Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of cakes baked by Calvin and Susie = 3 : 7

Cakes baked by Calvin = 3x

Cakes baked by Susie = 7x

Cakes baked by Calvin = Cakes baked by Susie - 60

3x = 7x - 60

7x - 60 = 3x

7x        = 3x  + 60

7x - 3x = 60

      4x  = 60

        x = 60/4

x = 15

Cakes baked by Calvin = 3*15 = 45

Cakes baked by Susie = 7 *15 = 105

Total cakes baked = 45 + 105 = 150

They both baked 150 cakes altogether.

gulaghasi [49]

Each tweet would cost between 1 and 140 pennies you can write that as an inequality [1 ≤ x ≤ 140] Since you can't tweet 0 characters or above 140.

if you want to change it to pounds divide by 100.

A) 1 ≤ x ≤ 140

B) Each character costs a penny, you can't tweet less than 1 character or above 140.

An advertising agency notices that approximately 1 in 50 potential buyers of a product sees a given magazine ad, and 1 in 8 sees
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Probability = 0.12025

Step-by-step explanation:

P (Am) = 1/50 = 0.02       {Magazine ad}

P (At) = 1/8 = 0.125         {Television ad}

P (Am ∩ At ) = 1/100 = 0.01      {Both ads}

P (Am U At) = P (Am) + P (At) - P (Am ∩ At )

= 0.02 + 0.125 - 0.01

P (Am U At)  = 0.135       {Person sees either ad}

P (Am' ∩ At') = 1 - P (Am U At)

P (Am' ∩ At')  = 1 - 0.135 = 0.865      {Person sees none ad}

Prob (Purchase) = Prob (Purchase with ad) + Prob (purchase without ad)

P (P/ A) = 1/4 = 0.25 , P (P / A') = 1/10 = 0.1

P (P) = (0.25) (0.135) + (0.1) (0.865)

= 0.03375 + 0.0865

0.12025

A three-bedroom house in North Augusta sold for $190,000. If housing prices are expected to increase 1.8% annually in that town,
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

we know that the initial price of the house is $190,000.

We also know that the expected increase is 1.8%, this means that the year zero we have no increase; the price is $190,000.

one year after we have an increase of the 1.8% (or 0.018 in decimal form), this means that the new price is:

$190,000 + $190,000*0.018 = $190,000*(1.018)

another year after, we have:

$190,000*(1.018)*(1.018) = $190,000*(1.018)^2

and etc

The function that models the price as a function of the years, represented as y, is:

P(y) = $190,000*(1.018)^y

If we want to know the price in 5 years, we need to replace y = 5 in the equation:

p(5) = $190,000*(1.018)^5 = $207,726.80

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps you
