A candy shop sells a box of chocolates for $30. It has $29 worth of chocolates plus $1 for the box. The box includes two kinds o

f candy; caramels and truffles. Lita knows how much the different types of candies cost per pound and how many pounds are in the box. She said if x is the number of caramels included in the box and y is the number of pounds of truffles in the box then I can write the following equations based on what I know about one of these boxes:
X+y=3
8x+12y+1=30


How many pounds of candy are in the box?

What is the price per pound of the caramels?

What does the term 12y in the second equation represent?

What does 8x+12y+1 in the second equation represent?

The promising alternative energy sources currently under development are fuel cell technology and large-scale solar energy power
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Denote the event of commercially availability of f_uel cell technology as F_, commercial availability of solar power technology as S

Write the probability of energy supplied by these energy sources in the next 10 years  

P(energy supplied) = P(S ∪ F) -----(1)

Rewrite eqn (1)

P(energy supplied) = P(S) + P(F) - P(F) P(S) ----(2)

substitute 0.85 for P(S) and 0,7 for P(F) in eqn (2) to find the probability of energy supplied by these energy sources

P(energy supplied) = 0.85 + 0.7 - (0.7 * 0.85)

= 0.85 + 0.7 - (0.595)

= 1.55 - 0.595

= 0.955

Therefore, the probability that there will be energy supplied by these two alternative sources in the next 10 years is 0.955

B) write the probability of only one source of energy available

P(only one source of energy available) = P(\bar F S) ∪ P( \bar S F) ---(3)

Rewrite the equation (3)

P(only one source of energy available) =

=P(\bar F S)+P(\bar S F)\\\\=\{[1-P(F)]P(S)+[1-P(S)]P(F)\}---(4)

=\{[1-0.7]0.85+[1-0.85]0.7\}\\\\=0.255+0.105\\\\=0.36

Therefore,The probability that only one of the two alternative energy sources will be commercially viable in the next 10 years is 0.36
