Phoenix [80]

Answer:

59%

Step-by-step explanation:

The information from Satellite Company Y is:

65 people watch live and 94 people watch recorded.

The total number of people from Y is:

65 + 94 = 159

So the probability that a random person from Y watches recorded shows more often is given by the division of the number of people watching more recorded shows (94) over the total number of people (159):

Probability = 94 / 159 = 0.5912 = 59.12%

Rounding to nearest whole percent, we have 59%

Here are the ingredients for making fish pie for 6 people.
yarga [219]
Clare would need 80 of fish, (1/3 of 240 is 80.)
Ian would need 200g of butter (If you find the amount of each ingredient needed for a one person-pie, and multiply them by the amount of people you need to feed, you will get your answer.)
We know that 80g of butter is used for 6 people, so by dividing 80 by 6, we know that for a one person-pie, you would need 13.33g of butter. Multiply 13.33 by 15 to find out how many grams of butter he would need for a pie for 15 people.

The owner of a football team claims that the average attendance at games is over 74,900, and he is therefore justified in moving
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Option c (Upper tailed) is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The average attendance is:

= 74,900

We will have to test:

⇒ H_0:\mu \leq \mu_0

or,

   H_0: \mu \leq 74,900

Verses,

⇒ H_1: \mu> \mu_0

or,

    H_1: \mu >74,900

The other given alternatives aren't connected to the given scenario. So the above is the correct one.

gayaneshka [121]
A) 672750
B) 68250
C) 2960100

Explanation
A)  We have 26 letters from which to choose 4, and 10 digits from which to choose 2:
_{26}C_4\times_{10}C_2=\frac{26!}{4!22!}\times\frac{10!}{2!8!}=14950\times45=672750

B) We have 26 letters from which to choose 2, and 10 digits from which to choose 4:
_{26}C_2\times_{10}C_4=\frac{26!}{2!24!}\times\frac{10!}{4!6!}=325\times210=68250

C) We have 26 letters from which to choose 5, and 10 digits from which to choose 2:
_{26}C_5\times_{10}C_2=\frac{26!}{5!21!}\times\frac{10!}{2!8!}=65780\times45=2960100

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

For a = 1.22 there is one solution where y = 1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let´s write the system of equations:

a(0.3 - y) + 1.1 +2.4x(y-1.2) = 0

-1.2(x-0.5) = 0

Let´s solve the second equation for x:

-1.2(x-0.5) = 0

x- 0.5 = 0

x = 0.5

Now let´s repalce x = 0.5 and y = 1.3 in the first equation and solve it for a:

a(0.3 - y) + 1.1 +2.4x(y-1.2) = 0

a(0.3 - 1.3) + 1.1 + 2.4(0.5)(1.3 -1.2) = 0

a(-1) + 1.1 + 1.2(0.1) = 0

-a + 1.22 = 0

-a = -1.22

a = 1.22

Let´s check the solution and solve the system of equations with a = 1.22. Let´s solve the first equation for y:

1.22(0.3 - y) + 1.1 +2.4(0.5)(y-1.2) = 0

0.366 - 1.22y + 1.1 + 1.2 y - 1.44 = 0

-0.02y +0.026 = 0

-0.02y = -0.026

y = -0.026 / -0.02

y = 1.3

Then, the answer is correct.

Have a nice day!
