A jewelry artist is selling necklaces at an art fair. It costs $135 to rent a booth at the fair. The cost of materials for each

necklace is $4.50. The artist is selling the necklaces at $12 each. The inequality 12n>135+4.50n represents the situation in which the artist makes a profit. a) Will the artist make a profit if she sells 15 necklaces?

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation:

$12-$4.50= $7.50

$7.50*15= $112.50

The Total cost is $135 She will only be making $112.50 in profits.

If the measure of angle BCD=51 degrees, solve for x.

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

$x=5$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the measure of angle EFD

In this problem I will assume that ABCD is a parallelogram

In a parallelogram opposite angles are congruent and consecutive angles are supplementary

so

$m\ angle BCD=m\angle BED=51^o$

$m\ angle FED=(1/2)m\angle BED=(1/2)51^o=25.5^o$ --- > given problem

Remember that the sum of the interior angles in any triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

so

In the triangle EFD

$m\ angle FED+m\ angle FDE+m\ angle EFD=180^o$

substitute the given values

$25.5^o+55^o+m\ angle EFD=180^o$

$80.5^o+m\ angle EFD=180^o$

$m\ angle EFD=180^o-80.5^o$

$m\ angle EFD=99.5^o$

step 2

Find the measure of angle EFB

we know that

$m\angle EFB+m\angle EFD=180^o$ ---> by supplementary angles

we have

$m\ angle EFD=99.5^o$

substitute

$m\angle EFB+99.5^o=180^o$

$m\angle EFB=180^o-99.5^o$

$m\angle EFB=80.5^o$

step 3

Find the value of x

Remember that the sum of the interior angles in any triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

so

In the triangle EBF

$m\ angle BEF+m\ angle EFB+m\ angle EBF=180^o$

we have

$m\angle BEF=m\ angle FED=25.5^o$

$m\angle EFB=80.5^o$

$m\angle EBF=(14x+4)^o$

substitute

$25.5^o+80.5^o+(14x+4)^o=180^o$

solve for x

Combine like terms

$(14x+110)^o=180^o$

$14x=180-110$

$14x=70$

$x=5$

In general, the probability that it rains on Saturday is 25%. If it rains on Saturday, the probability that it rains on Sunday i

lora16 [44]

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given statements:

The probability that it rains on Saturday is 25%.

P(Sunday)=25%=0.25

Given that it rains on Saturday, the probability that it rains on Sunday is 50%.

P(Sunday|Saturday)=50%=0.5

Given that it does not rain on Saturday, the probability that it rains on Sunday is 25%.

P(Sunday|No Rain on Saturday)=25%=0.25

We are to determine the probability that it rained on Saturday given that it rained on Sunday, P(Saturday|Sunday).

P(No rain on Saturday)=1-P(Saturday)=1-0.25=0.75

Using Bayes Theorem for conditional probability:

P(Saturday|Sunday)= $\frac{P(Sunday|Saturday)P(Saturday)}{P(Sunday|Saturday)P(Saturday)+P(Sunday|No Rain on Saturday)P(No Rain on Saturday)}$

= $\frac{0.5*0.25}{0.5*0.25+0.25*0.75}$

=0.4

There is a 40% probability that it rained on Saturday given that it rains on Sunday.
