Answer:

C. $72

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to know the answer, you have to know <em>how much is 40% of $120</em>. You can get the answer by using the <em>multiplication operation.</em>

Let's solve.

Let x be the discount of the candle basket.

x = 40% x $120

x = 0.40 x 120

x = $48

Next is to subtract the discount from the original price of the candle basket.

$120 - $48 = $72

<u>The sale price of the candle basket is $72.</u>

Suppose j varies jointly with g and v, and j=2 when g=4 and v=3. <br> Find j when g=8 and v=9.

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

$j=12$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a join variation, If j varies jointly with respect to g and v, the equation will be of the form $j = kgv$

where k is a constant

step 1

Find the value of k

we have

j=2,g=4,v=3

substitute and solve for k

$2 = k(4)(3)$

$2 = 12k$

$k=\frac{1}{6}$

The equation is equal to

$j=\frac{1}{6}gv$

step 2

Find the value of j when g=8,v=9

substitute the values in the equation and solve for j

$j=\frac{1}{6}(8)(9)$

$j=12$

Renee uses 12 marshmallows and 8 graham crackers to make 4 s'mores. Drag marshmallows and graham crackers into the box to show h

Anit [1.1K]

To find out how much is needed for 1 you will need to divide each given value by 4:
12 marshmallows / 4 = 3
8 graham crackers / 4 = 2
4 smores / 4 = 1
you then need to multiply each value by 3 :
3 marshmallows x 3 = 9
2 graham crackers x 3 = 6
1 smore x 3 = 3
therefore the answer would be :
9 marshmallows
6 graham crackers

hope this helps you

Due to a manufacturing error, two cans of regular soda were accidentally filled with diet soda and placed into a 18-pack. Suppos

crimeas [40]

Answer:

a) There is a 1.21% probability that both contain diet soda.

b) There is a 79.21% probability that both contain diet soda.

c) $P(X = 2)$ is unusual, $P(X = 0)$ is not unusual

d) There is a 19.58% probability that exactly one is diet and exactly one is regular.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only two possible outcomes. Either the can has diet soda, or it hasn't. So we use the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

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

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And $\pi$ is the probability of X happening.

A number of sucesses $x$ is considered unusually low if $P(X \leq x) \leq 0.05$ and unusually high if $P(X \geq x) \geq 0.05$

In this problem, we have that:

Two cans are randomly chosen, so $n = 2$

Two out of 18 cans are filled with diet coke, so $\pi = \frac{2}{18} = 0.11$

a) Determine the probability that both contain diet soda. P(both diet soda)

That is P(X = 2).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}(0.11)^{2}(0.89)^{0} = 0.0121$

There is a 1.21% probability that both contain diet soda.

b)Determine the probability that both contain regular soda. P(both regular)

That is P(X = 0).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}(0.11)^{0}(0.89)^{2} = 0.7921$

There is a 79.21% probability that both contain diet soda.

c) Would this be unusual?

We have that $P(X = 2)$ is unusual, since $P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) = 0.0121 \leq 0.05$

For P(X = 0), it is not unusually high nor unusually low.

d) Determine the probability that exactly one is diet and exactly one is regular. P(one diet and one regular)

That is P(X = 1).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{2,1}(0.11)^{1}(0.89)^{1} = 0.1958$

There is a 19.58% probability that exactly one is diet and exactly one is regular.
