I hour because, one of the 5 carpenters built one chair in one hour, so one of the 100 carpenters would build one chair in one hour, there are only 95 more carpenters, nothing else different.
Hope I helped!

# of chairs = x
# of carpenters = y
Time = t

# of chairs (y) is directly proportional to tx
y = t * x

Therefore, y<span>1 * t1 / x1 = y2 * t2 / x2</span>
y1, t1, x1 = 5 and y2, x2 = 100 = > t2 = 5 

Answer: 5 minutes

Find an explicit formula for the arithmetic sequence 12, 5, -2, -9,...12,5,−2,−9,...12, comma, 5, comma, minus, 2, comma, minus,
Andrew [12]

Answer:

A(n) = 19 - 7n

Step-by-step explanation:

12, 5, -2, -9,...

First term, a = 12

Common difference, d = a2 - a1

a2 = 5

a1 = 12

Common difference, d = a2 - a1

= 5 - 12

= -7

d = -7

A(n) = a + (n - 1)d

A(n) = 12 + (n - 1) -7

= 12 + (-7n + 7)

= 12 - 7n + 7

= 12 + 7 - 7n

= 19 - 7n

A(n) = 19 - 7n

Alyssa wants to know the gas mileage of her new car. She kept track of the number of miles she traveled and the number of gallon
Anna [14]

Answer:

D


Step-by-step explanation:

Since Alyssa wants to know her gas mileage, which is MILES PER GALLON, she will need to divide total miles by total gallons.

"per gallon" means per 1 unit of gallon, which we will get ONLY IF WE DIVIDE by TOTAL NUMBER OF GALLONS, hence we get "per unit of gallon".

<u>So we need to divide 243.8 miles by 7.71 gallons to get Alyssa's gas mileage.</u>

Answer choice D is right.

Harrison Water Sports has two retail outlets: Seattle and Portland. The Seattle store does 60 percent of the total sales in a ye
Anna11 [10]

Answer: P = 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

The sample space of this problems is the set of all the possible sales. It is divided in the disjoint sets:

S_s = {\text{sales made in Seattle }}\\S_p={\text {sales made in Portland}}

We have also the set of sales of boat accesories S_b, the colored one in the image.

We are given the data:

P(S_s) = 0.6\\P(S_b | S_s) = \frac{P(S_b\bigcap S_s)}{P(S_s)}=0.4\\P(S_b|S_p) =\frac{P(S_b\bigcap S_p)}{P(S_p)}=0.2

From these relations you can compute the probabilities of the intersections colored in the image:

pink\;set:\;P(S_b \bigcap S_s) =0.6*0.4=0.24\\blue\;set\;:P(S_b \bigcap S_p)=(1-0.6)*0.2 =0.08

You are asked about the conditional probability:

P(S_s|S_b) = \frac{P(S_s \bigcap S_b)}{P(S_b)}

To calculate this, you need  P(S_b) . In the image you can see that the set S_b is the union of the two disjoint pink and blue sets. Then:

P(S_b)=P((S_b \bigcap S_s)\bigcup(S_b \bigcap S_p)) = 0.24 + 0.08 = 0.32

Finally:

P(S_s|S_b) = \frac{0.24}{0.32}=0.75

A number written in expanded form is written has the sum of each blank write 39,005 in expanded form
evablogger [386]
When expanding number, we should separate the numbers according to the places like the number 275 written in expanded form 200+70+5. So, in this question we must likely done like this. The number is 39,005 the sum that is written on expanded form is 30,000+9,000+5.
