A general equation to use for this situation is y = mx + b.
For this question, we can assume that y is total cost, m is cost per balloon, x is the amount of balloons, and b as the service fee; so we can set the equation up:
y = (4.50)x + 12
And we can further plug in the total cost to find the number of balloons purchased for the party:
79.50 = (4.50)x + 12
Now we can solve for x (number of balloons):
67.50 = (4.50)x
x = 15
The total number of balloons purchased for the party is 15.
Answer:
<em>99.93%</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Probability of Independent Events</u>
Given the probability of success of each detector is 0.84 independently of the others, their combined success/failure probability can be computed with the product rule.
We can calculate the required probability by using the binomial distribution, but it's easier to calculate the probability of the negated event an subtract from 1.
We want to know the probability that a least one of the 4 systems detects the occurrence of theft. That probability is the sum of the probabilities that one of them, two of them, three of them or all of them succeed. The negated event is that NONE of them actually detects the theft. Being p the individual probability of success, p=0.84. Being q the probability of failure, q=0.16.
The probability that none of the systems detect the theft is

Thus, the probability that at least one of the systems detect the theft is

That means a 99.93%
Answer:
240
Step-by-step explanation:
The length is 20 and the width is 12 so you just multiply 20 and 12 together which is 240
From the statements given in the problem, we can say
that:
Final Score = (total of the remaining scores) * degree of
difficulty * 0.6
Therefore:
97.2 = (total of the remaining scores) * 4.0 * 0.6
total of the remaining scores = 40.5
Therefore the judges could have scored which has a total
of 40.5
Answer:
r=3
