<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Jenna did 16 regular haircuts
Jenna did 8 haircuts with coloring

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
Assume that the number of regular haircuts is x and the number of haircuts plus coloring is y

<u>We are given that:</u>
<u>1- Jenna did a total of 24 clients, this means that:</u>
x + y = 24
This can be rewritten as:
x = 24 - y ...............> equation I

<u>2- regular haircuts cost $25, haircuts plus coloring cost $42 and she earned a total of $736. This means that:</u>
25x + 42y = 736 ..........> equation II

<u>Substitute with equation I in equation II and solve for y as follows:</u>
25x + 42y = 736
25(24-y) + 42y = 736
600 - 25y + 42y = 736
17y = 136
y = 8

<u>Substitute with y in equation I to get x as follows:</u>
x = 24 - y
x = 24 - 8
x = 16

<u>Based on the above:</u>
Jenna did 16 regular haircuts
Jenna did 8 haircuts with coloring

Hope this helps :)

yulyashka [42]

Answer: Straight piecework plan

Step-by-step explanation:

The Straight piecework plan is a type of incentive system in which the rate per unit output is constant and fixed at a specific value. And the total earnings of a worker is calculated by multiplying the value of its total output by the rate per unit output.

In the case above the rate per unit invoice processed is fixed, so employees are paid based on the number of invoice processed per hour which makes it a Straight piecework plan system.

What is the probability that a daughter of this mating will be a hemophiliac? Express your answer as a fraction using the slash
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

zero  (0)

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of being hemophiliac and daughter is zero because females have 50% chance of being carrier.

where as males have 50% chance of being affected with hemophilia.

example for understanding: if after mating a girl have X chromosomes with hemophilia gene than she might have hemophilia but that is in rear case so probability is zero.

hope you understand my answer, thank you.

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

(a) The probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.

(b) The probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of soldiers killed by horse kicks in 1 year.

The random variable X\sim Poisson(\lambda = 0.62).

The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0,1,2,...

(a)

Compute the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year as follows:

P (X > 1) = 1 - P (X ≤ 1)

             = 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

             =1-\frac{e^{-0.62}(0.62)^{0}}{0!}-\frac{e^{-0.62}(0.62)^{1}}{1!}\\=1-0.54335-0.33144\\=0.12521\\\approx0.1252

Thus, the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.

(b)

The average deaths over 7 year period is: \lambda=7\times0.62=4.34

Compute the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years as follows:

P(X=0)=\frac{e^{-4.34}(4.34)^{0}}{0!}=0.01304\approx0.0130

Thus, the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.

A textbook store sold a combined total 402 of psychology and math textbooks in a week. The number of psychology textbooks sold w
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The number of textbooks of each type were sold is <u>134 math </u>and <u>268 psychology </u>books.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of math and psychology textbooks sold in a week is 402.

Now, let the number of math textbooks sold be x.

And, the number of psychology textbooks be 2x.

According to question:

x+2x=402

3x=402

Dividing both sides by 3 we get:

x=134

So, total number of math textbooks were 134 .

And, total number of psychology textbooks were 2x=2\times 134

                                                                                 =268.

Therefore, the number of textbooks of each type were sold is 134 math and 268 psychology books.
