A chef planning for a large banquet thinks that 2 out of every 5 dinner guests will order soup. 800 guests are going to be at th
Xelga [282]

Answer:

The Chef will prepare 320 soups for a large banquet

Step-by-step explanation:

chef thinks that 2 out of every 5 dinner guests will order soup

===> Order soup / total number of attender

= 2/5

Total guest = 800 ==> 4 people ordered soup is

2 /5 = x /800

cross multiplying

x = 2 x 800 / 5

= 320

The Chef will prepare 320 soups for a large banquet

What is the factored form of 9X^2-64
Maksim231197 [3]
This should be recognized as the difference of perfect squares which is of the form:

(a^2-b^2) and the difference of squares always factors to:

(a-b)(a+b)  in this case:

(3x-8)(3x+8)

Suppose f and g are continuous functions such that g(6) = 6 and lim x → 6 [3f(x) + f(x)g(x)] = 45. Find f(6).
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
Since g(6)=6, and both functions are continuous, we have:

\lim_{x \to 6} [3f(x)+f(x)g(x)] = 45\\\\\lim_{x \to 6} [3f(x)+6f(x)] = 45\\\\lim_{x \to 6} [9f(x)] = 45\\\\9\cdot lim_{x \to 6} f(x) = 45\\\\lim_{x \to 6} f(x)=5


if a function is continuous at a point c, then lim_{x \to c} f(x)=f(c), 

that is, in a    c ∈  a continuous interval, f(c) and the limit of f as x approaches c are the same.


Thus, since lim_{x \to 6} f(x)=5, f(6) = 5

This year the CDC reported that 30% of adults received their flu shot. Of those adults who received their flu shot,
Vlad [161]

Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a 0.1165 = 11.65% probability that a person with the flu is a person who received a flu shot.

Conditional Probability

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

  • P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
  • P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.
  • P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem:

  • Event A: Person has the flu.
  • Event B: Person got the flu shot.

The percentages associated with getting the flu are:

  • 20% of 30%(got the shot).
  • 65% of 70%(did not get the shot).

Hence:

P(A) = 0.2(0.3) + 0.65(0.7) = 0.515

The probability of both having the flu and getting the shot is:

P(A \cap B) = 0.2(0.3) = 0.06

Hence, the conditional probability is:

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.06}{0.515} = 0.1165

0.1165 = 11.65% probability that a person with the flu is a person who received a flu shot.

Find the least common multiple of these two expressions. 15x^7y^3u^8 and 6y^4u^5
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

30x^7y^4u^8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given two expressions 15x^7y^3u^8 and

6y^4u^5

Now we need to find out least common multiple of these two expressions.

First we need to find out what is common factor of both expressions. 15x^7y^3u^8 and

6y^4u^5

Least common multiple means find the expression which can be divided by both expressions.

15 and 6 both goes into 30

so 30 is part of LCM (least common multiple )

Now pickup the highest exponent of each variable.

So we get x^7y^4u^8

Hence required least common multiple is 30x^7y^4u^8
