Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4a + 1/3a + 8 = 22

Collect like terms

1/4a + 1/3a = 22 - 8

Simplify

3a+4a/12 = 14

7/12a = 14

Divide both sides by 7/12

a = 14 ÷ 7/12

= 14 × 12/7

= 168/7

= 24

a = 24

Check:

1/4a + 1/3a + 8 = 22

1/4(24) + 1/3(24) + 8 = 22

24/4 + 24/3 + 8 = 22

6 + 8 + 8 = 22

22 = 22

explain why in a drawer only containing two different colors of socks one must pull 3 out to find a matching pair?

Lorico [155]

If there are only two colors (let's say blue and red), here's what can happen:
sock #1 is blue
#2 is either blue or red. If blue, it matches #1 and you have a pair.
if red, go to #3
#3-either blue or red. If blue, matches #1. If red, matches #2.

OR sock #1 is red... then just reverse the colors. Basically, if you have three things that can only be in two groups, then even if two of them are different, the last one has to match one of them.

There are 100 people in a sport centre.

sleet_krkn [62]

By definition of complement,

Pr[not P | G and T] = 1 - Pr[P | G and T]

and by definition of conditional probability,

Pr[not P | G and T] = 1 - Pr[P and G and T] / Pr[G and T]

Pr[not P | G and T] = 1 - (16/100) / (33/100)

Pr[not P | G and T] = 1 - 16/33

Pr[not P | G and T] = 17/33

Jane wishes to bake an apple pie for dessert. The baking instructions say that she should bake the pie in an oven at a constant

pychu [463]

Answer:

A=152

K= -Ln(0.5)/14

Step-by-step explanation:

You can obtain two equations with the given information:

T(14 minutes) = 114◦C

T(28 minutes)=152◦C

Therefore, you have to replace t=14, T=114 and t=28, T=152 in the given equation:

$114=190-Ae^{-14k} (I) \\152=190-Ae^{-28k}(II)$

Applying the following property of exponentials numbers in (II):

$e^{a}.e^{b}=e^{a+b}$

Therefore $e^{-28k}$ can be written as $e^{-14k}.e^{-14k}$

$152=190-Ae^{-14k}.e^{14k}$

Replacing (I) in the previous equation:

$152=190-76e^{-14k}$

Solving for k:

Subtracting 190 both sides, dividing by -76:

$0.5=e^{-14k}$

Applying the base e logarithm both sides:

Ln(0.5)= -14k

Dividing by -14:

k= -Ln(0.5)/14

Replacing k in (I) and solving for A:

$Ae^{-14(-Ln(0.5)/14)}=76\\Ae^{Ln(0.5)} =76\\A(0.5)=76$

Dividing by 0.5

A=152

Sandy borrowed 6709 R.O from a bank to buy a piece of land. If the bank charges 12 1/3 % compounded each two months, what amount

enot [183]

Answer:

she is paying back 9112.5 R.O

Interest paid back is 2,403.95

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount, we use the compound interest formula.

This is given as;

A = I( 1 + r/n)^nt

where A is the amount we are trying to calculate

I is money borrowed = 6709

r is the interest rate = 12 1/3% = 37/3 = 12.33% which is same as 12.33/100 = 0.1233

n is the number of times interest is compounded. We have 15 2 months in 2 and a half years

t is the number of years = 2.5

Plugging these values, we have;

A = 6709(1 + 0.1233/15)^(15)(2.5)

A = 6709(1.0082)^(37.5)

A = 9112.95 R.O

Interest is amount - principal( money borrowed)

9112.95 - 6709 = 2403.95

Uma rede de supermercados fornece a seus clientes um cartão de crédito cuja identificação é formada por 3 letras distintas (dent

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The correct option is (A) 33,600.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is:

A supermarket chain provides its customers with a credit card whose identification is formed by 3 different letters (among 26), followed by 4 different digits. A given city will receive cards with L as the third letter, the last number is zero and the penultimate is 1. The total number of distinct cards offered by such supermarket chain for that city is A) 33600 B) 37800 C) 43200 D ) 58500 E) 67600

Solution:

The general format of the credit cards provided by a supermarket chain is as follows:

X X X # # # #

Here, X represents letters and # represents numbers.

All the three letters have to different and all the four numbers have to different, i.e. no repetition allowed.

It is provided that a given city will receive cards with L as the third letter, the last number is zero and the penultimate is 1.

Then the general format of this cities credit cards is as follows:

X X L # # 1 0

Now there are two spaces left for letters and 2 for numbers.

As there are no repetition allowed the two letter spaces can be filled by:

Number of ways to select 2 letters = 25 × 24 = 600

And the number of ways to select two numbers when there is no repetition allowed is:

Number of ways to select 2 numbers = 8 × 7 = 56

Compute the total number credit cards available at the supermarket as follows:

Total number credit cards = 600 × 56 = 33600

Thus, the total number of distinct cards offered by such supermarket chain for that city is 33,600.

The correct option is (A).
