Answer: Light bulbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Paint Brushes: 29.82 ÷ 14 = $2.13 per brush.

Drywall Screws : 31.84 ÷ 16 = $1.99 per anchor screw.

Light Bulbs: 27.15 ÷ 12 = $2.26 per light bulb.

Sandpaper: 36.54 ÷ 18 = $2.06 per piece of sandpaper.

Answer: 389

Step-by-step explanation: well if there is lollipops for $2.50 each and they sold thrice as many lollipops then they have sold 7.5 of the lollipops and if you sell thrice of the cookies then that will be 31.5 and if you add 7.5 and 31.5 that will be 39 so the real answer is 389.

for events A and B, P(A)= 3/14 and P(B)= 1/5. Also, P(A and B)= 3/65. Are A and B independent events?
Lady_Fox [76]

No, A and B are not independent events

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us study the meaning independent probability  

  • Two events are independent if the result of the second event is not  affected by the result of the first event
  • If A and B are independent events, the probability of both events  is the product of the probabilities of the both events  P (A and B) = P(A) · P(B)

∵ P(A) = \frac{3}{14}

∵ P(B) = \frac{1}{5}

∴ P(A) . P(B) = \frac{3}{14} × \frac{1}{5}

∴ P(A) . P(B) = \frac{3(1)}{14(5)}

∴ P(A) . P(B) = \frac{3}{70}

∵ P(A and B) = \frac{3}{65}

∵ P(A) . P(B) = \frac{3}{70}

- The two answers are not equal

∴ P (A and B) ≠ P(A) · P(B)

- In independent events P (A and B) = P(A) · P(B)

∴ A and B are not independent events

No, A and B are not independent events

The landscape artist who designed New York City’s
timama [110]

The landscape artist who designed New York City’s Central Park believed that providing scenic settings accessible to all would not only benefit the public’s physical and mental health <u>and also foster a sense of democracy. </u> (Option D: but also foster a sense of democracy).

<h3>What is sentence correction?</h3>

Sentence correction or sentence improvement is a type of grammatical practice where a sentence is given with a word or a phrase that requires grammatical changes or improvement.

Now,

  • When 'not only' is used, 'but also' must come after it. When utilizing a correlative conjunction like "not only," "but also," the goal should be parallelism, meaning that the words that come after both sides of the conjunction should be from the same part of speech.
  • Here, using 'and' after 'not only...' distorts the structure of the sentence.

Hence, Option D is the right response, i.e., The landscape artist who designed New York City’s Central Park believed that providing scenic settings accessible to all would not only benefit the public’s physical and mental health <u>and also foster a sense of democracy. </u> (Option D: but also foster a sense of democracy).
