Answer:

  a = $0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of a sharpener is 'a', and the cost of a folder is $2.80 more, so is a+2.80. The total cost of 4 sharpeners and 7 folders is ...

  4a +7(a+2.80) = 30.05

  11a = 10.45 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 19.60

  a = 0.95 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 11

The cost of a sharpener is a = $0.95.

Fill in the blanks to complete the area model to solve 6.60 divided by 15 is the same as _ x ? = _ 6.60 = _ hundredths
storchak [24]

Answer:

15 x = 6.60

x = 44\ hundredths

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{6.60}{15}

Required

Complete the model

[ ] x = 6.60

x = _ hundredths

\frac{6.60}{15}

Equate to x

x = \frac{6.60}{15}

Multiply both sides by 15

15 * x = \frac{6.60}{15} * 15

15 * x = 6.60

15 x = 6.60

So, we have:

[ ] x = 6.60 =====> 15 x = 6.60

Recall that:

x = \frac{6.60}{15}

x = 0.44

This implies that:

x = 44\ hundredths

Hence:

x = _ hundredths =====> x = 44\ hundredths

An individual who has automobile insurance from a certain company is randomly selected. Let Y be the number of mov- ing violatio
Rudik [331]

Answer:

a) E(y) = 0.8

b) The average subcharge is $165

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following distribution in the question:

y:           0        1        2         3

P(y):   0.50   0.25   0.20   0.05

a) E(y)

E(y) = \displaystyle\sum y_iP(y_i)\\\\E(y) = 0(0.50)+1(0.25)+2(0.20)+3(0.05)\\E(y) = 0.8

b) Expected value of subcharge

Subcharge =

\$110y^2

Expected value of subcharge =

=110E(y^2)\\\\=110\displaystyle\sum y_i^2P(y_i)\\\\=110(0^2(0.50)+1^2(0.25)+2^2(0.20)+3^2(0.05))\\=110(1.5)=165

Thus, the average subcharge is $165
