Solve the following equation

w-6/5=-2

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: w - (6)/(5) = -2

First, move (6)/(5) around to both sides.
w = -2 +  (6)/(5)
Second, subtract the numerator (6) and -2. 
w =  -(4)/(5)

Answer as fraction: w =  -(4)/(5)
Answer as decimal: -0.8

I don't care if you cab only answer one, I would very much appreciate it if you still answered that one instead of nothing.

Answers

Answer:

1) \text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=(3)/(4)

2) \text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=(3)/(8)

3) \text{P(at least two girls)}=(1)/(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mr. and Mrs. Romero are expecting triplets. Suppose the chance of each child being a boy is 50% and of being a girl is 50%.

To  Find : The probability of each event.  

1) P(at least one boy and one girl)

2) P(two boys and one girl)

3) P(at least two girls)        

Solution :

Let's represent a boy with B and a girl with G

Mr. and Mrs. Romero are expecting triplets.

The possibility of having triplet is

BBB, BBG, BGB, BGG, GBB, GBG, GGB, GGG

Total outcome = 8

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favorable outcome}}{\text{Total number of outcome}}

1) P(at least one boy and one girl)

Favorable outcome =  BBG, BGB, BGG, GBB, GBG, GGB=6

\text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=(6)/(8)

\text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=(3)/(4)

2) P(at least one boy and one girl)

Favorable outcome =  BBG, BGB, GBB=3

\text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=(3)/(8)

3) P(at least two girls)

Favorable outcome = BGG, GBG, GGB, GGG=4

\text{P(at least two girls)}=(4)/(8)

\text{P(at least two girls)}=(1)/(2)

 

Let's represent a boy with B and a girl with G

For example BBB is three boys and BGB is two boys and one girl.

These are all the possibilities

1) BBB

2) BBG

3) BGB

4) BGG

5) GBB

6) GBG


7) GGB

8) GGG

There is in total 8 different possibilities.

Now let's analyze the conditions

p (at least one boy and one girl)

That excludes only BBB and GGG so they are 6 possibilities out of 8

p = 6/8 = 3/4

p (two boys and one girl).

Those are 3 out of 8

p = 3/8

p (at least two girls)

Those are 3 (two girls) + 1(three girls) = 4

P = 4/8 = 1/2

You have a coupon good for $5 off the price, p, of any large pizza. You also get a 15% discount on any pizza if you show your student ID. How much more would you pay for a large pizza if the cashier applies the coupon first, rather than the 15% discount first? Please show steps to this composite function.

Answers

If the coupon is applied first.
Amount paid = $0.85(p - 5)

If the discount is applied first.
Amount paid = $0.85p - 5

Amount paid more if the coupon is applied first is 0.85(p - 5) - (0.85p - 5) = 0.85p - 4.25 - 0.85p + 5 = 0.75

Therefore, you will pay $0.75 more if the coupon is applied first rather than the 15% discount first.

As a member of a music club, you can order CDs for $14.99 each. The music club also charges $4.99 for each shipment. The expression 14.99n + 4.99 represents the cost of n CDs. Find the total cost for ordering 3 CDs.

Answers

howdy!

using the expression 14.99(n) + 4.99, the total of 3 CDs would cost $49.96.
in the expression 14.99n +499... replace the N with 3... 14.99(3)+ 4.99= 49.96

A restaurant chef ordered 4 pounds of beef at $3.25 per pound, 6 pounds of potatoes at $1.96 a pound, and 5 pounds of carrots at $1.81 per pound. He estimates that this will make 28 meals. If he charges $20 per meal, how much profit will he make for each meal?

Answers

Answer:

Profit = $18.8 per meal

Step-by-step explanation:

Chef ordered beef = 4 pounds

Cost of beef = $3.25 per pound

Total cost of beef = 4 × 3.25 = $13

Amount of potatoes ordered = 6 pounds

Cost of potatoes = $1.96 per pound

Total cost of potatoes = 6 × 1.96

                                     = $11.76  

Amount of carrots ordered = 5 pounds

Cost of carrots = $1.81 per pound

Total cost of carrots = 5 × 1.81 = $9.05

Total amount of beef, potatoes and carrots = $13 + $11.76 + $9.05

                                                                        = $33.81

Number of meals prepared with material purchased = 28

Per meal cost = (33.81)/(28) = $1.2075

Selling price of one meal = $20

Profit per meal = Selling price - Cost price

                         = 20 - 1.2075

                         = 18.7925

                         ≈ $18.8

Therefore, he will make $18.8 for each meal.
