9.50 + (2.20)r

For example if he fixed 3 watches

9.50 + (2.20)3

We plug in 3 for r and he makes 6.60 extra.

Answer:

1. <u>9</u>.<u>5h</u>

2. <u>2</u>.<u>2r</u> + <u>9</u>.<u>5h</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the correct way to write the expression. Based on the order of operations, always solve operations in parentheses first. Here, you'd add 4 + 2, then multiply that sum by 5—in other words, exactly what was written in the original expression.

What are four ways to represent functions?

telo118 [61]

A function can be represented verbally. For example, the circumference of a square is four times one of its sides.
A function can be represented algebraically. For example, 3x+6 3 x + 6 .
A function can be represented numerically.
A function can be represented graphically.

Nour and Rana are shopping for a Christmas tree. They are deciding between 222 different types of trees (real and fake) and 444

ioda

From what the statement says the question seems to be to represent the sample space of randomly choosing a type of tree and a color for the decorations

In this case, what we must do is identify the events that exist and the options that each event has, like this:

Event 1:

Tree type: real or fake

Event 2:

Colors for the ornaments: White (W), Silver (S), Gold (G) or Purple (P)

Since in an event there are 2 options and the other 4 options, the final number of options would be 2 * 4, that is, 8 options, represented below:

(real, W), (real, S), (real, G), (real, P), (fake, W), (fake, S), (fake, G), (fake, P)

The above would be the sample space of the events.

Now the probability of 1 coming out is 1 over the event total, or 1/8.

The 65 students in a classical music lecture class were polled, with the following results: 37 like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 36 l

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

a) 25

b) 30

c) 10

d) Not Mozart, 6

e) 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We use a Venn Diagram to solve this question.

I am going to say that:

A are the students who like Mozart.

B are the students who like Beethoven

C are the students who like Haydn.

We have that:

$A = a + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

In which a are those who only like Mozart, $(A \cap B)$ are those who like Mozart and Beethoven, $(A \cap C)$ are those who like Mozart and Haydn and $(A \cap B \cap C)$ are those who like all three of them.

By the same logic, we have that:

$B = b + (A \cap B) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

$C = c + (B \cap C) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

We start finding these values from the intersection:

8 like all three composers

This means that $A \cap B \cap C = 8$

14 like Beethoven and Haydn

This means that:

$(B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 14$

So

$B \cap C = 6$

21 like Mozart and Haydn

This means that:

$(A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 21$

Then

$A \cap C = 13$

14 like Mozart and Beethoven

This means that:

$(A \cap B) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 14$

$A \cap B = 6$

31 like Franz Joseph Haydn

This means that C = 31. So

$C = c + (B \cap C) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

$31 = c + 6 + 13 + 8$

$c = 4$

36 like Ludwig van Beethoven

This means that $B = 36$

So

$B = b + (A \cap B) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

$36 = b + 6 + 6 + 8$

$b = 16$

37 like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

This means that A = 37. Then

$A = a + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

$37 = a + 6 + 13 + 8$

$a = 10$

a. exactly two of these composers?

$(A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) = 6 + 13 + 6 = 25$

b. exactly one of these composers?

$a + b + c = 10 + 16 + 4 = 30$

c. like only Mozart?

$a = 10$

d. like Beethoven and Haydn, but not Beethoven?

I will use not Mozart.

So $B \cap C = 6$

Not Mozart, 6.

e. like none of these composers?

At least 1:

$(A \cup B \cup C) = a + b + c + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 10 + 16 + 4 + 6 + 13 + 6 + 8 = 63$

The total is 65

So 65 - 63 = 2 like none of these composers
