companies 4 weeks

Which is Bigger?
igomit [66]
A)
43\%=\frac{43}{100} \\ \\&#10;\frac{24}{60}=\frac{4}{10}=\frac{40}{100} \\ \\&#10;43>40 \Rightarrow \frac{43}{100} > \frac{40}{100} \Rightarrow 43\% > \frac{24}{60}

43% is bigger.

b)
\frac{18}{30}=\frac{6}{10}=\frac{60}{100} \\ \\&#10;0.51=\frac{51}{100} \\ \\&#10;60>51 \Rightarrow \frac{60}{100} > \frac{51}{100} \Rightarrow \frac{18}{30} >0.51

18/30 is bigger.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $15,000 is over $5000 the commission is 7.5%

Next you turn the percent into a decimal:

0.075

Now multiply $15,000 by 0.075

Answer = $1125

Four cards are dealt from a standard fifty-two-card poker deck. What is the probability that all four are aces given that at lea
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The probability is 0.0052

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the event that the four cards are aces, B the event that at least three are aces. So, the probability P(A/B) that all four are aces given that at least three are aces is calculated as:

P(A/B) =  P(A∩B)/P(B)

The probability P(B) that at least three are aces is the sum of the following probabilities:

  • The four card are aces: This is one hand from the 270,725 differents sets of four cards, so the probability is 1/270,725
  • There are exactly 3 aces: we need to calculated how many hands have exactly 3 aces, so we are going to calculate de number of combinations or ways in which we can select k elements from a group of n elements. This can be calculated as:

nCk=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}

So, the number of ways to select exactly 3 aces is:

4C3*48C1=\frac{4!}{3!(4-3)!}*\frac{48!}{1!(48-1)!}=192

Because we are going to select 3 aces from the 4 in the poker deck and we are going to select 1 card from the 48 that aren't aces. So the probability in this case is 192/270,725

Then, the probability P(B) that at least three are aces is:

P(B)=\frac{1}{270,725} +\frac{192}{270,725} =\frac{193}{270,725}

On the other hand the probability P(A∩B) that the four cards are aces and at least three are aces is equal to the probability that the four card are aces, so:

P(A∩B) = 1/270,725

Finally, the probability P(A/B) that all four are aces given that at least three are aces is:

P=\frac{1/270,725}{193/270,725} =\frac{1}{193}=0.0052
