6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

19 x 2 = 38

Twice a quantity usually indicates to take two of the things in question; usually this indicates to multiply by 2. Thus "twice a number x" can be written symbolically as 2x. If this is part of a problem, say twice a number x is 6, then we can rewrite algebraically as 2x=6; dividing both sides by 2 yields x=3.

How much interest is earned on $1470 at 4% for six months

Elenna [48]

Answer:

$29.4

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the question is based on simple interest since you didn't specify

Using simple interest

Simple interest=P×R×T

Where,

P=principal=$1470

R=interest rate=4%=0.04

T=time=6 months=0.5 year

Simple interest=P×R×T

=1470×0.04×0.5

=29.4

Interest earned=$29.4

A bag had 7 orange rocks , 6 green rock , 1 white rock ,7 black rocks , and 2 yellow you randomly pull a rock from the bag ,keep

daser333 [38]

Answer:

$Probability = \frac{7}{253}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Orange = 7$

$Green = 6$

$White = 1$

$Black = 7$

$Yellow = 2$

Required

Probability of selecting a yellow then orange rock

From the question, we understand that the probability is that of without replacement.

Since the yellow, is first picked.

We need to determine the probability of picking a yellow rock, first.

$P(Yellow) = \frac{n(Yellow)}{Total}$

$P(Yellow) = \frac{2}{7 + 6 + 1 + 7 + 2}$

$P(Yellow) = \frac{2}{23}$

The rock has reduced by 1;

Next is to determine the probability of picking an orange rock

$P(Orange) = \frac{n(Orange)}{Total - 1}$

$P(Orange) = \frac{7}{7 + 6 + 1 + 7 + 2- 1}$

$P(Orange) = \frac{7}{22}$

The required probability is calculated as thus:

$Probability = P(Yellow) * P(Orange)$

$Probability = \frac{2}{23} * \frac{7}{22}$

$Probability = \frac{14}{506}$

$Probability = \frac{7}{253}$

Joe works as a busboy making $7 per hour and as a theater usher making $9 per hour. Let b be the number of hours he works as a b

Vilka [71]

Answer:

The inequality describing the situation is:

$7b+9u>1500$

Step-by-step explanation:

Joe works as a busboy at the rate of = $7 per hour

Let the number of hours he works as a bus boy this month be = $b$ hours

∴ Amount Joe would make this month working as a busboy = $\$7\times b=\$7b$

Joe works as a theater usher at the rate of = $9 per hour

Let the number of hours he works as a theater usher this month be = $u$ hours

∴ Amount Joe would make this month working as a theater usher = $\$9\times u=\$9u$

Total amount Joe would make this month = $\$(7b+9u)$

His goal is earn more than $1500 this month.

∴ The situation can be represented in the following inequality:

$7b+9u>1500$
