Answer:

It will take him about 13 houses to sell the 5 candy bars.

Pat has an 18% chance of selling his last candy in the 11th house.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Pat is required to sell candy bars to raise money for the 6th grade field trip, and there is a 40% chance of him selling a candy bar at each house, and he has to sell 5 candy bars in all, to determine the number of houses it takes and determine the probability he sells his last candy bar at the 11th house, the following calculations must be performed:

5 / 0.40 = X

12.5 = X

So, it will take him about 13 houses to sell the 5 candy bars.

5/11 = X

0.45 = X

0.45 x 0.4 = 0.18

Thus, Pat has an 18% chance of selling his last candy in the 11th house.

I need help with letter B, please!
Gala2k [10]

So if you want to fit the y-intercepts or "b", on the y-axis you should go by 25's [0, 25, 50, 75, 100...]

If the x-axis <u>does not have to</u> follow the same pattern (25's), you should go by 5's  [0, 5, 10, 15, 20...]

y = 7x + 50

y = 2x + 175

First I would plot the y-intercepts for each equation, then plot a few points with x = 5, 10, 15      Then draw a straight line.

The point where the two lines meet/cross paths is your solution. It should be (25, 225)  The x-axis is the number of miles, and the y-axis is the total cost. So Truck driver A and B would arrive/be at the same place/meet in 25 miles at the same cost of $225

What is the exponential form of log5 15,625 = 6?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

I'm currently having the same lesson.

Exponential form:

5⁶ = 15,625

The number next to the "log" symbol is the base, which is positioned down. Next to the base of the exponent is the result of the exponent.

The number after the equal sign is the exponent.
