Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are two simultaneous equation in two variables x and y as

x+y =9\\0.5x+0.2y = 4.05

To solve this let us multiply second equation by 5

x+y =9\\2.5x+y = 20.25\\----------------------\\-1.5x  =-11.25\\x = 7.5

Substitute x value in I equation to get

7.5+y =9\\y =1.5

So solution set is

x=7.5\\y=1.5

While at a carnival, Andrew comes across a game that involves rolling a die. According to the game's rules, if the number rolled
Reptile [31]

Answer:

he can expect to lose 0.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we must calculate the expected value of the game.

If x is a discrete random variable that represents the gain obtained when rolling a dice, then the expected value E is:

E =\sum xP (x)

When throwing a dice the possible values are:

x: 1→ -$9;  2→ $4;  3→ -$9;  4→ $8;  5→ -$9;  6→ $12

The probability of obtaining any of these numbers is:

p=\frac{1}{6}

The gain when obtaining an even number is twice the number.

The loss to get an odd number is $ 9

So the expected gain is:

E=-9*\frac{1}{6}-9*\frac{1}{6}-9*\frac{1}{6} + 4*\frac{1}{6} + 8*\frac{1}{6} + 12*\frac{1}{6}\\\\E =-27*\frac{1}{6} + 24*\frac{1}{6}\\\\E=-3*\frac{1}{6}\\\\E=-$0.5

$290, 12.5%, 6 months
Veronika [31]
The information shown here only shows a principal sum, a rate of interest and a period or time. There is no question as to what is needed. But suppose the need is for simple interest, then we calculate using the given information and the formula: I = PRT where I is simple interest, P is the principal, R is the rate per year, and T is time P = 290, T is 6 months which is 0.5 years, R = 12.5 % which is written as 0.125 in decimal fraction. I = 290 × 0.125 x 0.5 → I = 18.125 Therefore after 6 months , the interest earned will be 18. 125 dollars

Which point is located at (4, –2)? On a coordinate plane, point A is 2 units to the left and 4 units up. Point B is 4 units to t
ycow [4]

Answer:

Point B is 4 units to the right and 2 units down

Step-by-step explanation:

Since our <em>x</em> is positive, we are going to the right of the x-axis (where positive values lay).

Since our <em>y</em> is negative, we are going down in the y-axis (where negative values lay).

The table lists recommended amounts of food to order for 25 party guests. Amanda and Syndey are hosting a graduation party for 4
yan [13]

Answer:

Answer: 25 guests is 2.5 times more than 10

Multiply each order by 2.5

Chicken = 16 x 2.5 = 40

Lasagna = 7 x 2.5 = 17.5 , round to 18

Deli meat = 1.8 x 2.5 = 4.5, round to 5

Sliced cheese = 15 x 2.5 = 37.5, round to 38

Buns = 1 x 2.5 = 2.5, round to 3

Potato salad = 2 x 2.5 = 5
