To reach the second floor you would look at all ways to enter to building(8) and multiply it by the number of ways to reach the second floor (12).

8 x 12 = 96 possibilities

Think of it in groups.

1st door and 12 possible sets of steps
2nd door and 12 possible sets of steps
3rd door and 12 possible sets of steps
4th door and 12 possible sets of steps
5th door and ..., etc.....

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Theo's siste can paint a fence in x times

Given.

Theo can paint a fence three times as fast as his sister can. Working together, they can paint a fence in 9 hours.

\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{3x} =\frac{1}{9}\\\frac{3+1}{3x} =\frac{1}{9} \\\frac{4}{3x}=\frac{1}{9}

Apply cross multiplication

x=\frac{9\times 4}{3}\\x=\frac{36}{3} \\x=12hours

Theo’s sister to paint the fence in 12 hours.

Madi has $8.80 in pennies and nickels.
shepuryov [24]
Let p = number of pennies.
Let n = number of nickels.

We are given that n= 2p and the total value is $8.80.

We know that a penny = $0.01 and that a nickel = $0.05.

So $0.01p + $0.05n = $8.80.

Substitute 2p for n:
$0.01p + $0.05*2p = $8.80

$0.01p + $0.10p = $8.80

$0.11p = $8.80

p = 80
So n = 2p = 2*80 = 160

Thus there are 80 pennies ($0.8) and 160 nickels ($8.00). The value of all the coins is $8.80.

A football quarterback enjoys practicing his long passes over 40 yards. He misses the first pass 40% of the time. When he misses
dangina [55]

Answer:

8% or 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of missing the first pass = 40% = 0.40

Probability of missing the second pass = 20% = 0.20

We have to find the probability that he misses both the passes. Since the two passes are independent of each other, the probability that he misses two passes will be:

Probability of missing 1st pass x Probability of missing 2nd pass

i.e.

Probability of missing two passes in a row = 0.40 x 0.20 = 0.08 = 8%

Thus, there is 8% probability that he misses two passes in a row.

Photon Lighting Company determines that the supply and demand functions for its most popular lamp are as follows: S(p) = 400 - 4
BlackZzzverrR [31]
S(p) = 400 - 4p + 0.00002p^4
D(p) = 2800 - 0.0012p^3

S(p) = D(p)
400 - 4p + 0.00002p^4 = 2800 - 0.0012p^3
0.00002p^4 + 0.0012p^3 - 4p - 2400 = 0
p = $96.24
