Answer:
Nickles: 96 times
Penny: 48 times
Step-by-step explanation:
5+3+8+4 = 20 coins in total
20x = 240
x=12 (chance of a coin being picked)
8 nickles(12) = 96
4 pennies(12) = 48
Answer:
n = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
given m varies directly as n then the equation relating them is
m = kn ← k is the constant of variation
to find k use the condition m = 6 when n = 5
6 = 5k ( divide both sides by 5 )
k = 
= 1.2
m = 1.2n ← equation of variation
when m = 12 , then
12 = 1.2n ( divide both sides by 1.2 )
10 = n
Answer:
a) The arithmetic sequence with common difference 2 that has 8 as the first term.
b) The arithmetic sequence of common difference -5 and first term 15.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use for example the arithmetic sequence with common difference 2 that has 8 as the first term. Then the first two terms of this sequence are:
8, and (8+2) = 10 Therefore the second term is 10.
Another arithmetic sequence of common difference -5 and first term 15. The firs two terms of this sequence are:
15, and (15 - 5) = 10. Therefore again a 10 as second term.
Answer:
17 and 44
Step-by-step explanation:
Let S = smaller number, then L = the larger = 3S - 7
The sum = 3S - 7 + S = 4S - 7 = 61
4S = 68
S = 17 and L = 44
Answer:
a) Profit = 84000
b) at break even number of pens sold = 46
Step-by-step explanation:
Profit = Selling price - Cost price
Total revenue generated = 99 * 1000
Total revenue generated = 99000
Total cost on making the pen = 11 * 1000
Total cost on making the pen = 11000
Total cost including the initial cost = 11000 + 4000
Total cost including the initial cost = 15000
Profit = 99000 - 15000
Profit = 84000
Break even is when the cost are equal to Revenue thus no profit or loss
Revenue = total cost (break even)
9x = 1x + 4000
9x - x = 4000
8x = 4000
x = 500
At breakeven Revenue = 9 * 500
At breakeven Revenue = 4500
since one pen is sold at 99 therefore at break even number of pens sold = 4500/99 = 45.45( to 2 decimal place)
at break even number of pens sold = 46
