A research team conducted a study showing that approximately 20% of all businessmen who wear ties wear them so tightly that they actually reduce blood flow to the brain, diminishing cerebral functions. At a board meeting of 15 businessmen, all of whom wear ties, what are the following probabilities?

(a) at least one tie is too tight

(b) more than two ties are too tight

(c) no tie is too tight

(d) at least 13 ties are not too tight

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b) more than two ties are too tight

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of 15

15 = 100%

x = 20%

100x = 15 * 20

x = 300/100

x = 3

ps: I always wear my tie loose at any circumstance, guess I'll never be a good businessman with reduced blood flow to the brain =/

The speed of object A is 1,500 mph faster than that of object B. If
object B travels 3,500 miles in the same amount of time that object A
travels 85,000 miles, then find the speed of object A.

Answers

Answer:

1564.42 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = Object A's speed

     b = Object B's speed

a = b + 1500

a/85000 = b/3500

Let's make subtract 1500 from both sides of the first equation

a = b + 1500

- 1500  - 1500

b = a - 1500

Cross multiply the second equation

3500a = 85000b

Plug in the new b into this new equation

3500a = 85000(a - 1500)

3500a = 85000a - 127500000

Subtract 3500a and 127500000 from both sides

3500a = 85000a - 127500000

- 3500a  - 3500a

0 = 81500a - 127500000

+ 127500000    + 127500000

127500000 = 81500a

Divide both sides by 81500

127500000/81500 = 81500a/81500

a = 1564.4171779141104

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  C.  1/(4a)

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume you're comparing the vertex form ...

  y = a(x -h)^2 +k

to the form used to write the equation in terms of the focal distance p.

  y = 1/(4p)(x -h)^2 +k

That comparison tells you ...

  a = 1/(4p)

  p = 1/(4a) . . . . . . multiply by p/a; matches choice C

__

Additional comment

When using plain text to write a rational expression, parentheses are needed around any denominator that has is more than a single constant or variable. The order of operations requires 1/4a to be interpreted as (1/4)a. The value of p is 1/(4a).

When rational expressions are typeset, the fraction bar serves as a grouping symbol identifying the entire denominator:

1/4 + 23/28 - 1

please help

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{4} + \frac{23}{28} - 1 = ?[/tex]

First off, let's change everything to a common denominator. This will allow us to add the fractions!

To find a common denominator, we find a number that both 4, 28, and 1 can go into. 28 is the best choice, as 4 goes into it 7 times, 28 goes into it once, and 1 goes into it 28 times.

Let's change the first fraction into a number with a denominator of 28!

[tex]\frac{1}{4} * \frac{7}{7} = \frac{7}{28}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7}{7}[/tex] = 1. Multiplying a number by one doesn't change its value.

The second fraction, [tex]\frac{23}{28}[/tex], already has a denominator of 28, so we don't have to do anything with it.

Now to the third number, -1:

[tex]-1 = -\frac{1}{1} * \frac{28}{28} = -\frac{28}{28}[/tex]

Now, let's add them all up!

[tex]\frac{7}{28} + \frac{23}{28} - \frac{28}{28} = \frac{7 + 23 - 28}{28} = \frac{2}{28}[/tex]

One last step, to simplify:

[tex]\frac{2}{28} = \frac{1}{14}[/tex]

Your answer is 1/14!

Aman bought a computer for 24000 and its accessories pack worth for 1750. He sold it all for *26780. Find his gain and gain per cent.​

Answers

Answer:

4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Gain percentage = 1030/25750 x 100 = 4%

Answer:

$1,030, 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Aman spent $25,750 on a computer and accessory packs (totally worth it). He sold it for $26,780. So let's say Aman is at 0 before he bought this. He spent $25,750, so we subtract that from 0 to get -25,750. Then he sells it all for $26,780 (again totally worth it for the person buying). So we add 26,780 to the total.

-25,750 + 26,780 = 1,030

So Aman made a profit of $1,030 (now he can buy a REASONABLY priced MacBook Air or something)

So to find the percentage that he gained, we divide 1,030 by his original spending price, namely 25,750

1,030/25,750 = 0.04

Convert that to percentage form, you get 4%
