Answer:

18 students are likely to be wearing red

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we know a student either wears red , or blue, with the probability of a student wearing red is 3 times more probable than wearing white.

So, let’s say out of the 24 students, x of them are wearing white. What this practically mean is that 3 * x = 3x of the students would be expected to be wearing red.

Now, adding the number of people wearing red and white together in terms of x, we have x + 3x = 4x

We equate this to 24; 4x = 24 and x = 24/4; x = 6

The number wearing red probably is 3 * x = 3 * 6 = 18 people

Daniel [21]

Answer:

E) Choco Dream faces increasing marginal opportunity cost in the production of liquor chocolates.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Choco Dream increased their production of liquor chocolates by 500 units (to 4,500 bars per month), their opportunity was 800 units of dark chocolate. But when they needed to increase liquor chocolates by 500 more units (to 5,000 bars per month), then the opportunity cost increased to 1,000 units of dark chocolate.

That means that for the first 500 extra liquor bars, the opportunity cost = 800 dark chocolate bars / 500 liquor bars = 1.6 dark chocolate bars for every extra liquor bar.

The second increased required a higher opportunity cost = 1,000 dark chocolate bars / 500 liquor bars = 2 dark chocolate bars for every extra liquor bar.

What is the true solution to l n 20 + l n 5 = 2 l n x x = 5 x = 10 x = 50 x = 100
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

l n 20 + l n 5 = 2 l n x

ln (20×5) = ln x²

ln(100) = lnx²

100 = x²

x = +/- 10

Since logs of negative numebrs don't exist, we reject -10

lesantik [10]
At first, Anita looks like her account would grow faster. By month 4, shes at $1,200 while Miguel is at $400. However, Anita is only getting $200 a month. While Miguel gets double of whatever amount he has in his bank account. By month 10, Anita is at $2,400 while Miguel has $25,600. That is a $23,200 difference. So Miguel's bank account will grow faster than Anita.
