Answer:

First mechanic: 12.8 hours & Second mechanic:12.8 hours

First mechanic made 832$ & Second mechanic made 768$

Hope this is right. If not I apologize and please let me know:)

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would do 65+60=125. You do this to find how much they charge together. Then you would take the amount of money they make and divide that from 125: 1600/125=12.8. Now that you have 12.8 you would plug that in for each mechanic: 65 times 12.8=832 and 60 times 12.8=768. Now you have the amount of money each mechanic made and the amount of hours they worked.

The annual snowfall in city A is 58.7 inches. This is 12.5 inches more than six times the snowfall in city B. Find the annual sn
Lelechka [254]
The annual snowfall for city B is 7.7 inches. 
Since it is 12.5 inches more: 58.7 - 12.5 = 46.2
Since 46.2 is 6 times that of city B: 46.2 / 6 = 7.7

The table shows the relationship between the cost of renting a car from the Wrecko Car Rental Company and the number of days for
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The cost of renting the car for 20 days is $481

Step-by-step explanation:

The table of values can be formed as follows;

Day,   Cost

1,         $44

2,        $67

3,        $90

4,        $113

7,        $182

10,      $251

From the given values and the scatter plot, there is a straight line relationship between the cost and the number of days of rental of a car.

The line of best fit is therefore a straight line and from the constant increase in cost ($23) for each extra day of rental, it is possible to find the slope, m, of the data as follows;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

(x₁, y,) and (x₂, y₂) can be taken as (1, $44) and (3, $90) respectively to give;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{90-44}{3-1} = \dfrac{46}{2} = 23 \ as \ stated \ above

The equation in slope and intercept form is therefore, y  - 44 = 23×(x - 1), which gives;

y - 44 = 23·x - 23

y = 23·x - 23 + 44 = 23·x + 21

The cost of renting the car for 20 days is then;

10×23 + 21 = $481

The cost of renting the car for 20 days = $481.

In Happyville, the ideal family has four children, at least two of which are girls. If you randomly select a Happyville family t
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

0.3125 = 31.25% probability that it is not ideal.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each children, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a girl, or they are not. The probability of a child being a girl is independent of any other child. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which 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)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

0.5 probability of a children being a girl:

This means that p = 0.5

If you randomly select a Happyville family that has four children, what is the probability that it is not ideal?

Not ideal is less than two girls, so this is P(X < 2).

Four children means that n = 4. So

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.0625

P(X = 1) = C_{4,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.25

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0625 + 0.25 = 0.3125

0.3125 = 31.25% probability that it is not ideal.
