13/(1 3/7)
First convert to improper fraction.
13/(10/7)
Then, note that division is the same as multiplying by the divisor's reciprocal.
13x7/10=9.1
answer: $9.10 per kilogram
Correct question:
An urn contains 3 red and 7 black balls. Players A and B withdraw balls from the urn consecutively until a red ball is selected. Find the probability that A selects the red ball. (A draws the first ball, then B, and so on. There is no replacement of the balls drawn).
Answer:
The probability that A selects the red ball is 58.33 %
Step-by-step explanation:
A selects the red ball if the first red ball is drawn 1st, 3rd, 5th or 7th
1st selection: 9C2
3rd selection: 7C2
5th selection: 5C2
7th selection: 3C2
9C2 = (9!) / (7!2!) = 36
7C2 = (7!) / (5!2!) = 21
5C2 = (5!) / (3!2!) = 10
3C2 = (3!) / (2!) = 3
sum of all the possible events = 36 + 21 + 10 + 3 = 70
Total possible outcome of selecting the red ball = 10C3
10C3 = (10!) / (7!3!)
= 120
The probability that A selects the red ball is sum of all the possible events divided by the total possible outcome.
P( A selects the red ball) = 70 / 120
= 0.5833
= 58.33 %
You can start with the equation of
(1/6)x8+(1/8)x6+(1/12)x X=3
Multiply by common denominator of 24 to get
32+18+2x=72
Simplify it we get
50+2x=72
Eliminate using algebra (because it’s add 50 take away the 50 on both sides)
2x=22
Because it’s X2 divide by 2 on both sides
x=11
It will take 11 days
Answer: C. 70 percent
Step-by-step explanation:
Given, Time for the first unit = 50 minutes
Time for the second unit = 35 minutes
The unit improvement factor learning curve = (The time for the second unit) ÷ (time for the first unit) x 100.
So, The unit improvement factor learning curve = 35÷ 50 × 100 = 70 percent.
Hence, the correct option is "C. 70 percent".
Answer:
Caleb paid less than Omar by $12.
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial cost of each repair is $1,000.
One coupon is for $80 off the repair cost. The other coupon is for 15% off the repair cost.
Case 1:
Omar uses the $80 off the repair cost coupon first. He then uses the 15% off the repair cost coupon on the remaining balance.
Step 1: 
Step 2:
dollars
Case 2:
Caleb uses the 15% off the repair cost coupon first. He then uses the $80 off the repair cost coupon on the remaining balance.
Step 1: 
Step 2:
dollars
Now, comparing the values we can see that Caleb paid less.
He paid less by
dollars.
