Knowns:
C = mx + b
m = 367
b = 1500

C = 367x + 1500

Cost (c) = 16,600

16600 = 367x + 1500
subtract 1500 from both sides

15,100 = 367x
Divide both sides by 367

x = 41.14

Korey starts a small carwash business to save up some cash. He decides to offer two different price packages to his clients. Pac
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Package A

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

The reason that package A is a better deal is beacause it goes down by a fixed rate, not by a percentage. If you get 15 carwashes, you will pay nothing for the 15th, but even if you washed your car 100 times with Package B, you would still pay something!

Have a great day!

The number of nails in the bucket is 50 less than twice a number of screws. Together, there are 400 fasteners in the bucket. How
kati45 [8]

Answer:

There are 250 nails and 150 screws in the bucket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Number of nails in bucket be x.

Also Let number of screws in the bucket be y.

Together, there are 400 fasteners in the bucket.

Hence the equation can be framed as;

x+y = 400 \ \ \ \ equation \ 1

Also Given:

The number of nails in the bucket is 50 less than twice a number of screws.

Hence the equation can be framed as;

x= 2y -50

Substituting the value of x in equation 1 we get;

x+y=400\\2y-50+y=400\\3y=400+50\\3y=450\\y= \frac{450}{3}=150

Now we have value of y we will substitute in equation 1 we get;

x+y =400\\x+150 =400\\x =400-150\\x=250

Hence there are 250 nails and 150 screws in the bucket.

Dalgliesh the detective fancies himself a shrewd judge of human nature. In careful tests, it has been discovered that he is righ
Alla [95]

Answer:

The probability that Jones is lying is 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will list out 2 different cases when the outcome is a lie

1.probability that Jones tells lies is = 0.6 and probability that dalgiliesh analyses it correctly is 0.8

So the probability that dagliesh correctly analyses that he is telling lies is 0.8*0.6=0.48

2.Probability that Jones tells truth is 0.4 and if dagliesh analyses it incorrectly (which has a probability of 0.2) the outcome(as analysed by dagiliesh) is a lie

So probability that dagliesh analyses Jones truth as a lie is 0.2*.0.4=0.08

Total probability of outcome being a lie is 0.48+0.08=0.56

But we need the probability of Jones actually saying a lie which is nothing but 0.48/0.56= 6/7
