Answer:

Answer:the company bought 12 computers and 4 printers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of computers that the company bought.

Let y represent the number of printers that the company bought.

The company buys a total of 16 machines. It means that

x + y = 16

Each computer costs $550 and each printer costs $390. If the company spends $8160 for all the computers and printers that was bought, it means that

550x + 390y = 8160 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 16 - y into equation 1, it becomes

550(16 - y) + 390y = 8160

8800 - 550y + 390y = 8160

- 550y + 390y = 8160 - 8800

- 160y = - 640

y = - 640/ - 160

y = 4

Substituting y = 4 into x = 16 - y, it becomes

x = 16 - 4

x = 12

Answer:

The company bought 12 computers and 4 printers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of computers that the company bought.

Let y represent the number of printers that the company bought.

The company buys a total of 16 machines. It means that

x + y = 16

Each computer costs $550 and each printer costs $390. If the company spends $8160 for all the computers and printers that was bought, it means that

550x + 390y = 8160 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 16 - y into equation 1, it becomes

550(16 - y) + 390y = 8160

8800 - 550y + 390y = 8160

- 550y + 390y = 8160 - 8800

- 160y = - 640

y = - 640/ - 160

y = 4

Substituting y = 4 into x = 16 - y, it becomes

x = 16 - 4

x = 12

Evaluate C_n.xP^xQn-x For the given n=7, x=2, p=1/2

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The value of given expression is $\frac{21}{128}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: n=7, x=2, p=1/2

$q=1-p=1-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}$

The given expression is

$C(n,x)p^xq^{n-x}$

It can be written as

$^nC_xp^xq^{n-x}$

Substitute n=7, x=2, p=1/2 and q=1/2 in the above formula.

$^7C_2(\frac{1}{2})^2(\frac{1}{2})^{7-2}$

$\frac{7!}{2!(7-2)!}(\frac{1}{2})^2(\frac{1}{2})^{5}$

$\frac{7!}{2!5!}(\frac{1}{2})^{2+5}$

$\frac{7\times 6\times 5!}{2\times 5!}(\frac{1}{2})^{2+5}$

$21(\frac{1}{2})^{7}$

$\frac{21}{128}$

Therefore the value of given expression is $\frac{21}{128}$ .
