There are 2 boys for every 3 girls in Sappy Sunshine Childcare center. If there are a total of 171 girls at the center, how many boys are there? (do not include units in your answer, just the number)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

114 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

For each 2 boys, there are 3 girls on the center. So, how many boys will be there when there are 171 girls?

2 boys - 3 girls

x boys - 171 girls

[tex]3x = 2*171[/tex]

Simplifying both sides by 3

[tex]x = 2*57 = 114[/tex]

There are 114 boys there

You decide to get an estimate on the cost of repairs for the green food truck
The mechanic explains that the cost of the repairs comes out to be about
$9,500. This price includes the cost of labor and the cost of the parts needed
to do the repairs. If labor costs are 3/5 the cost of the parts, how much
would you save by doing the repairs yourself and just purchasing the parts?

Answers

Answer:

$3562.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If the cost ratio is ...

 labor : parts = 3/5 : 1 = 3 : 5

then the ratio of labor to the whole cost is ...

 labor : total = 3 : (3+5) = 3 : 8

The amount saved by not paying for labor is ...

 (3/8) × $9500 = $3562.50 . . . labor charge

The general manager, marketing director, and 3 other employees of Company A are hosting a visit by the vice president and 2 other employees of Company B. The eight people line up in a random order to take a photo. Every way of lining up the people is equally likely.
(a) What is the probability that the general manager is next to the vice president?
(b) What is the probability that the marketing director is in the leftmost position?
(c) Determine whether the two events are independent. Prove your answer by showing that one of the conditions for independence is either true or false.

Answers

Solution :

Let the three places be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

a). Number of the cases when a general manager is the next to a vice president is equal to 7 and the these 2 can be arranged in 21 ways. So the total number of ways = 7 x 2

                  = 14

[(1,2)(2,1) (2,3)(3,2) (3,4)(4,3) (4,5)(5,4) (5,6)(6,5) (6,7)(7,8) (8,7)(7,6)]

Therefore the required probability is

  [tex]$=\frac{14}{8!}$[/tex]

 = [tex]$\frac{14}{40320} = 0.000347$[/tex]

b). The probability that the marketing director to be placed in the leftmost position is

   [tex]$=\frac{7!}{8!}$[/tex]

  [tex]$=\frac{1}{8} = 0.125$[/tex]

c). The two events are not independent because

   [tex]$P(A \cap B) \neq P(A) \times P(B)$[/tex]

  [tex]$\frac{12}{8!} \neq \frac{14}{8!} \times \frac{1}{8}$[/tex]

where A is the case a and B is the case b.

(a) The possibility of the general manager is next to the vice president is [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex].

(b) The possibility of the marketing director is in the leftmost position is [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex].

(c) So, the two events are dependent on each other.

Probability:

Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event to occur. Many events cannot be predicted with total certainty. We can predict only the chance of an event to occur i.e. how likely they are to happen, using it. The probability of all the events in a sample space adds up to 1.

Total people in company A and company B is [tex]=8[/tex]

Overall ways in which these [tex]8[/tex] people can be lined up[tex]=8![/tex]

                                                                                        [tex]=40320[/tex]

(a) The probability that the general manager is next to the vice president is[tex]=P(A)[/tex]

Now, we can combine the general manager and vice president as one, then the total people in both the company will become [tex]7[/tex].

by arranging these [tex]7[/tex] people in one line [tex]=7![/tex]

                                                                [tex]=5040[/tex]

Again, combine the general manager and vice president in one line[tex]=2![/tex]

                                                                                                                [tex]=2[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]P(A)=\frac{5040\times 2}{40320}[/tex]

                          [tex]=\frac{10080}{40320}[/tex]

[tex]P(A)=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

(b) The probability that the marketing director is in the leftmost position is[tex]=P(B)[/tex]

Now, fixing the position of marketing director in the leftmost.

arranging the [tex]7[/tex] other people in [tex]7![/tex] ways [tex]=5040[/tex]

Therefore,[tex]P(B)=\frac{5040}{40320}[/tex]

                          [tex]=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

[tex]P(B)=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

(c) Assuming event B already occurred which means that the position of marketing director is already fixed in the leftmost position.

Now, trying to find out the probability of the general manager next to the vice president is event A. it comes different because we are not allowed to arrange rest [tex]7[/tex] people, we have to fix the position of one person that causes the repetition of probability.

So, the two events are dependent on each other.

I will give brainiest to whoever answers correctly !!

Answers

Answer:

A = $2937.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Total gifts and scholarships = $900 + $250 + $300 + $1400 = $2850

Therefore, Principal = $2850

Time in years = 36 months/ 12 months = 3 years

Interest = 1% = 1/100 = 0.01

n = 360

To find the future value, we would use the compound interest formula;

[tex] A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Where;

A is the future value. P is the principal or starting amount. r is annual interest rate. n is the number of times the interest is compounded in a year. t is the number of years for the compound interest.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] A = 2850(1 + \frac{0.01}{360})^{360*3}[/tex]

[tex] A = 2850(1 + 0.000028)^{1080}[/tex]

[tex] A = 2850(1.000028)^{1080}[/tex]

[tex] A = 2850(1.0307)[/tex]

A = $2937.5

Therefore, the graduate will have $2937.5 when he cashes in the CD.

Hello!

[tex]\large\boxed{\frac{\pi }{4} < x < \frac{5\pi }{4}}[/tex]

To begin, we can solve the inequality:

sin(x) > cos(x)

Divide both sides by cos(x):

sin(x) / cos(x) > 1

tan(x) > 1

x > π/4

However, we can also solve it the other way to produce the end to the interval:

sin(x) > cos(x)

1 > cot(x)

x < 5π/4

Therefore, sin(x) > cos(x) on the interval π/4 < x < 5π/4.

Answer:

π/4 < x < 5π/4.

Jayda has a vegetable garden. 2/3 of the garden is made up of tomato plants. 4/5 of the tomato plants are beefsteak tomatoes. What portion of the garden is made up of beef steak tomatoes?​

Answers

Answer:

8/15 of Jayda's vegetable garden are beefsteak tomatoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Jayda has a vegetable garden, of which 2/3 are tomato plants, and of these tomato plants 4/5 are beefsteak tomatoes, to determine the portion of the garden that is made up of beefsteak tomatoes the following must be done mathematical reasoning:

The common least multiple of 3 and 5 is 15, so 2/3 can be re-categorized as 10/15. In turn, of those 10, 4/5 are beefsteak tomatoes, which can be re-categorized as 8/10.

Therefore, 8/15 of Jayda's vegetable garden are beefsteak tomatoes.

Solve the system of equation

Answers

Answer:

( 4 , 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

when canceling out the y values and then adding the two functions together you get

7y = 7

dividing by seven you get y = 1

when plugging y = 1 into the first quation you get

5 - 4x = -7

subtract 5 from both sides

-4x = -12

divide both sides by negetive four

x = 3

then with plugging in y = 1 for the second equation you get

2 + 4x = 14

subtract 2 from both sides

4x = 12

divide both sides by 4

x = 3

you then check your answers and get the point of (4, 1) for your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator quickly tells you the point of intersection.

You can equate the y-values and solve for x.

  3x +5 = -2x +10

  5x = 5 . . . . . . . . . add 2x-5

  x = 1 . . . . . . . divide by 5

  3·1 +5 = y = 8 . . . . substitute for x in the first equation

Answers

Answer:

x = 15.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = 35°

Opposite side to reference angle = 9

hypotenuse = x

Find x using trigonometric ratio.

Thus,

Sin 35 = 9/x

Multiply both sides by x

x*sin 35 = 9

Divide both sides by sin 35

x = 9/sin 35

x = 15.69 (nearest hundredth)

if you roll a pair of dice, what is the probability that both are 3's or that the sum is more than 8

Answers

Answer:

11/36

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 36 possible outcomes when rolling a pair of dice.

Only 1 outcome gets both 3's. (3 3)

For the sum to be greater than 8, there are 10 outcomes.

(3 6) (4 5) (4 6) (5 4) (5 5) (5 6) (6 3) (6 4) (6 5) (6 6)

The probability is therefore (1+10)/36=11/36.
