Answer:

27 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Town A:

Initial population = 14280

Rate = increase by 160 per year

Let t = time in years

Population is thus :

14280 + 160t - - - (1)

Town B:

Initial population = 24000

Rate = decrease by 200 per year

P = 24000 - 200t - - - (2)

Equate both equations :

14280 + 160t = 24000 - 200t

160t + 200t = 24000 - 14280

360t = 9720

t = 9720 / 360

t = 27

Andy is blowing up a spherically shaped balloon. If he is able to blow 81π cm^3 of air with every breath, it takes him 12 breath
Allisa [31]

The radius of the balloon given the information in the question is 8.98cm.

<h3>What is the radius of the balloon?</h3>

The first step is to determine the volum of the balloon.

Volume = 81π cm^3 x 12 = 972π cm^3

Now, determine the radius using this formula:

∛[Volume / (4/3π )]

∛[972π cm^3/ (4/3π )] = 8.98cm

Here is the complete question:

How does the Counting Principle help when determining the sample space for a probability distribution?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

This is also known as the Counting rule.

The Fundamental Counting Principle is used in determining all the possible outcomes and the total possible ways different events can be combined with each other. It is usually done by multiplying all the events together to get the total possible outcome. Doing this also helps in determining the sample space of a probability.

For example there are events a, b and c. The total sample space or possible outcome will be a*b*c.

Please help! Correct answer only!
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

$15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 10 cards and a total possible prize of 30 dollars, the probability for each one is 30/10=3 dollars. And since 5 out of the 10 are even, you can multiply the individual amount by 5 to get a total estimated payout of $15. Hope this helps!
