Jill counted 20 pigs and chickens in the farm. Jack counted a total of 54 legs for the animals. How many chickens were there in the farm?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the number of chickens in the farm = x

Let the number of pigs in the farm = y

Number of legs of chickens = 2*x (since chickens have 2 legs)

Number of legs of pigs = 4*y (since pigs have 4 legs)

We are given that there are a total of 20 animals (pigs + chickens)

so, number of chickens + number of pigs = 20

x + y = 20

We are given that there is a total of 54 legs in the farm

so, legs of chickens + legs of pigs = 54

2x + 4y = 54

Solving for number of chickens and pigs:

from the question, we have deduced that:

x + y = 20

2x + 4y = 54

taking the value of x from the first equation and using it in the second equation

x = 20 - y

2(20-y) + 4y = 54

40 - 2y + 4y = 54

40 + 2y = 54

2y = 14

y = 7

Using this value of y in the first equation:

x + y  = 20

x + (7) = 20

x = 13

Therefore, there are 13 chickens and 7 pigs in the farm

A. Employees attending two training sessions had the highest average sale
B. Employees with more training will always sell more units
C. The author's p-value was less than 5%
D. The author used a 10% Type-I Error probability
E. Our factor variable has only two levels since "No Training" cannot be a factor level
Consider the following hypothetical Multiple Comparisons of Means results for a study concerning differences in employee sales (in number of units sold) by training program format. Suppose that our sample consisted of sales employees and that we had sufficient evidence to reject the ANOVA null hypothesis.
Training Program Format Sample Average Sales (in Units Sold) Homogeneous Groups
No Training Session 300.05 A
One Training Session 345.68 B
Two Training Sessions 350.33 B
Which of the following statements is true based on the table above?
A. We do not need to consider the cost of the training sessions when choosing the best training program format
B. Training Program Format is our response/dependent variable
C. We expect an increase in sales when we implement one or two training sessions, but we do not expect a training program with two sessions to lead to significantly more sales than a program with only a single training session
D. Having a training program with three sessions will result in an increase in sales compared to having a training program with two sessions
Having a training program with two sessions yields significantly more sales than a training program with only one session

Answers

Complete question is;

A consulting firm submitted a bid for a large research project. The firm's management initially felt they had a 50-50 chance of getting the project. However, the agency to which the bid was submitted subsequently requested additional information on the bid. Past experience indicates that for 74% of the successful bids and 39% of the unsuccessful bids the agency requested additional information.

1. What is the prior probability of the bid being successful (that is, prior to the request for additional information)?

2. What is the conditional probability of a request for additional information given that the bid will ultimately be successful?

3. Compute the posterior probability that the bid will be successful given a request for additional information (to 2 decimals).

Answer:

1) 0.5

2)0.74

3) 0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Since we are told that they had a 50-50 chance of getting the project, Thus;

Probability of a successful bid is;

P(Successful bid) = 50/(50 + 50) = 50/100 = 0.5

2) We are told that for 74% of the successful bids, the agency requested additional information. Thus;probability of a request for additional information given that the bid will ultimately be successful is;

P(request|successful) = 74% = 0.74

3) For us to find the posterior probability that the bid will be successful given a request for additional information will be gotten using bayes theorem to get;

P(successful|request) = [P(request|successful) × P(Successful bid)] / [(P(request|successful) × P(Successful bid)) + (P(request|unsuccessful bid) × P(unsuccessful bid))]

P(request|unsuccessful bid) is given as 0.39 and P(unsuccessful) will be 0.5.

Thus;

P(successful|request) = (0.74 × 0.5)/[(0. 74 × 0.5) + (0.39 × 0.5)] ≈ 0.65


1. A person spends1/4 -part of his
income on food, 2/3part on house
rent and remaining * 630 on other
items. Find his house rent.
(a) * 2050
(b) 5040
(c) * 1000
(d) None of these​

Answers

Answer:

*2520

Step-by-step explanation:

A quarter of him income was spent on food

X (representing his income) - x/4= 3x/4

Then 2/3 was spent on house rent. Notice the, the question didnt say 2/3 of his income. Therefore it would be 2/3 of what is remaining after he pays for food.

2/3 * 3x/4= x/2

3x/4-x/2=x/4.

The remaining after all expenses are paid is 630. So:

x/4=630

x=630*4

x=2520

1/4 + 2/3 + 1/12 = 1

That is fraction on

Food + house rent + other items = Total amount

If 1/12 = 630.............. equation 1

Then 1/4 + 2/3 = 11/12

11/12= x................. equation 2

Cross multiply equation 1 & 2

1/12*x = 1155/2

To find x, cross multiply again

2x = 13860

x = 13860/2

x = 6930

This means that 11/12 + 1/12 = 6930 + 630

= 7560

Therefore 2/3(fraction for house rent)*7560(total amount)=5040

Answer is 5040

Problem 2:

Priya is walking down a long hallway. She walks halfway and stops. Then, she walks half of the remaining distance, and

stops again. She continues to stop every time she goes half of the remaining distance.

1. What fraction of the length of the hallway will Priya have covered after she starts and stops two times?

2. What fraction of the length of the hallway will Priya have covered after she starts and stops four times?

3. Will Priya ever reach the end of the hallway, repeatedly starting and stopping at half the remaining distance? Explain

your thinking.

Answers

Answer:

The answers to the questions about problem 2 are:

The fraction of the length after Priya stops two times is 3/4.The fraction of the length after Priya stops four times is 15/16.Priya will never reach the end of the hallway.

Step-by-step explanation:

The explanation about each answer is below:

1. In the first stop, Priya has walked half of the total length, and there would still be half the hallway, however, when she stops the second time, she has walked the half of the half, I mean:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}/2=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

If you add the two values you obtain the total distance traveled by Priya:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}= \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

And the distance traveled in two stops is 3/4 of the total length of the hallway.

2. With four stops the system is the same, we know with two stops Priya travels 3/4 of the hallway, now with the third stop, she will travel half of the remaining distance:

[tex]\frac{1}{4}/2=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

And in the fourth stop she will travel half of the remaining, I mean:

[tex]\frac{1}{8}/2=\frac{1}{16}[/tex]

Now, we add all the values of the distances obtained:

[tex]\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{16}= \frac{15}{16}[/tex]

So, the distance traveled by Priya in the fourth stop is 15/16 of the total length of the hallway.

3. How we know, the numbers are infinite, in the same forms the distances, by this reason, how the problem says that Priya walks just half of the distance, she will never reach the end because despite she has very near of the end, she will continue walking just half and ever smaller distances.

Then express the total monthly cost to use the bus without a coupon​ book, g, as a function of the number of times in the month the bus is​ used, x.

Answers

Answer:

26 times

Step-by-step explanation:

The question has missing details. However, the given parameters are

Given

Without Coupon

Bus Fare = $2.00

With Coupon

Coupon = $39.00

Bus Fare = $0.50

Represent the number of fares with x

Without Coupon, cost of fares is

Cost = 2x

i.e.

f(x) = 2x

With Coupon, cost of fares is

Cost = 39 + 0.5x

i.e.

g(x) = 39 + 0.5x

To calculate when both fares will be equal, we must have:

f(x) = g(x)

2x = 39 + 0.5x

Collect like terms

2x - 0.5x = 39

1.5x = 39

Solve for x

x = 39/1.5

x = 26

This implies that, for both cost to be equal, the person must go 26 times
