HELP ASAPJennifer and Chris completed some chores and split the earnings in the ratio 3:2. Jennifer earned $48.

elixir [45]

Let the total earnings be = x

Jennifer and Chris split the earnings in the ratio 3:2

Jennifer earned = $48

$\frac{3x}{5}=48$

$3x=240$

x=80

Hence total earnings are $80

(a) Chris earning is = $\frac{2x}{5}=\frac{2*80}{5}=32$

Hence, Chris earns $32

(b) Jennifer spends 30% of her earnings on a book.

So, price of the book = $\frac{30}{100}\times48$

Price of book = $14.40

(c) Jennifer also buys a magazine for = $5.40

So, total money Jennifer spent on book and magazine = 14.40+5.40=19.80

Money left with Jennifer = 48-19.80= $28.20

In fractions = $\frac{28.20}{48}$

or multiplying the numerator and denominator by 10, we get

$\frac{282}{480}$ = $\frac{47}{80}$

(d) Let the original price of the shirt = x

reduction percentage on x= 40%

Price paid after reduction = 16.80

$\frac{40x}{100}=16.80$

$40x=1680$

$x=42$

Hence, the original price of the shirt was $42.

What is the value of x?<br> 4x − 6 = 18

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

You need to get rid of -6 by adding 6, you also need to add 6 to 18.

4x = 24

Now you need to get rid of the 4 attached to the variable, you do this by dividing 4 since it is multiplying, also dividing 4 and 24

x = 6

So the value of x is 6

Hope this helps! :)

There are 4 people at a party. Consider the random variable X=’number of people having the same birthday ’ (match only month, N=

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

S = {0,2,3,4}

P(X=0) = 0.573 , P(X=2) = 0.401 , P(x=3) = 0.025, P(X=4) = 0.001

Mean = 0.879

Standard Deviation = 1.033

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of people having same birth month be = x

The number of ways of distributing the birthdays of the 4 men = (12*12*12*12)

The number of ways of distributing their birthdays = 12⁴

The sample space, S = { 0,2,3,4} (since 1 person cannot share birthday with himself)

P(X = 0) = $\frac{12P4}{12^{4} }$

P(X=0) = 0.573

P(X=2) = P(2 months are common) P(1 month is common, 1 month is not common)

P(X=2) = $\frac{3C2 * 12P2}{12^{4} } + \frac{4C2 * 12P3}{12^{4} }$

P(X=2) = 0.401

P(X=3) = $\frac{4C3 * 12P2}{12^{4} }$

P(x=3) = 0.025

P(X=4) = $\frac{12}{12^{4} }$

P(X=4) = 0.001

Mean, $\mu = \sum xP(x)$

$\mu = (0*0.573) + (2*0.401) + (3*0.025) + (4*0.001)\\\mu = 0.879$

Standard deviation, $SD = \sqrt{\sum x^{2} P(x) - \mu^{2}} \\SD =\sqrt{ [ (0^{2} * 0.573) + (2^{2} * 0.401) + (3^{2} * 0.025) + (4^{2} * 0.001)] - 0.879^{2}}$

SD = 1.033
