A game is biased such that the choices A-J have the following probabilities of winning: A 5% B 10% C 15% D 5% E 5% F 25% G 10% H 10% I 10% J 5% If you chose the letters D and H for 20 turns, how many times are you most likely to win? 1 2 3 4 5

Answers

Answer 1

Since we have chosen 2 letters, then the total probability of winning the game is the sum of the probabilities of each letter. Therefore:

Total probability of winning = Probability of D + Probability of H

Total probability of winning = 5% + 10%

Total probability of winning = 15%

Since we are playing the game for 20 turns, therefore out of those 20 games, we will win 15% of the time. So:   

15% = 0.15

Winning times = 0.15 * 20

Winning times = 3

 

Therefore we have a chance or probability to win at least 3 games out of 20 turns.

Evaluate the limit using the appropriate Limit Law(s). (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) lim t → −2 t4 − 3 2t2 − 3t + 3

Answers

Final answer:

To evaluate the limit of the given function, substitute the value that t is approaching into the expression. In this case, t is approaching -2. Plugging -2 into the function, we get 0.7647.

Explanation:

To evaluate the limit of the given function, we can substitute the value that t is approaching into the expression. In this case, t is approaching -2. Plugging -2 into the function, we get:

lim t → -2 t^4 - 3 / 2t^2 - 3t + 3 = (-2)^4 - 3 / 2(-2)^2 - 3(-2) + 3 = 16 - 3 / 8 + 6 + 3 = 13 / 17 = 0.7647

Therefore, the limit is approximately 0.7647.

$5.50 markup 75% what is the selling prize

Answers

To calculate the selling price with a 75% markup on a $5.50 item, multiply the original cost by 0.75 to find the markup amount and then add it to the original cost. The final selling price is $9.63.

Calculating the Selling Price with a Markup

To determine the selling price of an item with a 75% markup, follow these steps:

Determine the original cost of the item, which is $5.50 in this case.Calculate the markup amount by multiplying the original cost by the markup percentage. Express the percentage as a decimal:
Markup Amount = Original Cost × Markup Percentage
Markup Amount = $5.50 × 0.75 = $4.125Add the markup amount to the original cost to get the selling price:
Selling Price = Original Cost + Markup Amount
Selling Price = $5.50 + $4.125 = $9.625Optionally, round the selling price to two decimal places (if necessary):
Selling Price ≈ $9.63

Therefore, the selling price for the item with a 75% markup on an original cost of $5.50 is $9.63.

I just need the answers for this.im really confused

Answers

Question a)

We have weekly saving of $2.50, the target amount of $85.98 and the amount carried forward from birthday present of $35, We want to work out the number of weeks we need to save to buy season pass

By working backwards, the steps are
[tex]85.98-35=50.98[/tex] ⇒ We subtract the birthday money from the season-pass fee
[tex]50.98/2.50 = 20.392[/tex] ≈ 21 Weeks ⇒ We divide by the amount we save every week

The answer is rounded up to 21 weeks

Question b)

Let the number of weeks be '[tex]x[/tex]' and the season-pass fee be '[tex]y[/tex]'

The equation that represents the context is
[tex]y=35+25x[/tex] 

In words: To achieve the value [tex]y[/tex] we need to multiply [tex]x[/tex] by $2.50 (saving) and add $35 (birthday money) 

We know that [tex]y=85.98[/tex] as this is the amount we aim to achieve by saving $2.50 per week. Substituting this into the equation we formed earlier we have

[tex]85.98=35+2.5x[/tex] ⇒ Subtract 35 from both sides
[tex]85.98-35=35-35+2.5x[/tex]
[tex]50.98=2.5x[/tex] ⇒ Divide both sides by 2.5
[tex] \frac{50.98}{2.5}= \frac{2.5x}{2.5} [/tex]
[tex]x=20.392[/tex] ≈ 21

We round the answer to 21 weeks. We achieve the same answer with part a)

Question c)

This time, we aim to save $85.98 by the end of 11th week. We might need to adjust the amount we save per week. We will use the same equation we form in part b) but this time we will use the variable [tex]'s'[/tex] to represent the amount of weekly saving.

[tex]y=35+11s[/tex] ⇒ where [tex]y[/tex] is the season pass fee, '35' is the birthday money, '11' is the number of weeks, and [tex]'s'[/tex] is the amount of saving

We have [tex]y=85.98[/tex]

[tex]85.98=35+11s[/tex]
[tex]85.98-35=11s[/tex]
[tex]50.98=11s[/tex]
[tex]s= \frac{50.98}{11}=4.6345 [/tex] ≈ 5

The answer is $5 to be saved for 11 weeks to achieve $85.98
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Use the same equation to work out the number of weeks we need to save $2.50 per week if we have to pay the higher price of season pass fee of $120.98

[tex]y=35+2.50x[/tex]
[tex]120.98=35+2.5x[/tex]
[tex]120.98-35=2.5x[/tex]
[tex]85.98=2.5x[/tex]
[tex]x= \frac{85.98}{2.5}=34.392 [/tex]≈ 35 weeks

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If we can start saving as early as possible, then 21 weeks of $2.50/week would work for the cheaper price of season-fee and we don't need to adjust the budget. However, if we still want to aim for $85.98 season pass fee, but only have fewer weeks to save, then adjusting budget is necessary. We can perhaps decide not to go bowling every week so we can use the budget for saving instead, or we can alternate between bowling and movie every week. 

Question d)

Using the original budget, we work out a third of $2.50 which is 2.5÷3 = 0.83
It means we have 2.5-0.83 = 1.6 left to save weekly. 

Using the same equation with part b)
[tex]y=35+1.6x[/tex] ⇒ Notice that we adjust the constant 2.5 to 1.6
[tex]85.98 = 35+1.6x[/tex] ⇒ We still aim to save for the cheapest season-pass
[tex]85.98-35=1.6x[/tex]
[tex]50.98=1.6x[/tex]
[tex]x= \frac{50.98}{1.6}=31.8625 [/tex] ≈ 32 weeks

We will have 32 weeks × $0.83 = $26.56 to buy gift for Mother.

Question e)

From information from part a) to part d), there are many different ways to adjust the budget.

At the movie theatre, child admission is $6.20 and adult admission is $9.80 . On Monday, twice as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold, for a total sales of $593.40 . How many child tickets were sold that day?

Answers

Let a and c be the number of adult and children tickets sold respectively.

a=2c

6.2c+9.8a=593.4, using a from above in this equation gives you:

6.2c+9.8(2c)=593.4  perform indicated multiplication on left side

6.2c+19.6c=593.4  combine like terms on left side

25.8c=593.4  divide both sides by 25.8

c=23

So 23 child tickers were sold that day.

Given that,
Pick 3 digits (0-9) at random without replacement, and write them in the order picked. what is the probability that you have written the first 3 digits of your phone number? assume there are no repeats of digits in your phone number is to be evaluated.

What is probability?

Probability can be defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of events.

Here,
From 0 to 9 we have 10 numbers,
For the number to be picked,
There must be no repetition,
So the number of ways to 1 pick 1st number is 10,
The number of ways to pick 2nd number is 9
The number of ways to pick 3rd number is 8
Total number of ways = 10 + 9 + 8 = 27
Now probability, that this three-digit  would be a mobile number,

= 1 / 27
= 0.037

Thus, the required probability of the numbers picked of the first three digits of the mobile number is 0.037.

Part B: How many birds are in the aviary after 12 months? How many trees are in the aviary after the same number of months? (2 points)

Part C: After approximately how many months is the number of birds and the number of trees the same? Justify your answer mathematically. (4 points)

Answers

Part A

months = m

 since birds decrease by 7%, there will be 93% left. 93% = 0.93
birds: 975 x 0.93^m
trees: 350 - 7m


Part B
birds: 975 x 0.93^12 = 408
trees: 350-7(12) = 266


Part C

350 - 7m = 0.93^m(975)

We have intersection points at approximately 22.21 and 44.4781. round off to whole numbers, we have 22 and 44 months.

if z=2.5, x=102 and x=100, what is s?

Answers

I believe the problem ask for s which is the standard deviation. We must recall that the formula for z statistic is stated as:

z = (x – x over bar) / s

Where,

z = z statistic = 2.5

x = sample value or sample score = 102

x over bar = the sample mean or sample average  = 100

s = standard deviation = unknown

Rewriting the equation in terms of s:

s = (x – x over bar) / z

Substituting the given values into the equation:

s = (102 – 100) / 2.5

s = 0.8  

Therefore the standard deviation s is 0.8

How many 6-digit numbers can be formed using the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, if repetitions of digits are allowed?

Answers

Final answer:

There can be 900,000 unique 6-digit numbers formed using the digits 0-9 with repetitions allowed, considering the first digit cannot be 0.

Explanation:

Calculating 6-Digit Numbers with Repetitions

The question pertains to the number of unique 6-digit combinations that can be made from the digits 0-9 when repetitions are allowed. Since the first digit of a 6-digit number cannot be 0 (as it would make the number a 5-digit number), there are 9 possibilities for the first digit (1-9). For each of the five remaining positions, all 10 digits (0-9) are possibilities because we are allowing repetitions. Therefore, the total number of combinations is calculated by multiplying the possibilities for each digit place.

The solution is as follows: 9 possibilities for the first digit times 10 possibilities for each of the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth digits.

9 (first digit) * 10 (second digit) * 10 (third digit) * 10 (fourth digit) * 10 (fifth digit) * 10 (sixth digit) = 900,000 unique 6-digit numbers that can be formed.

Find an explicit rule for the nth term of a geometric sequence where the second and fifth terms are 20 and 2500, respectively.

Answers

Given that the 2nd and 5th term of a geometric sequence is 20 and 2500, the formula will be obtained as follows.
The formula for geometric sequence is given by:
nth=ar^(n-1)
where:
a=1st term
r=common ratio
n=nth term
thus the 2nd term is:
20=ar^(2-1)
20=ar......i

the 5th term is:
2500=ar^(5-1)
2500=ar^4.......ii
from i
a=20/r

from ii
a=2500/r^4
therefore:
20/r=2500/r^4
multiplying through by r^4 we get:
20r^3=2500
dividing both sides by 20 we get:
r^3=125
hence;
r=5
substituting the value of r in i we get:
20=ar
20=5a
thus;
a=4
the formula for the sequence will therefore be:
nth=ar^(n-1)
nth=4*5^(n-1)


Answer:

The explicit formula of the geometric sequence is:

                   [tex]a_n=4\times 5^{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula is the expression where the nth term is given in terms of the first term of the sequence.

We know that the explicit formula for a geometric sequence is given by:

       [tex]a_n=(a_1)^{r-1}[/tex]

Here we are given:

The second and fifth terms as: 20 and 2500 respectively.

i.e.

[tex]a_2=20[/tex] and  [tex]a_5=2500[/tex]

i.e.

[tex]ar=20\ and\ ar^4=2500[/tex]

Hence,

[tex]\dfrac{ar}{ar^4}=\dfrac{20}{2500}\\\\\\\dfrac{1}{r^3}=\dfrac{1}{125}\\\\\\(\dfrac{1}{r})^3=(\dfrac{1}{5})^3\\\\\\\dfrac{1}{r}=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\\\r=5[/tex]

Also,

we have:

[tex]ar=20\\\\i.e.\\\\a\times 5=20\\\\i.e.\ a=4[/tex]

Hence, the explicit formula is given by:

         [tex]a_n=4\times 5^{n-1}[/tex]
