We are given that an expression which shows Jack's earning=2x-8

We have to find that first term what represent in the given expression

Jillian earns for each bag  of apples she sells=$2

Let Jillian sold number of bags of apples =x

Then ,Jillian earn total at the end of the week =2\timesx=$2x

Jack has earned $ 8 less than Jillian earn

Therefore, total earning of jack=2x-8

In the given expression the first term 2x represent the earning of Jillian.

Hence, option C is true.

Answer:

The first term (2x) represents Jillian's earnings at the end of the week. Where the 2 represents the amount of money she earns per pag, and the 'x' is the number of bags sold.

Let us explain this with an example: if Jillian sells 36 bags, then she will earn 2×36 = $72

Answer: 0.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : F is the event "works in the finishing department;"

and A is the event "is absent excessively."

Given : 10% of all plant employees work in the finishing department; 20% of all plant employees are absent excessively; and 7% of all plant employees work in the finishing department and are absent excessively.

i.e. P(A)= 0.20 ;  P(F)=0.10 ; P(A ∩ F) = 0.07

We know that P(X\cup Y)=P(X)+P(Y)-P(X\cap Y)

Then,

P(A\cup F)=P(A)+P(F)-P(A\cap F)\\\\\Rightarrow\ P(A\cup F)=0.20+0.10-0.07=0.23

Hence, the required answer is P(A\cup F)=0.23
