An office manager buys 2 office chairs and 4 file cabinets for $380. Next year she buys 4 office chairs and 6 file cabinets for $660. What is the cost of each office chair, c? What is the cost of each file cabinet, f? Explain how you fond the cost of each chair and file cabinet.

Answers

Answer:

16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

file cabinet = 50

chair = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

x = chair

y = file cabinet

1st year, solve for x

2x+4y = 380

2x = 380 - 4y

x = 190 - 2y

2nd year

Now substitute x = 190 - 2y in your 2nd year formula

4x+6y = 660

4(190-2y)+6y = 660

760 - 8y + 6y = 660

-2y = -100

y = 50

The cost of the filling cabinet is 50 each

Now use the value for y (50) in your first formula to get x

2x+4y=380

2x+4*50=380

2x=380-200

2x=180

x=90

A town recently dismissed 5 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions. The town had 4 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50. If the dismissed employees were selected at random, what is the probability that no more than 1 employee was over 50

Answers

Answer:

0.7513 = 75.13% probability that no more than 1 employee was over 50

Step-by-step explanation:

The employees are chosen from the sample without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question:

4 + 16 = 20 employees, which means that [tex]N = 20[/tex]

4 over 50, which means that [tex]k = 4[/tex]

5 were dismissed, which means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]

What is the probability that no more than 1 employee was over 50?

Probability of at most one over 50, which is:

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = h(0,20,5,4) = \frac{C_{4,0}*C_{16,5}}{C_{20,5}} = 0.2817[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = h(1,20,5,4) = \frac{C_{4,1}*C_{16,4}}{C_{20,5}} = 0.4696[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.2817 + 0.4696 = 0.7513[/tex]

0.7513 = 75.13% probability that no more than 1 employee was over 50

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Slope intercept form: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)

1) Determine the slope (m)

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] where two points that lie on the line are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Plug the given points (-4,3) and (6,8) into the equation

[tex]m=\frac{8-3}{6-(-4)}\\m=\frac{8-3}{6+4}\\m=\frac{5}{10}\\m=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the line is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]. Plug this into [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] :

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+b[/tex]

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+b[/tex]

Plug in one of the given points and solve for b

[tex]8=\frac{1}{2}(6)+b\\8=3+b[/tex]

Subtract 3 from both sides to isolate b

[tex]8-3=3+b-3\\5=b[/tex]

Therefore, the y-intercept is 5. Plug this back into [tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+b[/tex]:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I suspect we don't see the full information for the problem here.

all listed 3 methods are typically used to prove that triangles are congruent (= when turned to have the same orientation, they would simply cover each other completely - no overhanging parts from either triangle).

I guess there is a diagram with 2 triangles and what is known about them.

and since we cannot see them, we cannot tell you which method would apply here.

just remember

SSS means all 3 sides of one triangle are exactly the same as the 3 sides of the other triangle. if you know the lengths of all 3 sides, there is only one triangle you can create. you can only orient it differently.

SAS means two sides and the enclosed angle are the same. again, only one triangle can be created with that information.

ASA means one side and the 2 angles at the end points of that side are known. again, only one triangle can be created with that information.

Step-by-step explanation:

On Friday Evelyn sold 9 dresses and 20 pairs of pants. On Saturday she sold twice as many dresses and 10 more pants than Friday. How many dresses did Evelyn sell on Friday and Saturday?

Answers

Answer: 27 Dresses and 50 Pants

Step-by-step explanation:

If she sold 9 pairs of pants and

9 x 2 = 18

18 + 9 = 27

20 + 10 = 30

30 + 20 = 50

Evelyn sold 9 dresses and 20 pairs of pants on Friday, and on Saturday, she sold 18 dresses and 30 pairs of pants.

Evelyn's sales of dresses and pants over two days, Friday and Saturday. We'll use some mathematical expressions and reasoning to find out how many dresses Evelyn sold on each day.

Let's start by assigning some variables to represent the number of dresses and pants Evelyn sold on Friday and Saturday. We'll use "F" for Friday and "S" for Saturday. So, let [tex]D_F[/tex] be the number of dresses sold on Friday, [tex]D_S[/tex] be the number of dresses sold on Saturday, [tex]P_F[/tex] be the number of pants sold on Friday, and [tex]P_S[/tex] be the number of pants sold on Saturday.

According to the problem, on Friday, Evelyn sold 9 dresses, which can be expressed as:

[tex]D_F[/tex] = 9

She also sold 20 pairs of pants on Friday:

[tex]P_F[/tex] = 20

Now, let's move on to Saturday's sales. It says she sold twice as many dresses as Friday, which means the number of dresses on Saturday is double that of Friday's sales:

[tex]D_S = 2 * D_F[/tex]

Additionally, she sold 10 more pairs of pants on Saturday compared to Friday:

[tex]P_S = P_F + 10[/tex]

We already know that [tex]D_F = 9[/tex], so we can find the number of dresses sold on Saturday by substituting this value into the equation for [tex]D_S[/tex]:

[tex]D_S = 2 * 9 = 18[/tex]

Next, we'll calculate the number of pants sold on Saturday using the given information. Since [tex]P_F = 20[/tex], we can find [tex]P_S[/tex]:

[tex]P_S = 20 + 10 = 30[/tex]

So, to summarize, Evelyn sold 9 dresses and 20 pairs of pants on Friday, and on Saturday, she sold 18 dresses and 30 pairs of pants.

Answer C

The correct answer is option (C).

P(A ∪ B) = 0.6

Formula to find P(A ∪ B):

If A, B are two different events then P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)

We have been given, P(A) = 0.4, P(B) = 0.3

From given Venn diagram,

P(A ∩ B) = 0.10

Now, P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)

⇒ P(A U B) = 0.4 + 0.3 - 0.10

⇒ P(A ∪ B) = 0.6

Answer:

The regression equation is a prediction model which is generated for a given independent, x and dependent, y variable. The regression model is usually ideal when both the dependent and independent variables are numerical. The regression equation cannot be generated if either the x or y value is non-numeric. In such situation, classification models may be better suited for such cases especially if there is no efficient method of converting the non-numeric column into a numeric variable.

A movie theater has a seating capacity of 283. The theater charges $5.00 for children, $7.00 for students, and $12.00 of adults. There are half as many adults as there are children. If the total ticket sales was $ 2060 on a sold out night, how many children, students, and adults attended

Answers

Answer: adults = 79

children = 158

student = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = adults

Let c = children

Let s = student

From the information given,

a + c + s = 283 ....... i

c/a = 2, c = 2a ....... ii

5c + 7s + 12a = 2060 ...... iii

Put the value of c = 2a into equation i

a + c + s = 283

a + 2a + s = 283

3a + s = 283

s = 283 - 3a

Note that c = 2a

From equation iii

5c + 7s + 12a = 2060

5(2a) + 7(283 - 3a) + 12a = 2060

10a + 1981 - 21a + 12a = 2060

10a + 12a - 21a = 2060 - 1981

a = 79

Note c = 2a

c = 2 × 79 = 158

Since a + c + s = 283

79 + 158 + s = 283

s = 283 - 237

s = 46

adults = 79

children = 158

student = 46

What is the sum of the first 7 terms of the geometric series:

Answers

Answer:

-15.875

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can sum up the first 5 terms.

-8 + (-4) = -12

-12 + (-2) = -14

-14 + (-1) = -15

-15 + (-1/2) = -15.5

Next, we can find a pattern in the data. We can tell that the next number is one half of the current number. For example, -4 is one half of -8. To find the next number, we simply multiply our current number by one half. Thus, the sixth number is -1/4 and the seventh is -1/8. Adding these to our current total, we have

-15.5 - 1/4 = -15.75

-15.5 - 1/8 = -15.875 as our answer
