Moes tacos is .85 cent per taco while Taco Bell’s is .90 cent per taco therefore moes is a better deal.

Answer:

The one that sells 10 tacos for $8.49

To get the better deal, you should find the selling prices for a single tacos in both cases  and compare the amounts.

In the first one, 10 tacos for $8.49

This means 1 tacos sells for $8.49/10 = $0.849

In the second one, 6 for $5.40, this means for a single tacos, the selling price is $5.40/6 =$0.9

The better deal is the first one that sells one taco for $0.849 compared to the second one that sells one tacos for $0.9

Answer:

A: This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two or fewer roots.

B: The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 12x^2 + 5x - 2.

Since this is a quadratic equation, or a polynomial of second degree, one can easily conclude that this equation will have at most 2 roots. At most 2 roots mean that the function can have either 2 roots at maximum or less than 2 roots. Therefore, in the A category, 2nd option is the correct answer (This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x^2 + 5x − 2 = 0 has two or fewer roots).

To find the roots of f(x), set f(x) = 0. Therefore:

12x^2 + 5x - 2 = 0. Solving the question using the mid term breaking method shows that 12*2=24. The factors of 24 whose difference is 5 are 8 and 3. Therefore:

12x^2 + 8x - 3x - 2 = 0.

4x(3x + 2) -1(3x+2) = 0.

(4x-1)(3x+2) = 0.

4x-1 = 0 or 3x+2 = 0.

x = 1/4 or x = -2/3.

It can be seen that f(x) has two distinct real roots. Therefore, in the B category, 1st Option is the correct answer (The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots)!!!

huma has 4 bags of square inch tiles with 6 in each bag she uses them to meaure the area of a rectangle on her homework. ahter c
poizon [28]

Answer:

20 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of bags Huma has : 4

No. of tiles in one bag: 6

Total no . of tiles in 4 bag = 4 * No. of tiles in one bag

                                             = 4*6 = 24

No of tiles left with huma = 4

Let x be the no of tiles used to cover rectangle

Hence,

sum of no. of tiles left with huma and no of tiles used to cover rectangle should be equal to Total no . of tiles in 4 bag

mathematically

no. of tiles left with huma(4) + no of tiles used to cover rectangle (x) =  Total no . of tiles in 4 bag (24)

4 + x = 24

subtracting 4 from both sides

4 + x -4 = 24 - 4

=> x = 20

Thus, 20 square inches tiles are used to cover the rectangle.

This means that area of rectangle is 20 square inches .

certain virus infects one in every 300 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 80% of the time if the pe
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The probability that a person has the virus given that they have tested positive is P(A|B)=0.032.

The probability that a person does not have the virus given that they have tested negative is P(A'|B')=0.999.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The probability of B: "the person tests positive" is the sum of:

- The probability that a person has the virus and the test is positive.

P(A) \cdot P(B|A)

- The probability that a person don't have the virus but the test is positive.

P(not \,A) \cdot P(B|not\,A)

Then, the probability of B: "the person tests positive" is

P(A|B)=\frac{P(B|A)}{P(B)}=\frac{P(A)\cdot P(B|A)}{P(A)\cdot P(B|A)+P(A')\cdot P(B|A')}

We have

P(A)=1/300=0.0033\\\\P(A')=1-P(A)=0.9967\\\\P(B|A)=0.8\\\\P(B|A')=0.08

Then

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A)\cdot P(B|A)}{P(A)\cdot P(B|A)+P(A')\cdot P(B|A')}\\\\P(A|B)=\frac{0.0033*0.8}{0.0033*0.8+0.9967*0.08}= \frac{0.00264}{0.00264+0.07974}=\frac{0.00264}{0.08238}= 0.032

The probability that a person has the virus given that they have tested positive is P(A|B)=0.032.

b) The probability P(A'|B') is

P(A'|B')=\frac{P(B'|A')\cdot P(A')}{P(B'|A')\cdot P(A')+P(B'|A)\cdot P(A)}

We have

P(A)=0.0033\\\\P(A')=1-P(A)=0.9967\\\\P(B'|A)=1-0.8=0.2\\\\P(B'|A')=1-0.08=0.92

Then

P(A'|B')=\frac{P(B'|A')\cdot P(A')}{P(B'|A')\cdot P(A')+P(B'|A)\cdot P(A)}=\frac{0.92*0.9967}{0.92*0.9967+0.2*0.0033}= \frac{0.917}{0.917+0.00066}= 0.999

The probability that a person does not have the virus given that they have tested negative is P(A'|B')=0.999.
