T = Tracy's age.

We will use the letter T, because we have no clue what Tracy's age is. And most algebraic expressions have letters related to the problem. We know that Tracy is older than 6 so we have to do T - 6 we know this is subtraction due to the word "less than" so you algebraic expression/answer is T - 6. I hope my answer was a pretty understanding and that you get it now! :D

Answer:

$\dfrac{14}{29}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(A) be the probability that goggle of type A is manufactured

P(B) be the probability that goggle of type B is manufactured

P(E) be the probability that a goggle is returned within 10 days of its purchase.

According to the question,

P(A) = 30%

P(B) = 70%

P(E/A) is the probability that a goggle is returned within 10 days of its purchase given that it was of type A.

P(E/B) is the probability that a goggle is returned within 10 days of its purchase given that it was of type B.

$P(A \cap E)$ will be the probability that a goggle is of type A and is returned within 10 days of its purchase.

$P(B \cap E)$ will be the probability that a goggle is of type B and is returned within 10 days of its purchase.

$P(E \cap A) = P(A) \times P(E/A)$

$P(E \cap A) = \dfrac{30}{100} \times \dfrac{5}{100}\\\Rightarrow P(E \cap A) = 1.5 \%$

$P(E \cap B) = P(B) \times P(E/B)$

$P(E \cap B) = \dfrac{70}{100} \times \dfrac{2}{100}\\\Rightarrow P(E \cap B) = 1.4 \%$

$P(E) = 1.5 \% + 1.4 \% \\P(E) = 2.9\%$

If a goggle is returned within 10 days of its purchase, probability that it was of type B:

$P(B/E) = \dfrac{P(E \cap B)}{P(E)}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1.4 \%}{2.9\%}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{14}{29}$

So, the required probability is $\dfrac{14}{29}.$

Please simplify the expression.

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

1) 15a - 15c + 3

2) -7n + 31 + 13m + 7p or 13m - 7n + 7p + 31

3) 44x + 6y + 3

4) 9m - 6n + 23

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add like terms. 6a + 9a=15a. -8c - 7c=-15c

2. Add like terms. You can rearrange them in descending order based off of exponents and variables.

3. Multiply what's in parentheses first (distribute the 6). It should end up being (6y + 42x). Then you add like terms and put in descending order.

4. Distribute the (-3) to what in the parentheses. It should end up being (-6n + 15 - 3m). Then you add like terms and put the expression in descending order.

MathematicalUse Number Sense Duane and Mick are savingtheir money to build a tree house. Duane adds $5 to their piggybank every

Elina [12.6K]

Assuming they start saving at 0 dollars

45=total=duanesavings+micksavings
duanesavings=confusing, I will explain
mick savings =amount saves per week times number of weeks

duane saves 5 dollars every other week, aka 2.5 dollars per 1 week
DS=2.5w
MS=2w

since they save at same time and at that week, when the weeks are equal (w=w), 45 it total

DS+MS=45
2.5w+2w=45
4.5w=45
divide by 4.5 both sides
w=10

10 weeks
