Answer:

20 is the greatest common denominator. You can find this by listing the factors of each number. The highest number that can fit into both individual numbers is the common denominator. Since 40 is just 20 doubled, and 20 is just 20 once, it fits into both numbers and is also the highest number that can fit.

A company that manufactures and sells consumer video cameras sells two versions of their popular hard disk​ camera, a basic came
saul85 [17]

Answer:

The percentage of customers who buy an extended warranty is 33%.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we have these following percentages.

35% of the customers select the basic camera.

This also means that:

65% of the customers select the deluxe version. (Since you can buy only two versions of the hard disk camera and the sum of the percentages is 100%).

20% of those who select the basic camera also purchase the extended warranty.

40% of those who select the deluxe version also purchase the extended warranty.

What is the percentage of customers who buy an extened warranty?

P = P_{1} + P_{2}

P_{1} is the percentage of those who buy the basic version with the extended warranty. So it is 20% of 35%. So

P_{1} = 0.20*0.35 = 0.07

P_{2} is the percentage of those who buy the deluxe version with the extended warranty. So it is 40% of 65%. So

P_{2} = 0.40*0.65 = 0.26

P = P_{1} + P_{2} = 0.07 + 0.26 = 0.33

The percentage of customers who buy an extended warranty is 33%.

\bf \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients} \\\\ y=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{-2}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+2}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{+3} \qquad \qquad  \left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}~~~~ ,~~~~  c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right)
