It was given that

1 gal = 20 lbs of CO2
1 gal = 25 miles distance

Thus, 

15000 miles/year ( 1 gal / 25 miles ) ( 20 lbs CO2 / 1 gal ) = 12000 CO2

<span>If Harry drives 15,000 miles per year, his vehicle will add 12000 pounds of CO2 to the atmosphere.</span>

A computer program contains one error. In order to find the error, we split the program into 6 blocks and test two of them, sele
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
There are \dbinom62 ways of selecting two of the six blocks at random. The probability that one of them contains an error is

\dfrac{\dbinom11\dbinom51}{\dbinom62}=\dfrac5{15}=\dfrac13

So X has probability mass function

f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\dfrac13&\text{for }x=1\\\\\dfrac23&\text{for }x=0\end{cases}

These are the only two cases since there is only one error known to exist in the code; any two blocks of code chosen at random must either contain the error or not.

The expected value of finding an error is then

\displaystyle\sum_{x=0}^1xf_X(x)=0\times\dfrac23+1\times\dfrac13=\dfrac13

You want to rent a limousine for a trip to the city. The limo costs $700 for the night and $0.15 per mile. You have $750 to spen
frez [133]
The first thing I would do is write an expression for the amount the limo will cost in terms of the number of miles you drive.  In this scenario, the cost=.15(mile)+700.
Now is the question, should the limo cost more or less than $750 to stay on budget?  The answer is you should spend less than $750.  Thus, when writing the inequality, or .15m+700<750.  However, you could spend exactly $750 so you inequality should really be .15m+700≤750.  Now you just need to solve this for the number of miles you can drive.  

First, subtract 700 from both sides and you are left with .15m≤50
Then divide both sides by .15 and you are left with m ≤ 333.33.  Thus, the limo can only travel 333.33 miles.

Jacinta buys 4 pounds of turkey and 2 pounds of ham. She pays a total of $30, and the turkey costs $1.50 less per pound than the
marissa [1.9K]

Given

jacinta buys 4 pounds of turkey and 2 pounds of ham & pays a total of $30, turkey costs $1.50 less per pound than the ham.

find out the combined cost of 1 pound of turkey and 1 pound of ham

To proof

As given in the question

jacinta buys 4 pounds of turkey and 2 pounds of ham

total pay by jacinta = $30

let us assume that the price of the ham = x

as given in the question

turkey costs $1.50 less per pound than the ham

turkey costs becomes = x - 1.50

then the equation becomes

30 = 4 (x - 1.50) + 2x

30 = 4x + 2x - 6

36 = 6x

x = 6

thus

ham cost per pound = $6

turkey cost per pound = 6 - 1.50

                                    = $ 4.5

Now find out

cost of 1 pound of turkey + 1 pound of ham = $ 6 + $ 4.5

                                                                       = $ 10.5

Hence proved
