\bf \cfrac{5}{x}+\cfrac{1}{3}x=\cfrac{4x}{3}\implies \cfrac{5}{x}+\cfrac{x}{3}=\cfrac{4x}{3}

now, the cheap answer will be, let's just get the LCD of all those fractions, hmm let's see is 3x, and multiply all the fractions by the LCD, that way, getting rid of the denominators.

\bf \cfrac{5}{x}+\cfrac{1}{3}x=\cfrac{4x}{3}\implies \cfrac{5}{x}+\cfrac{x}{3}=\cfrac{4x}{3}\impliedby \times \stackrel{LCD}{3x}
\\\\\\
\boxed{3x}\cdot \cfrac{5}{x}+\boxed{3x}\cdot \cfrac{x}{3}=\boxed{3x}\cdot \cfrac{4x}{3}\implies 15+x^2=4x^2\implies 15=3x^2
\\\\\\
\cfrac{15}{3}=x^2\implies 5=x^2\implies \pm\sqrt{5}=x

o-na [289]
They must sell, 30 cups of lemonade. How I got my answer.

Since it cost $1.20 to start, and a cup of lemonade cost $0.6 to make and there selling them at $0.10 each. So we know they are making a $0.4 profit off of each cup of lemonade. We now have to multiply 4×30=120.

I hope this helps!

True [87]

Answer:

The probabilty of having at least one pink bulb if 4 bulbs are purchased is 13%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion of pink bulbs is p=0.4.

If X is the amount of pink bulbs in a group of 4 bulbs, we can model this as a binomial distribution problem.

The probability that at least one of the bulbs is pink is P(X≥1)

P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X=0)=1-(\binom{4}{0}p^0(1-p)^4)\\\\P(X\geq 1)=(1-p)^4=0.6^4=0.1296

The probabilty of having at least one pink bulb if 4 bulbs are purchased is 13%.
