Ella has 0.5 lbs of sugar. How much water should she add to make the following concentrations? Tell Ella how much syrup she will
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Ella should add 32\dfrac{5}{6} lbs of water.

Total weight of syrup 33\dfrac{1}{3} lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight:

Weight of sugar = 0.5 lbs.

Weight of water added = x lbs

Total weight = 0.5 + x lbs

Percentage:

0.5 + x  --  100%

0.5  --  1.5%

Write a proportion:

\dfrac{0.5+x}{0.5}=\dfrac{100}{1.5}

Cross multiply:

1.5(0.5+x)=0.5\cdot 100\\ \\0.75+1.5x=50\\ \\1.5x=50-0.75\\ \\1.5x=49.25\\ \\x=\dfrac{49.25}{1.5}=\dfrac{4,925}{150}=\dfrac{197}{6}=32 \dfrac{5}{6}\ lbs

Ella should add 32\dfrac{5}{6} lbs of water.

Total weight of syrup

32\dfrac{5}{6}+\dfrac{1}{2}=32\dfrac{5}{6}+\dfrac{3}{6}=33\dfrac{1}{3}\ lbs

According to an​ airline, flights on a certain route are on time 80 ​% of the time. suppose 10 flights are randomly selected and
natulia [17]
<span>(a) This is a binomial experiment since there are only two possible results for each data point: a flight is either on time (p = 80% = 0.8) or late (q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2).
​(b) Using the formula:</span><span>
P(r out of n) = (nCr)(p^r)(q^(n-r)), where n = 10 flights, r = the number of flights that arrive on time:
P(7/10) = (10C7)(0.8)^7 (0.2)^(10 - 7) = 0.2013
Therefore, there is a 0.2013 chance that exactly 7 of 10 flights will arrive on time.
​(c) Fewer than 7 flights are on time means that we must add up the probabilities for P(0/10) up to P(6/10).
Following the same formula (this can be done using a summation on a calculator, or using Excel, to make things faster):
P(0/10) + P(1/10) + ... + P(6/10) = 0.1209
This means that there is a 0.1209 chance that less than 7 flights will be on time.
​(d) The probability that at least 7 flights are on time is the exact opposite of part (c), where less than 7 flights are on time. So instead of calculating each formula from scratch, we can simply subtract the answer in part (c) from 1.
1 - 0.1209 = 0.8791.
So there is a 0.8791 chance that at least 7 flights arrive on time.
(e) For this, we must add up P(5/10) + P(6/10) + P(7/10), which gives us
0.0264 + 0.0881 + 0.2013 = 0.3158, so the probability that between 5 to 7 flights arrive on time is 0.3158.

On Naomi's cell phone plan, the amount she pays each month for international text messages is proportional to the number of inte
egoroff_w [7]

A. Constant of proportionality in this proportional relationship is; k=5

B. Equation to represent this proportional relationship is : c=t/k

Step-by-step explanation:

A.Given that : the amount she pays each month for international text messages is proportional to the number of international texts she sends, then

$3.20 k = 16  ---------where k is the constant of proportionality

k= 16/3.20 =5

k=5

B. Let c be the cost of sending the texts per month and t be the number of texts sent per month , so

c=t/k

c=t/5 ---------- is the proportionality relationship.

For t=16 , c= 16/5 =$3.20
