Answer:

3.803% Profit

Step-by-step explanation:

First let us calculate total sales, then calculate the total cost, and then divide the two.

Sale: 120*1.1=132 and 52*.9=46.8

Cost: 120 and 52

Profit equation:

\frac{Net sales-COGS}{Net Sales} =Profit

\frac{(132+46.8)-(120+52)}{(132+46.8)}

Simplify:

\frac{6.8}{178.8} =.03803 or 3.803% Profit

If there are 420 students surveyed, which equation can be used to find the number of students s who prefer rap? Pop: 5/8 Jazz: 1
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

B. s=\dfrac{1}{4}\times420

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students surveyed = 420

Of which only \dfrac{1}{4} prefer rap.

So, the number of people who like rap is the product of the fraction of people who prefer rap and the total number of students.

\text{Number of students who prefer rap}=s=\dfrac{1}{4}\times420\\\Rightarrow s=105

The number of students that prefer rap is 105

So the equation is s=\dfrac{1}{4}\times420.

The Gaineys and the Arnolds are saving money for a trip to Utah to go snowboarding. The Arnolds are going to save a nickel on th
Debora [2.8K]

Write a recursive and explicit formula for each option.

  • The Arnolds

Save a nickel on the first day of the month and then double the amount each day for a month

=> a1 =0.05

=> a2 = a1* 2 = 0.05*2

=> a3 = a2*2 = a1* 2*2

..............................................

=>recursive an = a_{n-1} *2

=> explicit an = 0.05*2^{n-1}

  • The Gaineys

Start their savings by saving  $10  on the first day and then  $10  each day of the month

=> a1 = 10

=> a2 = a1 + 10 = 20

=> a3 = a2 +10 = 20 +10 =30

........................................................

=> recursive an = a_{n-1} +10

=> explicit an = 10 + 10( n-1)

Hope it will find you well.

Your neighbor has a bag with 5 oranges and 7 apples in it. You will be receiving two pieces of fruit from your neighbor. What is
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

31.82% probability that you will receive 2 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fruits are removed from the bag, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In this question:

5 + 7 = 12 total fruits, which means that N = 12

7 apples, which means that k = 7

You receive 2 fruits, which means that n = 2

What is the probability, in percent, that you will receive 2 apples, assuming she removes them from the bag in random order?

This is, as a proportion, P(X = 2). So

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

P(X = 2) = h(2,12,2,7) = \frac{C_{7,2}*C_{5,0}}{C_{12,2}} = 0.3182

0.3182*100% = 31.82%

31.82% probability that you will receive 2 apples.
