Answer:
Shonda has ( x )dollars in her piggy bank.
Rizzo has ( x-1.50 )
if Shonda has $9 more than x; (x+9),would be equal to
3 times the dollars Rizzo has, or, 3(x-1.50). The two quantities are equal, we can solve for x.
x+9 = 3(x-1.50)
Dustribute the 3
x+9 = 3x - 4.50
Isolate the variable on the left and constants on the right of the equation by subtracting 3x and 9 from both sides.
x+9 = 3x - 4.50
-3x-9 = -3x - 9
-2x = - 13.50
Divide both sides by - 2
Shonda has; x = 6.75
Rizzo has; (6.75 - 1.50) = 5.25
6.75 + 9 = 3(6.75 - 1.50)
15.75 = 3(5.25) or 15.75.
Passes the check.
Shonda has $6.75 in her piggy bank and Rizzo has $5.25.
Answer:
1. 0.1445
2. 0.3426
3. 0.6574
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L be the event that there is liquid in the bag
Let + the be event of a positive test.
we are given:
P(+ | L) = 0.99
P(+ | L') = 0.10
P(L) = 0.05
1. Find P(+), use the Law of Total Probability to do this:
P(+) = P(+|L)P(L) + P(+ | L')P(L')
= 0.99 * 0.05 + 0.1 * (1- 0.05)
= 0.1445
2. Find P( L | + ) = P( L ∩ + ) / P(+) . . . definition of conditional probability
= P( + | L ) P(L) / P(+) . . . again using definition of conditional probability
= 0.99 * 0.05 / 0.1445
= 0.3426
3. P( L' | + ) = 1 - P( L | + ) = 1 - 0.3426 = 0.6574
12 x 10 =120
120= to 12 tens
Answer:
30 more students
Step-by-step explanation:
690 + 30 = 720
720 / 9 = 80
