of pens, and let y represent the number of pencils.
Part A
Select the equation that describes the number of club pens and pencils that the glee club can buy.

A. 0.15x + 0.75y = 90
B. 0.75x + 0.15y = 90
C. 0.90(x + y) = 90

Answer:

part A; B and Part B;  pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

you want to find out how many pens and pencils you cn buy with that 90$ so you want to do

.75y+.15x=90

pens=50

pencils=50

but you want to add .75+.15 which = .90

then you divide 90/.90

and that equals 100

then split it up and each gets 50

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that total amount available is 90$

x represent the number of pens, and  y represent the number of pencils.

cost of each pen is 0.75 and cost of each pencil is 0.15

Then we have total cost = cost of pens + cost of pencils

= 0.75x+0.15y=90

Hence option B is right

For finding out the greatest number of each type of writing tool, we can make the other 0 and find out

Hence maximum x = \frac{90}{0.75} =120

maximum y =\frac{90}{0.15} \\=600

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Matching each vocabulary word with its corresponding example:

(1). All Americans = f. Population (a group of items, units or subjects under reference of study e.g. inhabitants of a region, numbers of cars in a city, workers in a factory and so on)  

(2). The proportion of all Americans who strongly agree that prisoners with life sentences who have Alzheimer's should be released = c. Parameter ( the number that summarizes some characteristic of a population)  

(3). The proportion of the 85 Americans surveyed who strongly agree that prisoners with life sentences who have Alzheimer's should be released = d. Statistic (the sample characteristic corresponding to a population parameter used when a sample is used to make statistical inference about a population)

(4). The answer-Strongly Agree' or 'Agree, or Disagree, or Strongly Disagree = b. Variable (any quality, characteristic, quantity or number that can be counted or measured)

(5). The 85 Americans who participated in the survey = e. Sample (a part or fraction of a population selected on some basis)

(6). The list of answers that the 85 Americans gave = a. Data (the pieces of information collected to be used for the analysis)

Hatshy [7]
The length of the diagonal will be 2.

When a translation is performed on a shaped, it simply moves location. The size and shape of the object do not change. Therefore, the length of AC will remain the same at all times.

<span>80% -------------------accuracy rate of indicating oil in the soil. (if land does have oil)
20</span>% -------------------accuracy rate of indicating not oil in the soil. (if land does have oil)

20% ---------------------accuracy rate of indicating oil in the soil. (if land has not oil)
80% ---------------------accuracy rate of indicating not oil in the soil. (if land has not oil)

 that the land has no oil----------------55%
 the test shows that it has oil-------- 20%
then 0.55*0.20=0.11=11%
the probability that the land has no oil and the test shows that it has oil is 11%
