The answer could possibly be -48+11=-37
Answer:
0.25x -12= 18- 0.55x (subtract 0.25x from both sides)
-12= 18 -0.80x (subtract 18 from both sides)
-30= -0.80x (divide each side by -0.80)
x= 37.5 (this is your answer)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 8 Jonathan (red), 4 Granny Smith (green), and 5 Golden Delicious (yellow) apples in the bag.
a) Select 3 apples with replacement. Find the probability that all there are green.
- Given that we are taking all apples with replacement, the probability of getting a green apples remains the same in all 3 trials. Therefore the probability here is computed as:
- = (Number of green apples/Total apples)
Therefore 0.0130 is the required probability here.
b) Select 3 apples with replacement. Find the probability that none are red
Probability that none are red is computed here as:
- = (Number of non red apples/Total apples)
Therefore 0.14838 is the required probability here
c) Select 4 apples with replacement. Find the probability that you get at least 2 red apples
- Probability that we get at least 2 red apples when 4 apples are drawn is computed here as:
- = 1 - (Probability that no red apple is taken out when 4 apples are taken out + Probability that 1 red apple is taken out when 4 apples are taken out)
- = 1 - 8C0 x 9C4 + 8C1 x 9C3 / 17C4
Therefore 0.6647 is the required probability here
d) Select 2 apples with replacement. Find the probability that the second apple is yellow given that the first apple is red.
- Given that the first apple is red, we are left with 16 apples out of which 5 are yellow. Therefore the required probability here is computed as:
Therefore 0.3125 is the required probability here

Answer: The required system of equations representing the given situation is
Step-by-step explanation: Given that Sam needs to make a long-distance call from a pay phone.
We are to write a system to represent the situation.
Let x represent the number of minutes Sam talked on the phone and y represents the total amount that he paid for the call.
According to the given information,
with prepaid phone card, Sam will be charged $1.00 to connect and $0.50 per minute.
So, the equation representing this situation is
Also, if Sam places a collect call with the operator he will be charged $3.00 to connect and $0.25 per minute.
So, the equation representing this situation is
Thus, the required system of equations representing the given situation is
