The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost $3500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional $150 for each ton of sugar transported. Let C represent the total cost (in dollars), and let S represent the amount of sugar (in tons) transported. Write an equation relating C to S. Then use this equation to find the total cost to transport 17 tons of sugar.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C = 150S + 3,500.

$6,050.

Step-by-step explanation:

It costs $3,500 to rent the trucks, so your constant/y-intercept will be $3,500.

It will cost $150 for every ton of sugar, so your slope will be $150.

You then have your equation:

C = 150S + 3,500.

If you were to transport 17 tons of sugar...

C = 150 * 17 + 3,500

C = 2,550 + 3,500

C = $6,050.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

C = $6050

Equation:

To write the equation, we have to remember that C is the total cost, so that means the equation should end in "= C". S is the amount of sugar, so the equation would look something like this:

[tex]3500+150(S)=C[/tex]

3500 is at the beginning since that is the cost for the trucks, and each ton of sugar costs $150, and that would get multiplied by S amount of sugar, to get the total cost, C.

Solving the equation

To solve the equation when S = 17, we simply have to plug in S as 17 into our equation we wrote above.

[tex]3500+150(17)=C[/tex]

150 * 17 is 2550, and 3500 + 2550 is 6050, which is C.

C = $6050

All sides of the building shown above meet at right angles. If three of the sides measure 2 meters, 7 meters, and 11 meters as shown, then what is the perimeter of the building in meters?

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter= 40 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok

We are asked to look for the perimeter.

We have some clue given.

All at right angle and some sides are given it's full length.

We have the bae to be 11 unit

The height to be 7 unit.

What this mean is that taking either the base or the height should sum up to either 11 or 7 respectively.

Let's go for the other side of the height.

Let's take all the vertical height and sum it up to 7 because the right side is equal to 7.

So we have 7+7+11

But it's not complete yet.

We are given a dimension 2.

And the 2 is in two places so it's total 2*2= 4

The two is for a small base .

The base is actually an extra to the 11 of the other base.

So summing up

We have 2*11 + 2*7 + 2*2

Perimeter= 22+14+4

Perimeter= 40 units

Luke is organising a camping trip for the youth club. He is looking at the temperature and rainfall charts for Brighton and Newquay. What is the probability of it raining in July in Brighton? Give your answer as a fraction.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 15.6/31 or 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The data in the question is sufficient to find an answer for it.

1. I look at the temperature and rainfall chart for Brighton, United Kingdom.

2. Check for rainy season and dry season.

3. The rainy season lasts approximately 5 months while the dry season (which still has some rainfall) lasts approximately 7 months. All together, 12 months of the calendar year.

4. July happens to fall within the dry season. The temperature and rainfall statistics are observed.

The number of rainfall days is 15.6 and we know there are 31 days in July.

If the approximate number of days it rains in Brighton, in July, is 15.6 then the probability of rainfall in the month is 15.6/31 which is = 0.503 or 0.5

Therefore, there's a 50% chance of having rainfall in Brighton, on any day in the month of July.

In fraction, 0.5 = 1/2

Plz help answer a - d 1. Miguel is playing a game in which a box contains four chips with numbers written on them two of the chips have the number one one chip has the number three and the other chip has the number 5 Miguel must choose to chips if both chips have the same number he wants to dollars if the two chipsy chooses have different numbers he loses $1 (-$1) Look at pictures for the questions

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Miguel has four chips, two have the number "1", one has the number "3" and the other has the number "5"

If the experiment is "choosing two chips and looking at their numbers" there are the following possible outcomes:

S= {(1,1)(1,3)(1,5)(3,1)(5,1)(3,5)(5,3)}

The sample space for the experiment has 7 possible combinations.

a)

Be X: the amount of money Miguel will receive or owe.

If two chips with the same number are chosen he will receive $2

If the chips have different number he will owe $1

Looking at the possible outcomes listed above, out of the 7, in only one he will select the same number (1,1)

So the probability of him receiving $2 will be 1/7

Now out of the 7 possible outcomes, 6 will make Miguel owe $1, so you can calculate its probability as: 6/7

  xi  | $2 | -$1

P(xi) | 1/7 | 6/7

b)

To calculate the expected value or mean you have to use the following formula:

[tex]\frac{}{X}[/tex]= ∑[xi*P(xi)]= (2*1/7)(-1*6/7)= -4/7= $-0.57

c)

The expected value is $-0.57, meaning that Miguel can expect to owe $0.57 at the end of the game.

d)

To make the game fair you have to increase the probability of obtaining two chips with the same number. Any probability close to 50% will make the game easier. For example if you change the experiment so that for earning $2 the probability is 4/7 and for owing $1 the probability is 3/7, the expected earnings will be:

(2*4/7)+(-1*3/7)= $0.71

A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 21. What is the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or an 8? Round to nearest thousandth

Answers

Answer: 0.476

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A = Event of choosing an even number ball.

B = Event of choosing an 8 .

Given, A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 21.

Sample space: S= {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,...., 21}

n(S) = 21

Then, A= {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)}

i.e. n(A)= 10

B= {8}

n(B) = 1

A∪B = {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)} = A

n(A∪B)=10

Now, the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or an 8 is

[tex]P(A\cup B)=\dfrac{n(A\cup B)}{n(S)}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{10}{21}\approx0.476[/tex]

Hence, the required probability =0.476

Which of the following points is a solution of the inequality y < - lxl?

A. (1, -2)
B. (1, -1)
C. (1, 0)​

Answers

Answer:

A. (1, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can substitute the variables of x and y into the inequality of [tex]y < -|x|[/tex].

Let's start with A, -2 being y and 1 being x.

[tex]-2 < - |1|[/tex]

The absolute value of 1 is 1, and negating that gets us -1.

[tex]-2 < -1[/tex]

Indeed, -2 is less than -1! So A is a solution to the inequality.

Let's test the rest of them, just in case.

For B:

[tex]-1 < -|1|[/tex]

Absolute value of 1 is 1, negating it is -1.

[tex]-1<-1[/tex]

-1 is EQUAL to -1, not less than it, so is not a solution to the inequality.

Let's try C.

[tex]0 < -|1|[/tex]

Absolute value of 1 is 1, negating it is -1.

[tex]0 < -1[/tex]

0 is GREATER than -1, so that is not a solution to the inequality.

B. The sample is unusual if the claim is true. The sample is unusual if the claim is false. Therefore, there is sufficient evidence to support the claim.
C. The sample is not unusual if the claim is true. The sample is not unusual if the claim is false. Therefore, there is sufficient evidence to support the claim.
D. The sample is not unusual if the claim is true. The sample is not unusual if the claim is false. Therefore, there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is (D).

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we need to test whether the  mean pulse rate (in beats per minute) of students in a large math class is greater than 71.

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:

H₀: The mean pulse rate of students in a large math class is not greater than 71, i.e. μ ≤ 71.

Hₐ: The mean pulse rate of students in a large math class is greater than 71, i.e. μ > 71.

It is provided that the sample mean pulse rate, of a simple random sample of the students is 71.7.

The sample mean is not very different from the population mean.

So, it cannot be said in confidence that the sample is unusual.

Thus, the correct option is (D).

"The sample is not unusual if the claim is true. The sample is not unusual if the claim is false. Therefore, there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim."
