60 more than nine times a number is the same as two less than 10 times the number what is the number
PIT_PIT [12445]

Let's tackle your equation step-by-step.

9x+60=10x−2

Step 1: Subtract 10x from each side.

9x+60−10x=10x−2−10x

−x+60=−2

Step 2: Subtract 60 from each side.

−x+60−60=−2−60

−x=−62

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

−x /−1 = −62 /−1

x=62

A box has 14 camera of which 6 are refurbished and 8 are new. If four of these 14 cameras are selected at random without replace
Leona [12618]

Answer:

160/1001, 175/1001

Step-by-step explanation:

i) We calculate:

₈C₁ methods to select 1 new camera from a selection of 8

₆C₃ methods to select 3 refurbished cameras from a selection of 8

₁₄C₄ methods to select 4 cameras from the total of 14 cameras

The probability formula is:

P = ₈C₁ ₆C₃ / ₁₄C₄

P = 8×20 / 1001

P = 160 / 1001

P ≈ 0.160

ii) For at most one new camera, it means we want either one new camera or none at all. We've calculated the probability of selecting one new camera already. The probability of not selecting any new camera is equivalent to selecting 4 refurbished cameras:

P = ₆C₄ / ₁₄C₄

P = 15 / 1001

Therefore, the combined probability is:

P = 160/1001 + 15/1001

P = 175/1001

P ≈ 0.175

Devon purchased a new car valued at $16,000 that depreciated continuously at a rate of 35%. Its current value is $2,000. The equ
Leona [12618]

Initial cost = 16000
depreciation rate = 35%
remaining value = 2000
depreciation over one year = 16000*35% = 5600
5600*2 = 11200 + 5600*6\12 = 2000
The car is aged 2.5 years, accounting for two full years and an additional half year of depreciation.
