Assume that the probability of any newborn baby being a boy is one half and that all births are independent. If a family has three children (no twins), what is the probability of the event that they are all boys?
Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
P(B) = 1/2
Now we are considering that the three children are all boys. This means we are considering that the first is a boy, the second is a boy and the third too is a boy. This brings us to the situation BBB
That is a boy and a boy and another boy. In probability, the word and means we multiply the three.
Hence:
P(BBB) = P(B1) * P(B2) * P(B3) = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8 or 0.125
The probability of a three-child family having all boys, given that each birth is independently a boy with a probability of one half, is 1/8 or 0.125 (12.5%).
Explanation:The subject of your question is based in
probability
, a key concept in mathematics. Specifically, you're asking about the
probability of a family having three boys
, with the probability of any birth resulting in a boy being given as one half. As the question indicates that all births are independent, we're dealing with independent events in probability. The probability of independent events is calculated by multiplying the probabilities of each individual event. In this case, the probability of having a boy is one half (or 0.5), and we have three independent events (the births of the three children). Therefore, the probability of all three children being boys is (1/2) * (1/2) * (1/2), which simplifies to 1/8 or 0.125. So, assuming that all births are equally likely to result in a boy or a girl, the probability of a three-child family having all boys is 0.125, or 12.5%.

A fried chicken franchise finds that the demand equation for its new roast chicken product, "Roasted Rooster," is given by p = 45 / q 1.5
where p is the price (in dollars) per quarter-chicken serving and q is the number of quarter-chicken servings that can be sold per hour at this price.
1) Express q as a function of p.
2) Find the price elasticity of demand when the price is set at $4.00 per serving.
Answer:
1. [tex]q=(\dfrac{45}{p})^{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]
2. [tex]E_d=-\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given demand equation is
[tex]p=\dfrac{45}{q^{1.5}}[/tex]
where p is the price (in dollars) per quarter-chicken serving and q is the number of quarter-chicken servings that can be sold per hour at this price.
Part 1 :
We need to Express q as a function of p.
The given equation can be rewritten as
[tex]q^{1.5}=\dfrac{45}{p}[/tex]
Using the properties of exponent, we get
[tex]q=(\dfrac{45}{p})^{\frac{1}{1.5}}[/tex] [tex][\because x^n=a\Rightarrow x=a^{\frac{1}{n}}][/tex]
[tex]q=(\dfrac{45}{p})^{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]
Therefore, the required equation is [tex]q=(\dfrac{45}{p})^{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex].
Part 2 :
[tex]q=(45)^{\frac{2}{3}}p^{-\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]
Differentiate q with respect to p.
[tex]\dfrac{dq}{dp}=(45)^{\frac{2}{3}}(-\dfrac{2}{3})(p^{-\frac{2}{3}-1}})[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{dq}{dp}=(45)^{\frac{2}{3}}(-\dfrac{2}{3})(p^{-\frac{5}{3}})[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{dq}{dp}=(45)^{\frac{2}{3}}(-\dfrac{2}{3})(\dfrac{1}{p^{\frac{5}{3}}})[/tex]
Formula for price elasticity of demand is
[tex]E_d=\dfrac{dq}{dp}\times \dfrac{p}{q}[/tex]
[tex]E_d=(45)^{\frac{2}{3}}(-\dfrac{2}{3})(\dfrac{1}{p^{\frac{5}{3}}})\times \dfrac{p}{(45)^{\frac{2}{3}}p^{-\frac{2}{3}}}[/tex]
Cancel out common factors.
[tex]E_d=(-\dfrac{2}{3})(\dfrac{1}{p^{\frac{5}{3}}})\times \dfrac{p}{p^{-\frac{2}{3}}}[/tex]
Using the properties of exponents we get
[tex]E_d=-\dfrac{2}{3}(p^{-\frac{5}{3}+1-(-\frac{2}{3})})[/tex]
[tex]E_d=-\dfrac{2}{3}(p^{0})[/tex]
[tex]E_d=-\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]
Therefore, the price elasticity of demand is -2/3.
To address the question, q as a function of p is q = (45/p)^(2/3), and the price elasticity of demand when p is $4 can be found by taking the derivative of q with respect to p and substituting the given values in the elasticity formula.
Explanation:The student has asked to express q as a function of p and to find the price elasticity of demand when the price is set at $4.00 per serving for a new roast chicken product. The given equation is p = 45 / q1.5.
To find q as a function of p, we rearrange the equation: q = (45/p)1/1.5 or q = (45/p)2/3.To find the price elasticity of demand, we use the formula Ed = (dq/dp) × (p/q). First, we calculate the derivative dq/dp of the function q(p), and then substitute p=4 to find Ed at that price.The derivative of q with respect to p is dq/dp = -2/3 × (45/p4/3). Substituting p=4, we get the quantity q = (45/4)2/3. Plugging these values into our elasticity formula gives us the price elasticity of demand at p=$4.00.
In this Circular Flow example the Money Supply is reduced as the Fed ___________ $20 billion of Treasury bonds and bills from/to the banking system..
Answer:
Deduct/subtract
Step-by-step explanation:
Federal Reserve board uses different methods to increase or decrease the currency in circulation. This methods are known as Monetary policy. The Central bank, at its discretion, can print more currency to increase the flow of currency in circulation
The Federal Reserve Board, which is the governing body that manages the Federal Reserve System, oversees all domestic monetary policy. The Fed"s job is to increase and decrease paper currency in circulation. This effort is to curb inflation and hyperinflation, stabilize the economy and create room for ease of doing business with the international community
The Fed can increase the money supply by lowering the reserve requirements for banks, which allows them to lend more money.
Also, by raising the banks' reserve requirements, the Fed can decrease the size of the money supply.
The Central bank modify short-term interest rates by lowering or increasing the discount rate that banks pay on short-term loans from the Fed.
Modifying Reserve Requirements : they can moderate the amount of money banks can hold.
Joe wants to purchase a new skateboard. He already has $40 and can save $20 each week from his job. Write a linear equation to represent the total amount he has after ‘w’ weeks.

In your own words, describe what happens when a line is reflected across the x-axis.
Answer:
Every point in the line would get reflected about the x axis and we would get a new line.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you reflect a point about the x-axis , the x-coordinate of the image remains the same but the y - coordinate changes to its negative value.
Now a line is a collection of points and we have to find out what happens when we reflect a line about the x-axis.
Reflecting a line about the line is same as keeping a mirror along the x-axis and the image we see in the mirror is the same as the image we obtain in the mirror.
So every point in the line would get reflected about the x axis and we would get a new line.
Final answer:
Reflecting a line across the x-axis inverts the y-coordinates of all points on the line, while the x-coordinates remain unchanged; the reflected line appears flipped over the x-axis, preserving distance but potentially changing orientation.
Explanation:
When a line is reflected across the x-axis, each point on the original line is flipped vertically to a new position on the opposite side of the x-axis, maintaining the same distance from the x-axis. Essentially, every point's y-coordinate is multiplied by -1, causing the line to appear as a mirror image of itself with respect to the x-axis. This transformation preserves the shape and size of the original line but changes its orientation relative to the x-axis.
It is 4 o’clock. What is the measure of the angle formed between the hour hand and the minute hand?
If it's 4 o'clock, the hour hand will be on the 4 and the minute hand will be on the 12.
This takes 4 partitions/pieces of the clock, and there are 12 different partitions. That's 4/12, or 1/3 of the entire clock.
The total clock is a 360 degree angle.
360 * (1/3) = 120
1/3 of 360 degrees is 120 degrees.
Since the angle between the minute and hour hand takes up 1/3 of the clock, the angle is 120 degrees.

Molly is making Strawberry infused water for each ounce of strawberry juice she uses three times as many ounces of water she wants to make a total of 64 ounces of strawberry infused water
Answer:
The Total of 16 ounces of Strawberry juice and 48 ounces of water is used for making 64 ounces of Strawberry infused water.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of Strawberry juice in ounces be 'j'
Let the amount of water in ounce be 'w'
Given:
For each ounce of strawberry juice she uses three times as many ounces of water.
It means that amount of water in ounce is 3 times of amount of strawberry juice in ounce.
framing the equation we get;
[tex]w=3j[/tex]
Now we need how many ounces of strawberry juice and how many ounces of water does she need to make 64 ounces of strawberry infused water.
We know that Total Strawberry infused water is equal to sum of amount of Strawberry juice in ounces and the amount of water in ounces
Framing in equation form we get;
[tex]j+w=64[/tex]
But we know [tex]w=3j[/tex]
hence,
[tex]j+3j= 64\\\\4j=64\\\\j=\frac{64}{4} = 16 \ ounces[/tex]
Hence amount of Strawberry juice = 16 ounces
Amount of water = [tex]3j = 3\times16 =48 \ ounces[/tex]
Hence The Total of 16 ounces of Strawberry juice and 48 ounces of water is used for making 64 ounces of Strawberry infused water.

Thirty elves would like to build a skating ring so they can all use it at the same time. Santa tells them, they need at least 40 square feet for each skater, so no one will bump into each other. If they build a rectangular rink, what are the possible dimensions (length and width)for the rink?
Answer:
The Possible dimension of the ring could be;
20 ft × 60 ft
25 ft × 48 ft
30 ft × 40 ft
60 ft × 20 ft
48 ft × 25 ft
40 ft × 30 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of skaters = 30
Area for each skater = 40 sq ft
We need to find the dimension of rectangular ring the are going to build.
Now we know that they building the skating ring such that they all can use at same time.
Hence if the all use at same time then we will find the total area first.
Total area can be calculated by multiplying Number of skaters with area required for each skaters.
Framing the equation we get;
Total area = [tex]30\times 40 = 1200 \ ft^2[/tex]
Hence The total area of the rectangular ring would be 1200 sq. ft.
Now we know that Total area is equal to product of length and width.
[tex]length\times width =1200ft^2[/tex]
1200 can be written as = 20 × 60, 25 × 48, 30 × 40,60 × 20,48 × 25,40 × 30
Hence the Possible dimension of the ring could be;
20 ft × 60 ft
25 ft × 48 ft
30 ft × 40 ft
60 ft × 20 ft
48 ft × 25 ft
40 ft × 30 ft

respectively. The length of
FG
is 50% more than the length of AB. Find the area of the quadrilateral HFGI, if A△ADB = 16sq. in.
Answer:
28 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Without constraining the problem unduly, we can make the assumption that AB = 2 inches. Then the altitude from AB to D is h in ...
Area ABD = (1/2)(AB)h
16 in² = (1/2)(2 in)(h)
16 in = h . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 1 in
__
The altitude D to AB is the sum of the heights from D to EC (h1) and from AB to EC (h2). That is ...
16 = h1 + h2
We also know that the height from FG to EC is 1/2 the height from D to EC, hence (1/2)h1. Likewise, the height to midsegment HI from either EC or AB is half the height from EC to AB, hence (1/2)h2. This means the total height of the quadrilateral HFGI is (1/2)h1 + (1/2)h2 = (1/2)(h1 +h2) = 8.
__
We are given that FG is 50% longer than AB, so its length will be ...
FG = AB×(1 + .5) = (2 in)(1.5) = 3 in
Since FG is the mid-segment of triangle CDE, base EC is twice its length, or ...
EC = 2×FG = 2(3 in) = 6 in
__
Mid-segment HI is the average of the base lengths of trapezoid ABCE, so is ...
HI = (EC +AB)/2 = (6 + 2)/2 = 4
__
Now, we know the height and base lengths of trapezoid HFGI, so we can find its area as ...
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h = (1/2)(3 in + 4 in)(8 in) = 28 in²
The area of quadrilateral HFGI is 28 square inches.
_____
You can make any assumption you like about the dimension of AB, and the rest of the dimensions scale accordingly. The result is still the same.
What is the simple interest earned on $3,672 at 4.5% for three years?
$459.72
$594.86
$518.36
$495.72
Answer: interest at the end of 3 years is $495.72
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for simple interest is expressed as
I = PRT/100
Where
P represents the principal
R represents interest rate
T represents time in years
I = interest after t years
From the information given
T = 3 years
P = $3,672
R = 4.5%
Therefore
I = (3672 × 4.5 × 3)/100
I = 49572/100
I = 495.72
For every integer k from 1 to 10, inclusive the "k"th term of a certain sequence is given by (−1)(k+1)∗(12k). If T is the sum of the first 10 terms in the sequence, then T isA. Greater than 2B. Between 1 and 2C. Between 1/2 and 1D. Between 1/4 and 1/2E. Less than 1/4
Answer:
Option D. is the correct option.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question expression that represents the kth term of a certain sequence is not written properly.
The expression is [tex](-1)^{k+1}(\frac{1}{2^{k}})[/tex].
We have to find the sum of first 10 terms of the infinite sequence represented by the expression given as [tex](-1)^{k+1}(\frac{1}{2^{k}})[/tex].
where k is from 1 to 10.
By the given expression sequence will be [tex]\frac{1}{2},\frac{(-1)}{4},\frac{1}{8}.......[/tex]
In this sequence first term "a" = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
and common ratio in each successive term to the previous term is 'r' = [tex]\frac{\frac{(-1)}{4}}{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]
r = [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Since the sequence is infinite and the formula to calculate the sum is represented by
[tex]S=\frac{a}{1-r}[/tex] [Here r is less than 1]
[tex]S=\frac{\frac{1}{2} }{1+\frac{1}{2}}[/tex]
[tex]S=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{2} }[/tex]
S = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Now we are sure that the sum of infinite terms is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex].
Therefore, sum of 10 terms will not exceed [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Now sum of first two terms = [tex]\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Now we are sure that sum of first 10 terms lie between [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Since [tex]\frac{1}{2}>\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Therefore, Sum of first 10 terms will lie between [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex].
Option D will be the answer.
How can you use the values of a, b, and c to write a quadratic function in vertex form?
Answer:
y = a(x +b/(2a))^2 + (4ac -b^2)/(4a)
Step-by-step explanation:
We presume you're starting with ...
y = ax^2 +bx +c
As you would with numbers, factor the first two terms:
y = a(x^2 +b/a·x) +c
Add half the square of the x term inside and its opposite outside parentheses:
y = a(x^2 +(b/a)x + (b/(2a))^2) + c - a(b/(2a))^2
y = a(x +b/(2a))^2 +c -b^2/(4a)
You can combine the last two terms to a more familiar fraction:
y = a(x +b/(2a))^2 + (4ac -b^2)/(4a)
To write a quadratic function in vertex form, use the values of a, b, and c. Find the coordinates of the vertex using h = -b/2a and k = f(h).
Substitute the values into the vertex form.
To write a quadratic function in vertex form, you can use the values of a, b, and c.
The vertex form of a quadratic function is given by f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k,
where (h, k) represents the coordinates of the vertex.
To find h and k, you can use the formulas h = -b/2a and k = f(h).
Once you have the values of h and k, you can substitute them into the vertex form to obtain the quadratic function in vertex form.

[tex]a_{8}=ar^{8-1}[/tex]
[tex]a_{8}=ar^{7}[/tex]
here a=4 and r=-3
[tex]a_{8}=ar^{7}[/tex]
[tex]=4\times (-3)^7[/tex]
[tex]=4\times (-2187) [/tex]
[tex]=-8748[/tex]
[tex]a_{8}=-8748[/tex]
Therefore the 8th term of geometric sequence is -8748
Suppose the size of a population of mustard plants is 6,000. According to genetic drift theory, what is the probability that a newly-arisen mutation will become fixed in this population?
Answer:
1/12,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Size of a population of mustard plants = 6,000
Now,
According to genetic drift theory
The probability that a newly-arisen mutation will become fixed is given using the formula
⇒ 1 ÷ [ 2 × Size of a population of mustard plants ]
⇒ 1 ÷ [ 2 ×6,000 ]
⇒ [ 1 ÷ 12,000 ]
Hence,
probability that a newly-arisen mutation will become fixed in this population is 1/12,000

Laneka owns a cake shop.She is currently preparing cakes for two anniversary parties. The first cake has 3 small tiers and 1 medium tier and will serve a total of 100 guests. The second one has 3 small tiers and 2 medium tiers and will serve a total of 140 guests represent the situation with a system of equations
Answer:
The system of equations are [tex]\left \{ {{3s+m=100} \atop {3s+2m=140}} \right.[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 's' represents the number of guest small tier can serve.
Let 'm' represents the number of guest medium tier can serve.
Now Given:
For First cake:
Number of small tiers = 3
Number of medium tier = 1
Total serving guest = 100
Now Total serving guest is equal to sum of Number of small tiers multiplied by the number of guest small tier can serve and Number of medium tiers multiplied by the number of guest medium tier can serve.
Framing in equation form we get;
[tex]3s+m=100[/tex]
For Second cake:
Number of small tiers = 3
Number of medium tier = 2
Total serving guest = 140
Now Total serving guest is equal to sum of Number of small tiers multiplied by the number of guest small tier can serve and Number of medium tiers multiplied by the number of guest medium tier can serve.
Framing in equation form we get;
[tex]3s+2m=140[/tex]
Hence The system of equations are [tex]\left \{ {{3s+m=100} \atop {3s+2m=140}} \right.[/tex].
It costs serine $30 to start a lemonade stand plus $0.50 per cup of lemonade. She sells cups of the lemonade for $1.25.How many cups of lemonade will serine need to break even?
Answer: it will need 40 cups of lemonade to break even
Step-by-step explanation:
Break even represents the point at which there is neither profit nor loss.
It costs serine $30 to start a lemonade stand plus $0.50 per cup of lemonade. Assuming that she made x cups of lemonade, the total cost of making x cups would be
30 + 0.5x
She sells each cup of the lemonade for $1.25 . Assuming that she sold x cups of lemonade, therefore, the total amount would be 1.25×x = 1.25x
To break even,
30 + 0.5x = 1.25x
1.25x - 0.5x = 30
0.75x = 30
x = 30/0.75
x = 40
Charlie and his friend Jay went to the fair. They were having a sale and the admission was 25% off. The regular ticket price was $9.00 and the tax is 6%. What would Charlie's total be?
Answer:
The Total of Charlie's will be $7.16.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Charlie and his friend Jay went to the fair. They were having a sale and the admission was 25% off.
Price of regular ticket = $9.00.
tax = 6%.
We need to find Charlie’s total.
So we will first find the price of regular ticket with 25% off.
25% percent of regular ticket = [tex]\frac{25}{100}\times 9 = \$2.25[/tex]
Discounted Price of regular ticket will be equal to Price of regular ticket minus Discounted amount.
Discounted Price of regular ticket = 9 - 2.25 = $6.75
Now, including tax :
Tax paid will be on discounted amount.
Hence Amount paid in tax = [tex]6\% \times 6.75= \frac{6}{100}\times 6.75 = \$0.405[/tex]
Total amount paid by charlie is equal to sum of Discounted Price of regular ticket and Amount paid in tax
Total Amount paid by charlie = [tex]6.75+0.405 =\$7.155 \approx \$7.16[/tex]
Therefore, the total of Charlie's will be $7.16.
