Answer:

2400 gallons of water

Step-by-step explanation:

The new shower head releases 2 gallons per minute as compared to the old type.

each person spends an average of 8 minutes in shower per day. This means each person will use 8*2 number of gallons per day.

the number of persons in the family is 5.

if 1 person uses 8*2 gallons per day, 5 people will require 8*2*5

In a 30 days period the number of gallons used by the family will be

=8*2*5*30

=2400 gallons.

Julli [10]

Answer:

The smallest bag that has enough food to feed his bag for one month

 = 3.6 kilogram

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity of dry food Ray feeds his dog = 0.12 kilogram

So the quantity of food he feeds his dog in one month

    = 0.12 × 30              ∵ since 1 month = 30 days

    =  3.6 kilogram

The smallest bag that has enough food to feed his bag for one month

 = 3.6 kilogram

Toby's Tiny Toys have fixed expenses of $53,900 for the production of their tiny toys. Toby's has a variable expense of $12.50 a
ipn [44]

The total cost of the factory will be the sum of its variable costs and it's fixed costs. The factory has fixed costs of $53,900 and variable costs of $12.50 per unit produced. Let x be the number of toy's produced by this Toby's Tiny Toys, then the total variable costs will be 12.50x. From this information we can gather that the cost function for this factory is,

C(x)=53\,900+12.50x.

On the other hand, if we let x be the number of toys sold, we can gather that at the selling price of 16.50, the revenue function will be ,

R(x)=16.50x.

Toby's Tiny Toys will reach their break even point when the total costs are equal to the total revenue. At this break even point ,we have that

R(x)=C(x)\\\implies 16.50x=12.50x+53\,900\\\implies 16.50x-12.50x=53\,900\\\implies 4x=53\,900\\\implies x=\frac{53\,900}{4} \\\implies x=134\,750.

The company has to sell 134 750 units to break even.

In 2019, approximately 97.4% of all the runners who started the Boston Marathon (in Boston, Massachusetts, USA) were able to com
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The probability that exactly 97 of them finished the marathon​ is 0.221.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in 2019, approximately 97.4% of all the runners who started the Boston Marathon were able to complete the 42.2 km race.

100 runners are chosen at random.

The above situation can be represented through the binomial distribution;

P(X = x) = \binom{n}{r} \times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r};x = 0,1,2,3,......

where, n = number of trials(or samples) taken = 100 runners

           r = number of success = exactly 97

           p = probability of success which in our question is the probability

                 that runners finished the marathon​, i.e; p = 0.974

So, X ~ Binom(n = 100, p = 0.974)

Now, the probability that exactly 97 of them finished the marathon​ is given by = P(X = 97)

         P(X = 97) = \binom{100}{97} \times 0.974^{97} \times (1-0.974)^{100-97}

                          = 161700 \times 0.974^{97} \times 0.026^{3}

                          = 0.221

Hence, the required probability is 0.221.
