Response:
1/6
Detailed explanation:
Let
c -----> the count of cola bottles chosen by Dan
s -----> the count of smarties selected by Dan
m -----> the count of marshmallows selected by Dan
we have
c=3s -----> A equation
m=2s -----> B equation
we understand that
To determine the fraction of the sweet bag that consists of smarties, we must divide the number of smarties by the total amount of sweets
The overall number of sweets is calculated as
(c+s+m)
substituting equations A and B into the total sweets
(3s+s+2s) =6s
Calculate the fraction
s/6s
Reduce it
1/6
At a wage of 8.75 per hour, total earnings for 40 hours would be 350. Calculate overtime at 8.75 times 1.5 which equals 13.13. Then, multiply 13.13 by 12 to get $158. So the total is 350 + 158 = 508, likely around 480 after taxes for the US.
To address this issue, we will utilize the formula for determining the distance from a point to a line.
The formula is:
distance = | a x + b y + c | / sqrt (a^2 + b^2)
We have the line equation:
y = 2 x + 4
Rearranging it results in:
<span>y – 2 x – 4 = 0 -->
a = -2, b = 1, c = -4</span>
The coordinates given are:
(-4, 11) = (x, y)
Substituting into the distance formula:
distance = | -2 * -4 + 1 * 11 + -4 | / sqrt [(- 2)^2 + (1)^2]
distance = 15 / sqrt (5)
distance ≈ 6.7
<span>Thus, the tree is approximately 6.7 ft from the zip line.</span>
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
