In one day, The Tool Shed rented out 25 self-propelled and riding mowers for a total fee of $900. The dolly rental cost was $20

for each self-propelled mower and $40 for each riding mower. Find the number of self-propelled mowers "(x)" and the number of riding mowers " (y)' rented for that day

They rented out 5 self-propelled mowers and 20 riding mowers.

Data;

  • Total number of tool rented out = 25
  • Cost of tools rented = $900

<h3>System of Equations</h3>

To solve this problem, we have to write a system of equations to represent the problem.

since we have

  • x = self - propelled mower
  • y = riding mowers

Let's write equations with these variables.

x+y = 25...equation (i)\\20x+40y = 900...equation(ii)

From equation (i)

x+y= 25\\x = 25 - y...equation(iii)

Put equation (iii) into equation (ii)

20x+40y=900\\x = 25-y\\20(25-y)+40y=900\\\\500-20y+40y=900\\500+20y=900\\20y=900-500\\20y=400\\\frac{20y}{20}=\frac{400}{20}\\ y=20

Let's substitute the value of y into equation(i)

x+y =25\\x+20 = 25\\x = 25 - 20\\x = 5

From the calculations above, they rented 5 self-propelled mowers and 20 riding mowers.

Answer:

So the value of s  = 7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that, Area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h

So, base = 24 cm

height = s

Area = 1/2 * b * h

=>84 = 1/2 * 24 * h

=>84 = 12 * h

=>84 / 12 = h

=> 7 = h (in cm)

A person creates a game in which a person pays $5.00 to play. Then, they draw a single card from a standard shuffled deck of car
valkas [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value is the probability of an event multiplied by the number of times the event happens. And if there is more than 1 event, the expected value is the sum of those.

There are 52 cards in a deck.

There are 12 face cards in a deck. (gain 10)

There are 4 ace in a deck. (gain 20)

Any other card is 36 of them. (lose 5)

The probability of face card is 12/52

The probability of ace is 4/52

The probability of any other card is 36/52

Thus the expected values is:

(12/52)(10) + (4/52)(20) + (36/52)(-5) = $0.38
