Answer:  The required probability is \dfrac{1}{2500}.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that in a shipment of toys from a manufacturer, where

the probability that a toy is defective is \frac{1}{50}.

We are to find the probability that both toys are defective, if Marie selects 2 toys from a shipment.

Since the events of selecting toys from a shipment are independent of each other,

therefore, the required probability that both toys are defective, if Marie selects 2 toys from a shipment will be

P=\dfrac{1}{50}\times\dfrac{1}{50}=\dfrac{1}{2500}.

Thus, the required probability is \dfrac{1}{2500}.

A population of endangered birds decreases by 3% each year.
Lana71 [14]
Since the number of bird decreases 3% per year then for year 1 there will be 29 100 birds left. This value is 97% of 30000. From this the number of birds for year 1 is N = 30000(1-0.03)

A. N = 30,000(1-0.03)^{2}

B. To solve this we use the equation we established in letter A. We get the answer by substituting T with 20. N = 16,000. <span />

A commuter railway has 800 passengers a day and charges each one 2 dollars. ?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

I= -20p^2 + 840p

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ticket price is $2 there are 800 passengers daily, but every $0.1 increase in ticket price the number of passengers will be decreased by 2.  

You can put information into these equations of:

passenger- = (800-2x)

ticket price= p = $2 + 0.1x

Income is calculated by multiplying the number of the passenger with the ticket price. The answer will be expressed in terms of the ticket price, so we need to remove x from the passenger equation.

p= $2 +0.1x

p-$2 = 0.1x

x= 10p- $20

If  p= ticket price, the function for the number of passengers it will be:

passenger = (800-2x)

passenger = 800- 2(10p- $20)

passenger =800- 20p+40

passenger =840- 20p

The function of I will be:

I= passenger x ticket price

I=  840- 20p * p

I= -20p^2 + 840p
