Lynn is making custom bricks. She combines 39 pounds of water and 48 pounds of brick dust in a mixing bucket. She spills 13 poun

ehidna [41]

Lynn mixes 39 pounds of water with 48 pounds of brick dust, so the mixture has a total weight of 39 + 48 = 87 pounds.

13 pounds are spilled during mixing, so she's left with 87 - 13 = 74 pounds to turn into bricks.

7 pounds are needed for 1 brick, so she can make 10 bricks because 7 • 10 = 70 and 7 • 11 = 77, and 70 < 74 < 77.

If she uses the mixture to make 10 bricks, she uses up 70 pounds of it, which leaves 4 pounds to be washed out.

A new drug on the market is known to cure 30% of patients with cervical cancer. If a group of 18 patients is randomly selected,

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Probability cured of cervical cancer = 18C0 (0.30)⁰(0.70)¹⁸ + 18C1(0.30)(0.70)¹⁷

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Patients cured = 30% = 0.30

Number of patients (n) = 18

Probability cured of cervical cancer = P(X≤1)

Probability cured of cervical cancer = P(X=0) + P(X=1)

Probability cured of cervical cancer = 18C0 (0.30)⁰(0.70)¹⁸ + 18C1(0.30)(0.70)¹⁷

A theatre has the capacity to seat people across two levels, the Circle and

andriy [413]

Answer: $76.19\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: " A theatre has the capacity to seat people across two levels, the Circle, and the stalls. The ratio of the number of seats in the circle to a number of seats in the stalls is 2:5. Last Friday, the audience occupied all the 528 seats in the circle and $\frac{2}{3}$ of the seats in the stalls. What is the percentage of occupancy of the theatre last Friday?"</h3>

Let be "s" the total number of seats in the Stalls.

The problem says that the ratio of the number of seats in the Circle to the number of seats in the Stalls is $2:5$ .

Since the number of seats that were occupied last Friday was 528 seats, we can set up the following proportion:

$\frac{2}{5}=\frac{528}{s}$

Solving for "s", we get:

$s*\frac{2}{5}=528\\\\s=528*\frac{5}{2}\\\\s=1,320$

So the sum of the number of seats in the Circle and the number of seats in the Stalls, is:

$Total=1,320\ seats+528\ seats=1,848\ seats$

We know that $\frac{2}{3}$ of the seats in the Stalls were occupied. Then, the number of seat in the Stalls that were occupied is:

$(1,320)(\frac{2}{3})=880$

Therefore, the total number of seats that were occupied las Friday is:

$Total\ occupied=880\ seats+528\ seats=1,408\ seats$

Knowing this, we can set up the following proportion, where "p" is the the percentage of occupancy of the theatre last Friday:

$\frac{100}{1,848}=\frac{p}{1,408}$

Solving for "p", we get:

$(1,408)(\frac{100}{1,848})=p\\\\p=76.19\%$

use the point-slope equation to identify the slope and the coordinates of a point on the line y – 4 = 1/2 (x – 1). the slope of

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The slope of the line is $\dfrac{1}{2}$ and a point on the line is $(1, 4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The general point slope of line passing through $(x_1,y_1)$ and having slope as m.

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

The given equation of the straight line,

$y-4=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-1)$

Comparing this to the general equation we get the point as $(1, 4)$ and slope as $\dfrac{1}{2}$
