Two companies, A and B, drill wells in a rural area. Company A charges a flat fee of 3681 dollars to drill a well regardless of

its depth. Company B charges 1168 dollars plus 10 dollars per foot to drill a well. The depths of wells drilled in this area have a normal distribution with a mean of 260 feet and a standard deviation of 40 feet. Find the probability that Company B would charge more than Company A to drill a well.

Answer:

Mean costing =  $3,768

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean A(x) = 260

Rate = $10 per feet

Fixed charge = $1,168

Computation:

Assume;

depth = x ft

So,

Cost of company B = 10x + 1,168

So,

Mean costing = 10A(x) + 1,168

Mean costing =  10(260) + 1,168

Mean costing =  2,600 + 1,168

Mean costing =  $3,768

The admision fee at a basket ball game is 350$ for children and 750$ for adults. On a certain night,1500 people enter the basket
Hoochie [10]

<u>Note: The only way to solve this problem is by adjusting the fees to $3.50 and $7.50.</u>

Answer:

<em>1300 children attended the basketball game</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations

Let's call:

x = number of children attending the basketball game

y = number of adults attending the basketball game

On a certain night, 1500 people enter the game, thus:

x + y = 1500           [1]

Since each admission fee for children cost $3.50 and $7.50 for adults and it was collected $6050, thus:

3.50x + 7.50y = 6050            [2]

From [1]:

y = 1500 - x

Substituting in [2]:

3.50x + 7.50(1500 - x) = 6050

Operating:

3.50x +  11250 - 7.50 = 6050

-4x = 6050 - 11250

Solving:

x = 1300

1300 children attended the basketball game

Damm [24]

Answer:

<h2>186 : 1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

1cm = 10mm

Therefore 8cm = 8 · 10mm = 80mm

The scale of the model

\dfrac{model}{real}\to\dfrac{80}{0.43}=\dfrac{80\cdot100}{0.43\cdot100}=\dfrac{8000}{43}\approx186
