to find a discount you would multiply 50(0.20) whatever amount you get you would subtract that from 50
this is the same as 50(0.80)
A mosquito is walking at random on the nonnegative number line. She starts at $1$. When she is at $0$, she always takes a step $1$ unit to the right, but, from any positive position on the line, she randomly moves left or right $1$ unit with equal probability. What is the expected number of times the mosquito will visit $0$ before the first time she visits $4$?
The expected number of times the mosquito will visit 0 before the first time she visits 4 is 3/4 by using concept of probability and geometric series.
Given that repeatedly throwing a fair tetrahedral die, trying to get a 4 (success) before getting a number from 1 to 3 (failure), which follows a geometric distribution.
To find the expected number of visits to 0 before reaching 4, analyze two cases:
success (reaching 4 before 0) and failure (reaching 0 before 4).By the given data, the probabilities of two cases are:
P(success) p = 1/4,
P(failure)=3/4.
The expected count of failures, X, can be found in terms of success probability p as
[tex]E[X]=\sum_{x=0}^{+\infty}[x(1-p)^xp][/tex]
On substituting p = 1/4 gives:
[tex]E(X) = 0(1/4)+1(3/4)(1/4)+2(3/4)^2(1/4)+3(3/4)^3(1/4)+.........[/tex]
On taking (1/4) gives
[tex]E(X) = 1/4[3/4+(3/4)^2+(3/4)^3+......+\infty]----(1)[/tex]
Consider [tex]3/4+(3/4)^2+(3/4)^3+......+\infty[/tex]
This forms a geometric series tends to infinity and the sum is given by :
[tex]S_\infty = a/(1-r)[/tex]
Here: a= 3/4
r = 3/4
Plugging these values into formula gives:
[tex]3/4+(3/4)^2+(3/4)^3+......+\infty = S_\infty[/tex]
[tex]S_\infty= 3/4/(1-3/4)[/tex]
On subtracting the denominator gives:
= 3/4/(1/4)
On taking reciprocal gives:
= 3/4 * 4
On simplifying gives:
= 3
Substituting these value into given equation 1 gives:
E(X) = 1/4*[3]
On multiplying gives:
E(X) = 3/4.
Therefore, the expected number of times the mosquito will visit 0 before the first time she visits 4 is 3/4 by using concept of probability and geometric series.

Starting from the same place a plane took 1 hr longer to fly 705 mi to Atlanta, than to fly 470 mi to New Orleans. If the plane flew at the same rate for the entire trip, what was the flying time for the shorter leg? a. 1 2 hr c. 1 1 2 hrs b. 1hr d. 2 hrs
Answer: d. 2 hrs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Time taken(in hours) to fly 470 mi to New Orleans. (Shorter leg)
Then Time taken to fly 705 mi to Atlanta= x+1 (longer leg)
Since the plane flew at the same rate for the entire trip.
i.e. Speed 705 mi to Atlanta = Speed to fly to New orleans
[tex]\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{705}{x+1}=\dfrac{470}{x}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ [\text{Speed}=\dfrac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}]\\\\\Rightarrow\ 705x=470(x+1)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 705x=470x+470\\\\\Rightarrow\ 705x-470x=470 \\\\\Rightarrow\ 235x=470\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{470}{235} \\\\\Rightarrow\ x=2[/tex]
hence, the flying time for the shorter leg = 2 hours
So (d) is the correct option.

-3y-2=7 what is the value of y
Answer:
y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 2 to each side to isolate the -3y. Doing this leaves you with -3y=9. You then divide each side leaving you with y = -3
Answer:
The equation has one solution at which y = -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of y, we need to isolate it from the rest of the equation.
Add 2 to both sides of the equation.Divide by -3 on both sides of the equation.Simplify the equation if necessary.[tex]\displaystyle{-3y-2=7}\\\\-3y = 9\\\\\bold{y = -3}[/tex]
We can check to make sure that y = -3 by substitution.
[tex]\displaystyle{-3(-3)-2 = 7}\\\\9-2=7\\\\7= 7 \ \checkmark[/tex]
Because we got a true statement, we can determine that y = -3.

The slope of this line is -2/3x.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope can be found by getting x1 and y1 (0,3) and x2 and y2 (3,1). Once you have these you would do y2 - y1 / x2 - x1.
And the equation then is
1 - 3 / 3 - 0. After simplifying this you get -2/3.
A number x is greater than 3.

2(x-5)-6=-18
x=___
Answer:
x= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute:2(x -5) -6 = -18
2x -10 -6 =-18
Subtract the numbers:2x -10 -6 =-18
2x -16 = -18
Add 16 to both sides of the equation:2x =16 += -18
2x -16 +16 = -18 +16
Simplify:2x = -2
Divide both sides of the equation by the same term:2x/2 = -2/2
Simplify:x=-1

Find two integers whose sum is 19 and product is 90
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The two integers are 10 and 9
10 + 9 = 19
10 x 9 = 90
The two numbers are 9 and 10.
What are integers?A number without a decimal or fractional element is known as an integer, which can be both positive and negative, including zero
Let the two integers be x and y.
Given that, the sum of the integers is 19, therefore,
x + y = 19
x = 19 - y
Given that, the product of the integer is 90:
xy = 90
(19-y)y = 90
19y - y² = 90
y² -19y + 90 =0
y² -10y - 9y + 90 = 0
y(y - 10) -9(y - 10) = 0
(y -9)(y - 10) = 0
y = 9 and y = 10
Hence, the two numbers are 9 and 10.

Answer:
48% is A and since i like quarters more than nickels and dimes its c for 30
Step-by-step explanation: Because I said so.
Answer:
To calculate the average you must add the percentages up and divide by the number of percentages. So, 52+28+34+95+16+63=288/6=48. The percentage is 48%.
For the second questions you take 100 divide by 3 since there are 3 coins and you get an 33.3%. But, since you can't have 0.3 of a coin. So, since you started with a nickel, you would end with a nickel giving you a percentage of 34% and the dimes and quarters a percentage of 33% each.

Answer:
22 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Known Quantities:
AB = CD and AC = BDCalculations:
AB = 8AC = 3CD = 8BD = 3Final Calculations:
perimeter = 2 x (3+8)perimeter = 22A cuboid with a volume of 925cm^3 has dimensions.
4cm, (x + 1) cm and (x + 11) cm.
Show clearly that x^2 + 12x - 220 = 0
Solve the equation by factorising, making sure you show the factorisation.
State both values of x on the same line.
Finally, find the dimensions of the cuboid, writing all three on one line.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the cuboid = Length * Width * Height
Given
Length = 4cm
Width = (x+1)cm
Height = (x-11)cm
Volume of the cuboid = 4(x+1)(x+11)
Volume of the cuboid = 4(x^2+11x+x+11)
Volume of the cuboid = 4(x^2+12x+11)
Volume of the cuboid = 4x*2+48x+44
925 = 4x*2+48x+44
4x*2+48x+44-925 = 0
4x*2+48x-881 = 0
Divide through by 4
x^2 + 12x - 220.25 = 0
Factorize using the general formula;
x = -12±√12²-4(-220.25)/2
x = -12±√144+881/2
x = -12±√1025/2
x = -12±32/2
x = 12+32/2
x = 20/2
x = 10
Hence the dimension of the cuboid is 4cm, (10+1)cm and (10+11)cm
Dimension is 4cm by 11cm by 21cm
2x+3y = 17
2y + z = 1
5x +10z = 25
Find x
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equations
2x + 3y = 17 → (1)
2y + z = 1 → (2)
5x + 10z = 25 → (3)
Rearrange (2) expressing z in terms of y
z = 1 - 2y
Substitute z = 1 - 2y into (3)
5x + 10(1 - 2y) = 25
5x + 10 - 20y = 25 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
5x - 20y = 15 → (4)
Multiply (1) by 20 and (4) by 3, then add to eliminate the y- term
40x + 60y = 340 → (5)
15x - 60y = 45 → (6)
Add (5) and (6) term by term to eliminate y, that is
55x = 385 ( divide both sides by 55 )
x = 7
Answer:
[tex]x = 7[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the equation [tex]2y + z = 1[/tex] , we can separate [tex]z[/tex] so that [tex]z = 1-2y[/tex].
The equation [tex]5x+10z = 25[/tex] can then be turned into:
[tex]5x+10(1-2y) = 25[/tex]
[tex]5x+10-20y = 25[/tex]
[tex]5x -20y = 15[/tex]
[tex]x-4y = 3[/tex] (divide by [tex]5[/tex] on both sides)
We can now use elimination to solve for one of the variable:
[tex]2(x-4y) = 2\times3[/tex] (times 2 to get [tex]2x[/tex] for elimination)
[tex]2x-8y=6[/tex]
[tex]2x+3y-(2x-8y) = 17-6[/tex]
[tex]11y = 11[/tex]
[tex]y = 1[/tex]
Now, we can use substitution to solve for [tex]x[/tex]:
[tex]2x+3y = 17[/tex]
[tex]2x+3 = 17[/tex]
[tex]x = 7[/tex]
Hope this helps :)

A carpenter use 65 shelves to make 13 bookcases. She uses the same number of shelves for each bookcase. Are 32 shelves enough to build 6 more bookcases?
Answer:
Yes.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the unit rate for 1 bookcase.
65 ÷ by 13 = 5 (unit rate)
Then, multiply the unit rate by the bookcases the carpenter wants to make.
6 · 5 = 30
Finally, subtract the shelves the carpenter wants to use by 30.
32 - 30 = 2 shelves.
Therefore, 32 shelves is enough to build 6 more bookcases. <3
