Answer:

  • 10 candles

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Jane's caldles:</u>

  • Cost = $20, Price = $3 per candle

<u>Chris's candles:</u>

  • Cost = $40, Price = $5 per candle

<u>Profit, if equal per x candles is:</u>

  • 3x - 20 = 5x - 40
  • 5x - 3x = 40 - 20

Each will have profit of $10 if 10 candles sell

Just carpet has eight different quality grades of carpeting. Three types are being selected for a corporate test on durability.
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

When we have a set of N elements, the number of combinations of K elements (such that N ≤ K) from these N elements is:

C(N, K) = \frac{N!}{(N - K)!*K!}

Then if we have 8 different types of carpet, and we want to see how many different samples of 3 types we can choose, we just need to replace N by 8, and K by 3 in the above equation:

C(8, 3) = \frac{8!}{(8 - 3)!*3!} = \frac{8!}{5!*3!} = \frac{8*7*6}{3*2} = 56

So there are 56 different samples.

Now we can do the same, but this time we want to use 5 types of carpet, then we will have K = 5.

C(8, 5) = \frac{8!}{(8 - 5)!*5!} = \frac{8!}{3!*5!}  = 56

Again, we have 56 different samples.

spayn [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do this in Python

day = 1

balance = 0

deposit = 0.01  # first deposit is 1 penny

while balance < 1000000: # execute the loop as long as balance is less than a million dollar

    balance += deposit

    deposit = deposit * 2 # double the deposit for the next time

    day += 1 # add one to day for the next day

print(day) # print out result once loop ends
