Company A: y = 50x + 15
Company B: y = 130x + 55

Set the equations equal to each other and solve for x (number of weeks).
50x + 15 = 130x + 55

Subtract 50x from both sides:
15 = 80x + 55

Subtract 55 from both sides:
-40 = 80x

Did you have a typo? The companies will never have the same cost because company B costs so much more and weeks cannot be negative.

Sholpan [36]

Answer and explanation:

Given : A driving exam consists of 29 multiple-choice questions. Each of the 29 answers is either right or wrong. Suppose the probability that a student makes fewer than 6 mistakes on the exam is 0.26 and that the probability that a student makes from 6 to 20 (inclusive) mistakes is 0.53.

Let X be the number of mistake

$P(X$

$P(6\leq X\leq 20)=0.53$

To find : The probability of each of the following outcomes.

a) A student makes more than 20 mistakes

i.e. $P(X>20)$

$P(X>20)=1-P(X\leq 20)$

$P(X>20)=1-(P(X\leq 5)+P(6\leq X\leq 20))$

$P(X>20)=1-(0.26+0.53)$

$P(X>20)=1-(0.79)$

$P(X>20)=0.21$

b. A student makes 6 or more mistakes

i.e. $P(X\geq 6)=1-P(X$

$P(X\geq 6)=1-0.26$

$P(X\geq 6)=0.74$

c. A student makes at most 20 mistakes

i.e. $P(X\leq 20)=1-P(X>20)$

Using 'a' part $P(X>20)=0.21$

$P(X\leq 20)=1-0.21$

$P(X\leq 20)=0.79$

d. Which two of these three events are complementary?

The complement of an event happening is the exact opposite: the probability of it not happening.

According to definition,

Option a and c are complementary events.

--<br> Choose the correct simplification of the expression -5x2(4x – 6x2 – 3).

$\huge \bf༆ Answer ༄$

Let's simply ~

${ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}} \: \: \sf \: - 5 {x}^{2} (4x - 6 {x}^{2} - 3)$

${ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}} \: \: \sf \:( - 5x {}^{2} \times 4x) - ( - 5 {x}^{2} \times 6 {x}^{2} ) - ( - 5 {x}^{2} \times 3)$

${ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}} \: \: \sf \: - 20 {x}^{3} - ( - 30 {x}^{4} ) - ( - 15 {x}^{2} )$

${ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}} \: \: \sf \: - 20 {x}^{3} + 30 {x}^{4} + 15 {x}^{2}$

${ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}} \: \: \sf \:30 {x}^{4} - 20 {x}^{3} + 15 {x}^{2}$

Michela says that the modes of the two data are the same so the median and mean must also be the same. what is michela’s error?

aev [14]

Answer: median and mean are the same

Step-by-step explanation:

The error committed by Michela is by saying

The median and mean are the same.

Because in statistics, we can't use mode to predict the median and the mean.

a baseball glove was on sale for 5/6 of the original price. if the original price was $90 what was the sale price

grandymaker [24]

since the original price was ninety we have to multiply 5/6 by 90
90/1(5/6)
=450/6
=75
