Answer: 3 million barrels


Step-by-step explanation:

Given :- Total crude oil= 60 million barrels

Quantity of gasoline = 34% of total crude oil

=0.34\times60\text{ million barrels}\\=20.4\text{ million barrels}

Quantity of diesel = 29% of total crude oil

=0.29\times60\text{ million barrels}\\=17.4\text{ million barrels}

Clearly, Quantity of gasoline is more than Quantity of diesel

difference = Quantity of gasoline-Quantity of diesel

20.4\text{ million barrels}-17.4\text{ million barrels}\\=3\text{ million barrels}

Therefore, The production of gasoline is 3 million barrels more than diesel last year.

A ferry traveled 1/6 of the distance between two ports in 3/7 hour. At this rate, what fraction of the distance between the two
liraira [26]
(1/6) / (3/7) = x / 1......1/6 distance to 3/7 hr = x distance to 1 hr
cross multiply
(3/7)(x) = (1/6)(1)
3/7x = 1/6
x = (1/6) / (3/7)
x = 1/6 * 7/3
x = 7/18 <=== 7/18 of the distance in 1 hr

Of the coffee makers sold in an appliance​ store, 4.0% have either a faulty switch or a defective​ cord, 2.5% have a faulty​ swi
lukranit [14]

Answer: Hence, Probability that a coffee maker will have a defective cord is 0.376=37.6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let A be the event of getting a faulty switch.

Let B be the event of getting a defective cord.

Here, P(A∪B) = 4% = 0.04

P(A∩B) = 0.1% = 0.001

P(A) = 2.5% = 0.025

We need to find P(B):

As we know that

P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\0.04=P(A)+0.025-0.001\\\\0.04=P(A)+0.024\\\\P(A)=0.04-0.024=0.376

Hence, Probability that a coffee maker will have a defective cord is 0.376=37.6%.

timofeeve [1]

A,B,C,D i.e. all statements are true!

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

According to question, Lynn works as a part-time vendor selling necklaces for $15 each and bangles for $10 each. She needs to earn a minimum of $300 per week to cover her expenses. The inequality for above scenario will be :

15x + 10y\geq 300 where, x is number of necklaces & y is number of bangles.

A.

Lynn will meet her goal if she sells 12 bangles and 12 necklaces. i.e. x=12 and y=12 , putting values inequality : 15(12) + 10(12)  = 300 which follows inequality . True statement!

B.

Lynn will meet her goal if she sells 20 bangles and 6 necklaces.

putting values inequality : 15(6) + 10(20) = 290 which follows inequality . True statement!

C.

Lynn will meet her goal if she sells 6 bangles and 12 necklaces. putting values inequality : 15(12) + 10(6) = 240, which follows inequality . True statement!

D.

Lynn will meet her goal if she sells 2 bangles and 18 necklaces.putting values inequality : 15(18) + 10(2)=290, which follows inequality . True statement!
