A company that makes nails finds that it would sell 42 boxes of nails per month if they are priced at $20 per box. If the compan

y lowers the price to $10 per box, then more people would purchase nails and the company could expect to sell 52 boxes per month. Find the equation of the line for the demand equation if x represents the number of boxes sold and y is the price of a box of nails.
A.) y = 62 + x
B.) y = 42 − x
C.) y = 42 + x
D.) y = 62 − x

The answer is D.

If x = number of boxes sold and y = price of nails box, then it is best represented by the equation y = 62 - x.
Checking:
If y = 20 and x = 42, 
20 = 62 - 42
20 = 20

If y = 10 and x = 52.
10 = 62 - 52
10 = 10

Identify the volume of the composite figure, rounded to the nearest tenth. PLEASE HELP!!!
Anni [7]

Answer:

The volume of the composite figure is:

  • <u>312 ft^3</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the volume of the composite figure, you can divide it in the known figures there, in this case, you can divide the figure in a cube and a pyramid with a square base. Now, we find the volume of each figure and finally add the two volumes.

<em>VOLUME OF THE CUBE. </em>

Finding the volume of a cube is actually simple, you only must follow the next formula:

  • Volume of a cube = base * height * width

So:

  • Volume of a cube = 6 ft * 6 ft * 6 ft
  • <u>Volume of a cube = 216 ft^3 </u>

<em>VOLUME OF THE PYRAMID. </em>

The volume of a pyramid with a square base is:

  • Volume of a pyramid = 1/3 B * h

Where:

<em>B = area of the base. </em>

<em>h = height. </em>

How you can remember, the area of a square is base * height, so B = 6 ft * 6 ft = 36 ft^2, now we can replace in the formula:

  • Volume of a pyramid = 1/3 36 ft^2 * 8 ft
  • <u>Volume of a pyramid = 96 ft^3 </u>

Finally, we add the volumes found:

  • Volume of the composite figure = 216 ft^3 + 96 ft^3
  • <u>Volume of the composite figure = 312 ft^3</u>

Write L if it is likely to happen and U if unlikely to happen.
maria [59]

Answer:

Probabilities

        Likely to happen (L)      Unlikely to happen (U)

a.      4/5                                 5/8

b.     3/5                                  3/8

c.     4/5                                  4/7

d.    0.3                                  0.09

e.    5/6 and 4/5                   2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Probabilities in Percentages:

a. The probability of 4/5 = 80% and 5/8 = 62.5%

b. The probability of 3/8 = 37.5% and 3/5 = 60%

c. The probability of 4/5 = 80% and 4/7 = 57%

d. The probability of 0.3 = 30% and 0.09 = 9%

e. The probability of 2/3 = 67% and 4/5 = 80% and 5/6 = 83%

b) To determine the relative values of the fractional probabilities, it is best to reduce them to their fractional or percentage terms.  When this is done, the relative sizes become obvious, and then, comparisons can be made.

ack has a collection of 10 pairs of gloves in his wardrobe. Before a business trip, he has to pack his luggage, and he selects 8
Leto [7]

Answer:

\frac{{10 \choose 8}2^8}{{20 \choose 8}}\approx 0.091

Step-by-step explanation:

We can think of the 10 pairs of gloves as simply being gloves of different colors. Picking no matching pair is the same as picking no 2 gloves of the same color. To compute the probability of doing so, we can compute the number of ways to select 8 gloves from different colors, and divide that by the total number of ways to select 8 random gloves out of the 20 gloves.

To compute the number of ways in which we can select 8 gloves from different colors, we can think of the choosing procedure as follows:

1st step- We choose from which 8 colors are we going to pick gloves from. So we have to pick 8 out of 10 colors. This can be done in {10 \choose 8} ways.

2nd step - We now have to choose which glove are we going to pick from each of the chosen colors. Either the left one or the right one. For the first chosen color we have 2 choices, for the second chosen color we have 2 choices, for the third chosen color we have 2 choices, and so on. Therefore the number of ways in which we could choose gloves from the chosen colors is 2^8

And so the total number of ways in which we could choose 8 gloves from different colors is

{10 \choose 8 }2^8

Now, the total numer of ways in which we could choose 8 gloves out of the 20 gloves is simply {20 \choose 8}

So the probability of picking no mathing pair is

\frac{{10 \choose 8}2^8}{{20 \choose 8}}\approx 0.091
