Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of pigs with John = x

Number of pigs with Taylor = x - 7

Number of pigs with Mark = 2x + 6

Total pigs = 459

x + x - 7 + 2x + 6 = 459

x+ x + 2x - 7 + 6 = 459

4x - 1 = 459

     4x = 459 + 1

      4x = 460

        x = 460/4

         x = 115

Number of pigs with John = 115

Number of pigs with Taylor = 115 - 7 = 108

Number of pigs with Mark = 2*115 + 6 = 230 + 6 = 236

At a production process, the produced items are tested for defects. A defective unit is classified as such with probability 0.9,
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

We use Baye's theorem:  P(A)P(B|A) = P(B)P(A|B)

with (A) being defective and

(B) marked as defective

we have to find P(B) = P(A).P(B|A) + P(¬A)P(B|¬A). .......eq(2)

Since  P(A) = 0.1 and P(B|A)=0.9,

P(¬A) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9

and

P(B|A¬) = 1 - P(¬B|¬A) = 1 - 0.85 = 0.15

put these values in eq(2)

P(B) = (0.1 × 0.9) + (0.9 × 0.15)

       = 0.225 put this in eq(1) and solve for P(B)

P(B) = 0.4

The town library is raising money by selling old books for $2 each.Which equation can be used to find the amount of money raised
alexgriva [62]
Y=2x
y is the amount of money made from the sold books
x is the number of books that are sold (it is x because you don't know how many will be sold, so you have to account for all possibilities)
2x is because every book is sold for 2 dollars, so that mean x is multiplied by 2 to get y

What does x equal in 7+2/5x=-5
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

x = -30

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 7 from both sides ( 7+2/5x -7, -5-7 )

simplify ( 2/5x = 12 )

multiply both sides by 5 ( 2/5x times 5 = 5 (-12) )

simplify ( 2x = -60 )

divide both sides by 2 ( 2x / 2, -60 / 2 )

x = -30
