3 0

Answer: 17 people

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide 8 3/4 and 1/2 and you get 17 1/2

And since the question asks how many people can he serve you use the whole number because its not fair if you give a full serving to a person and half a serving to another.

Rasek [7]

Answer:

If Ted can clear a football field of debris in 3 hours, in one hour they will have cleared 1/3 of it.

If Jacob can clear a football field of debris in 2 hours, in one hour they will have cleared 1/2 of it.

So if they work together, they will clear 1/2 + 1/3, which is 5/6, in one hour.

So the equation we get is 5/6*x = 1 and if we divide both sides by 5/6 we get that x = 1.2 hours

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The numbers of doors that will have no blemishes will be about 6065 doors

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of counts by the worker of each blemishes on the door be (X)

The distribution of blemishes followed the Poisson distribution with parameter $\lambda =0.5$ / door

The probability mass function on of a poisson distribution Is:

$P(X=x) = \dfrac{e^{- \lambda } \lambda ^x}{x!}$

$P(X=x) = \dfrac{e^{- \ 0.5 }( 0.5)^ x}{x!}$

The probability that no blemishes occur is :

$P(X=0) = \dfrac{e^{- \ 0.5 }( 0.5)^ 0}{0!}$

$P(X=0) = 0.60653$

P(X=0) = 0.6065

Assume the number of paints on the door by q = 10000

Hence; the number of doors that have no blemishes is = qp

=10,000(0.6065)

= 6065
