Answer:

Yes it is possible to have an increase of 100%.

Retail price is 83.4$

Step-by-step explanation:

250 = x + (200% of x)

250 = 300% of x

so basically 250$ = 3x

250/3 = 83.3333334

So you can round it to $83.4

Hope this helps. I'm not entirely sure this is true but I hope it is.

a slitter assembly contains 48 blades five blades are selected at random and evaluated each day for sharpness if any dull blade
son4ous [18]

Answer:

P(at least 1 dull blade)=0.7068

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps.

This is what it's called dependent event probability, with the added condition that at least 1 out of 5 blades picked is dull, because from your selection of 5, you only need one defective to decide on replacing all.

So if you look at this from another perspective, you have only one event that makes it so you don't change the blades: that 5 out 5 blades picked are sharp. You also know that the probability of changing the blades plus the probability of not changing them is equal to 100%, because that involves all the events possible.

P(at least 1 dull blade out of 5)+Probability(no dull blades out of 5)=1

P(at least 1 dull blade)=1-P(no dull blades)

But the event of picking one blade is dependent of the previous picking, meaning there is no chance of picking the same blade twice.

So you have 38/48 on getting a sharp one on your first pick, then 37/47 (since you remove 1 sharp from the possibilities, and 1 from the whole lot), and so on.

Also since are consecutive events, you need to multiply the events.

The probability that the assembly is replaced the first day is:

P(at least 1 dull blade)=1-P(no dull blades)

P(at least 1 dull blade)=1-(\frac{38}{48}* \frac{37}{47} *\frac{36}{46}*\frac{35}{45}*\frac{34}{44})

P(at least 1 dull blade)=1-0.2931

P(at least 1 dull blade)=0.7068

How far apart are the foci of an ellipse with a major axis of 26 feet and a minor axis of 24 feet?
aleksley [76]
<span>Let the major axis = 2a , and the minor axis = 2b
∴ a = 26/2 = 13    and   b = 24/2 = 12
and the equation of foci:
c² = a² - b²
    = 13² - 12² = 169 - 144 = 25
∴ c = √25 = 5

∴ The distance between the foci = 2 * 5 = 10

Josiah has 3 packs of toy animals. eac pack has the same number of animals. josiah gives 6 animals to his sister stephanie. then
Nataliya [291]
To determine the number of animals in each pack, we need to understand each statement in the problem since these are key to obtaining the correct answer.

number of packs = 3
number of animals given to sister = 6
number of animals left = 9
total number of animals = 6+9 = 15

It is said the in each pack there is an equal number of animals. Therefore,

Number of animals per pack = 15 / 3 = 5 animals
