Answer:

The total cost of 5 pillows and 7 sheets is $205.345

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the price of pillow case

We are given that the price of the pillows is 3 times as much as the price of a pillow case

Price of pillow = 3x

Price of 2 pillows = 2(3x)=6x

Price of 3 pillow case = 3x

At a store, 2 pillows and 3 pillow cases together cost $73.08.

So, 6x+3x=73.08

9x=73.08

$x=\frac{73.08}{9}$

x=8.12

So, Price of 1 pillow case = 8.12

Price of 1 pillow = 3x=3(8.12)=24.36

Price of 3 pillow =3(24.36)=73.08

Let y be the cost of 1 sheet

The total cost of 3 pillows and 4 sheets is $120.82

So, 73.08+4y=120.82

$y=\frac{120.82-73.08}{4}$

y=11.935

Price of 1 sheet = 11.935

Price of 7 sheets = 7(11.935)=83.545

Price of 5 pillows =5(24.36)=121.8

So,the total cost of 5 pillows and 7 sheets=83.545+121.8=205.345

Hence the total cost of 5 pillows and 7 sheets is $205.345

sergejj [24]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The population of the poll is the United States Population EXCLUDING New England States. In other words, the population is all USA population except the New England population. Remember that population is all the set of individuals from where you extract your sample. The sample are those 2,700 adults interviewed.

B) The sampling used is, as said in the statement, a randome sampling.

C) Yes! There could be a bias because of the exclusion of New England States if the people who lives there tends to have more guns than the average american population. This could be, for example, due to that those states have the least gun owning in America or, contrary, if they have the highest. If Rode Island is the most violent state and has the highest gun owning rate, the results could be biased. However, we can't confirm it without seeing the data, but there is possible.

A maple syrup company is making a new label for its barrels of syrup. If the barrels are 5 feet tall and have a radius of 2 feet

Elanso [62]

Answer:

(A)62.8 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the barrels = 5 feet

Radius of the barrels= 2 feet

$\pi$ =3.14

The barrel is in the shape of a cylinder and the area of the label the company needs is that of the round sides(curved surface area) of the cylinder.

Curved Surface Area of a Cylinder= $2\pi rh$

=2X3.14X2X5

=62.8 square feet

The company need 62.8 square feet of label.

A random draw is being designed for 210 participants. A single winner is to be chosen, and all the participants must have an equ

Over [174]

Answer: The correct number of balls is (b) 4.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a single winner is to be chosen in a random draw designed for 210 participants. Also, there is an equal probability of winning for each participant.

We are using 10 balls, numbered through 0 to 9. We are to find the number of balls which needs to be picked up, regardless of order, so that each of the 210 participants can be assigned a unique set of numbers.

Let 'r' represents the number of balls to be picked up.

Since we are choosing from 10 balls, so we must have

$^{10}C_r=210.$

The value of 'r' can be any one of 0, 1, 2, . . , 10.

Now,

if r = 1, then

$^{10}C_1=\dfrac{10!}{1!(10-1)!}=\dfrac{10!}{1!9!}=\dfrac{10\times 9!}{1\times 9!}=10$

If r = 2, then

$^{10}C_2=\dfrac{10!}{2!(10-2)!}=\dfrac{10!}{2!8!}=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8!}{2\times 1\times 8!}=45$

If r = 3, then

$^{10}C_3=\dfrac{10!}{3!(10-3)!}=\dfrac{10!}{3!7!}=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{3\times 2\times 1\times 7!}=120$

If r = 4, then

$^{10}C_4=\dfrac{10!}{4!(10-4)!}=\dfrac{10!}{4!6!}=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8\times\times 7\times 6!}{4\times 3\times 2\times 1\times 6!}=210.$

Therefore, we need to pick 4 balls so that each participant can be assigned a unique set of numbers.

Thus, (b) is the correct option.

An expression is well-defined if you can compute its value without any illegal operations. examples of expressions that are not

Gelneren [198K]

The given expression is $\frac{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{1 - x}}{\sqrt{x}}$

So, we have 3 square roots.
The number under a square root sign must be Non negative.
Beside that the denominator must be not equal zero.
For the term ⇒⇒⇒ $\sqrt{x}$
∴ x > 0 ⇒⇒⇒ x ∈ (0,∞)
For the term ⇒⇒⇒ $\sqrt{x+1}$
∴x+1 ≥ 0 ⇒⇒⇒ x ≥ -1 ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ x ∈ [-1,∞)
For the term ⇒⇒⇒ $\sqrt{1-x}$
∴ 1-x ≥ 0 ⇒⇒⇒ x ≤ 1 ⇒⇒⇒ x ∈ (-∞,1]

So, The values of x which make the expression well defined

∴ x ∈ { (0,∞) ∪ [-1,∞) ∪ (-∞,1] }

∴ x ∈ [-1,0) ∪ (0,1]

OR can be written as ⇒⇒ x ∈ [-1,1] - {0}
