Answer: Option 'D' is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Event A: You get a red car
and
Similarly,
Event B: You get a convertible
and
So, if A and B are independent , then they must satisfy,
So,
Hence, Option 'D' is correct, which states that the probability of getting a red convertible is 0.08.
<u>Part a)</u> if a page is reduced to 80%, what percent enlargement is needed to return it to its original size?
Let
x---------> the percent enlargement
we know that
the original size is the 100%
so
x*80%=100%
x=(100%/80%)
x=1.25--------> 1.25=(125/100)=125%
therefore
<u>the answer Part a) is</u>
the percent enlargement is 125%
<u>Part b)</u> Estimate the number of times in succession that a page must be copied to make the final copy less than 15% of the size of the original
we know that
A photocopy machine can reduce copies to 80% of their original size
so
Copy N 1
0.80*100%=80%
Copy N 2
0.80*80%=64%
Copy N 3
0.80*64%=51.2%
Copy N 4
0.80*51.2%=40.96%
Copy N 5
0.80*40.96%=32.77%
Copy N 6
0.80*32.77%=26.21%
Copy N 7
0.80*26.21%=20.97%
Copy N 8
0.80*20.97%=16.78%
Copy N 9
0.80*16.78%=13.42%-------------> 13.42% < 15%
therefore
<u>the answer Part b) is</u>
the number of times in succession is 9
The function is given by
y=45,200 + 1,900x
and is of the form y = mx+b , where m is the rate of change and b is the fixed value ( or we can say initial value)
Now when we compare we get m = 1,900 for our problem .
So the population increases every year by 1,900.
Answer: There are 3 strips that can be cut from the roll of ribbon.
Step-by-step explanation:
since we have given that
Length of a ribbon is given by
Length of pieces of ribbon cut into strips is given by
So, we need to find the number of strips that can be cut is given by
Hence, there are 3 strips that can be cut from the roll of ribbon.
