An unprepared student makes random guesses for the ten​ true-false questions on a quiz. Find the probability that there is at least one correct answer. Round to the nearest thousandth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.999

Step-by-step explanation:

At least 1 correct means, 1 correct, 2 correct, 3 correct ... until 10 correct. That would be a long process to calculate.

Instead we use the complement rule to calculate.

[tex]P(x\geq1)=1-P(x<1)[/tex]

So we need to find P(x<1). So this is getting 0 answers correct, or 10 incorrect.

In true false question, probablity of correct is 1/2 and incorrect is 1/2, hence,

Probability of 10 incorrect is (1/2)^10

Thus,

[tex]P(x\geq1)=1-(\frac{1}{2})^{10}=0.999[/tex]

So the answer is 0.999 (rounded to nearest thousandth)

Answer 2

An unprepared student's probability of guessing at least one correct answer in a ten-question true-false quiz is 0.999, found by calculating the complement of all answers being incorrect.

To find the probability that an unprepared student makes at least one correct guess on a ten-question true-false quiz, we start by recognizing that each question has two possible answers (true or false), so the probability of guessing correctly on a single question is 0.5.

The complement of guessing at least one correct answer is guessing all answers incorrectly. The probability of guessing one question incorrectly is also 0.5. Therefore, the probability of guessing all ten questions incorrectly is (0.5)¹⁰.

Calculation:

Probability of a wrong answer for each question: 0.5 Probability of all incorrect answers: (0.5)^10 = 0.0009765625

The probability of guessing at least one correct answer is the complement of this probability:

1 - 0.0009765625 = 0.9990234375

Rounding to the nearest thousandth, the probability that the student guesses at least one correct answer is 0.999.

PVC pipe is manufactured with mean diameter of 1.01 inch and a standard deviation of 0.003 inch. Find the probability that a random sample of n = 9 sections of pipe will have a sample mean diameter greater than 1.009 inch and less than 1.012 inch.

Answers

Answer: 0.8186

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean : [tex]\mu=1.01\text{ inch}[/tex]

Standard deviation :  [tex]\sigma=0.003\text{ inch}[/tex]

Sample size :  [tex]n=9[/tex]

The formula to calculate z-score :-

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

For x=1.009 inch

[tex]z=\dfrac{1.009-1.01}{\dfrac{0.003}{\sqrt{9}}}=-1[/tex]

For x=1.012 inch

[tex]z=\dfrac{1.012-1.01}{\dfrac{0.003}{\sqrt{9}}}=2[/tex]

Now, The p-value =[tex]P(-1<z<2)=P(2)-P(-1)=0.9772498-0.1586553=0.8185945\approx0.8186[/tex]

6x - 8 = 16

Solve the following equation. Then place the correct number in the box provided.

Answers

Answer:

  x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 8 to both sides of the equation:

  6x -8 +8 = 16 +8

  6x = 24

Divide both sides of the equation by 6:

  6x/6 = 24/6

  x = 4

For this case we have the following equation:

[tex]6x-8 = 16[/tex]

We must find the value of the variable "x":

Adding 8 to both sides of the equation we have:

[tex]6x = 16 + 8\\6x = 24[/tex]

Dividing between 6 on both sides of the equation we have:

[tex]x = \frac {24} {6}\\x = 4[/tex]

Thus, the solution of the equation is[tex]x = 4[/tex]

In a certain​ country, the true probability of a baby being a boy is 0.527. Among the next seven randomly selected births in the​ country, what is the probability that at least one of them is a girl​?

Answers

Answer: 0.9887

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The true probability of a baby being a boy : [tex]0.527[/tex]

The number of selected births : [tex]7[/tex]

Now, the when next seven randomly selected births in the​ country, then the probability that at least one of them is a girl​ is given by :_

[tex]\text{P(at least one girl)=1-P(none of them girl)}\\\\=1-(0.527)^7=0.988710510435\approx0.9887[/tex]

Hence, the probability that at least one of them is a girl​ =0.9887

Final answer:

The probability of at least one girl being born among seven births in a country where a boy has a 0.527 chance of being born is calculated by subtracting the probability of all seven being boys from 1.

Explanation:

The question asks about the probability of at least one girl being born among the next seven randomly selected births in a country where the true probability of a baby being a boy is 0.527. To find this, we can use the complement rule, which focuses on the probability that all seven births will be boys, the opposite of what we want to find.

First, we find the probability of all seven being boys:

P(all boys) = (0.527)⁷

Next, we subtract this from 1 to get the probability of at least one girl:

P(at least one girl) = 1 - P(all boys)

This gives us the probability that at least one of the next seven births will be a girl.

Length of a rectangle is four times its width if the area of the rectangle is 196 yards find its perimeter

Answers

Answer:

22 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Length is four times its width   ----->    L=4W

area of rectangle is 196           ----->   196=LW

Plug L=4W into 196=LW giving you 196=(4W)W

Simplify a bit 196=4W^2

Divide both sides by 4:   196/4=W^2

Simplify a bit:   49=W^2

Square root both sides:  7 or -7=W

The width is 7 yd

The length is 4(7)=28 yd

Now its final part is for you to find the perimeter of this rectangle.  The rectangle is a 7 yd by 4 yd rectangle.

Double both then add.. 14+8=22 yd

Answer:

21 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of a rectangle is four times its width =

L = 4 × w

The area of the rectangle is 196

L = 4W

A = L*W = 196

---

4W*W = 196

W*W = 196/4

W*W = 49

W = 7

L = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that two line segments AB and CD are formed from the points A ([tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex], B ([tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex], C ([tex](x_3, y_3)[/tex] and D ([tex](x_4, y_4)[/tex].

When slopes of two perpendicular lines are multiplied, they give a product of -1.

Hence option C. [tex]\frac{y_4-y_3}{x_4-x_3} \times \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = -1[/tex] is the correct answer.

The patient recovery time from a particular surgical procedure is normally distributed with a mean of 5.2 days and a standard deviation of 1.7 days. What is the probability of spending more than 2 days in recovery? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer: 0.9713

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean : [tex]\mu = 5.2\text{ day}[/tex]

Standard deviation : [tex]\sigma = 1.7\text{ days}[/tex]

The formula of z -score :-

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

At X = 2 days

[tex]z=\dfrac{2-5.2}{1.7}=-1.88235294118\approx-1.9[/tex]

Now, [tex]P(X>2)=1-P(X\leq2)[/tex]

[tex]=1-P(z<-1.9)=1- 0.0287166=0.9712834\approx0.9713[/tex]

Hence, the probability of spending more than 2 days in recovery = 0.9713

Answer:

There is a 98.54% probability of spending more than 2 days in recovery.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 5.7, \sigma = 1.7[/tex]

What is the probability of spending more than 2 days in recovery?

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 2. So:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{2 - 5.7}{1.7}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.18[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.18[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0146.

This means that there is a 1-0.0146 = 0.9854 = 98.54% probability of spending more than 2 days in recovery.

It is given that,  for all real numbers x, if 2 x+1 is rational .

      When you will look at the expression ,2 x +1

⇒1 is rational

⇒2 x will be rational, because the expression , 2 x+1, is rational.

⇒2 x is rational, it means , x will be rational,because 2 is rational.

Some important rules considering rational and irrational

1.⇒Product of rational and rational is Rational.

2.⇒Product of Irrational and Rational is Irrational.

3.⇒Product of Irrational and Irrational may be irrational or rational.

2 x →is rational, 2 is rational number ,so x will be rational also.

Final answer:

If 2x+1 is rational, hence 2x is rational subtracting 1 which is also rational. Assuming 2x is expressible as a/b, then x is a/2b, again showing x is rational.

Explanation:

To prove that if 2x+1 is rational, then x must also be rational, we must understand the definition of rational numbers and basic properties of arithmetic operations involving rational numbers. A number is considered rational if it can be written as the quotient of two integers (where the denominator is not zero). Given that the sum of two rational numbers is also rational, if 2x+1 is rational, and we know that 1 is rational (since 1 can be written as 1/1), then 2x must be rational because rational minus rational yields a rational result.

Now, assuming 2x is rational, we can express it as a fraction [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex], with a and b being integers and b non-zero. Since the multiplication of a rational number by an integer is also rational, and knowing that 2 is an integer, we can then say that x, which is  [tex]\frac{a}{2b}[/tex], is also rational. This is because we can express the result of  [tex]\frac{a}{2b}[/tex] with integers in the numerator and the denominator.

A mile-runner’s times for the mile are normally distributed with a mean of 4 min. 3 sec. (This would have to be expressed in decimal minutes -- 4.05 minutes), and a standard deviation of 2 seconds (0.0333333··· minutes (the three dots indicate a repeating decimal)). What is the probability that on a given run, the time will be 4 minutes or less?

Answers

Answer: 0.0668

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean : [tex]\mu=\text{4 min. 3 sec.=4.05 minutes}[/tex]

Standard deviation : [tex]\sigma = \text{2 seconds=0.033333 minutes }[/tex]

The formula to calculate z-score is given by :_

[tex]z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For x= 4 minutes  , we have

[tex]z=\dfrac{4-4.05}{0.03333}\approx-1.5[/tex]

The P-value = [tex]P(z\leq-1.5)=0.0668072\approx0.0668[/tex]

Hence, the probability that on a given run, the time will be 4 minutes or less = 0.0668

Final answer:

The probability that on a given run, the time will be 4 minutes or less is approximately 6.68%.

Explanation:

To find the probability that on a given run, the time will be 4 minutes or less, we need to calculate the z-score for 4 minutes and then use the standard normal distribution table to find the probability. The z-score can be calculated using the formula (x - mean) / standard deviation. In this case, the z-score is (4 - 4.05) / 0.0333333⋯ = -1.50. Looking up the z-score in the standard normal distribution table, we find that the probability is approximately 0.0668 or 6.68%.

How many equivalence relations are there on the set 1, 2, 3]?

Answers

Answer:

We need to find how many number of equivalence relations are on the set {1,2,3}

A relation is an equivalence relation if it is reflexive, transitive and symmetric.

equivalence relation R on {1,2,3}

1.For reflexive, it must contain (1,1),(2,2),(3,3)

2.For transitive, it must satisfy: if (x,y)∈R then (y,x)∈R

3. For symmetric, it must satisfy: if (x,y)∈R,(y,z)∈R then (x,z)∈R

Since (1,1),(2,2),(3,3) must be there is R, (1,2),(2,1),(2,3),(3,2),(1,3),(3,1). By symmetry,

we just need to count the number of ways in which we can use the pairs (1,2),(2,3),(1,3) to construct equivalence relations.

This is because if (1,2) is in the relation then (2,1) must be there in the relation.

the relation will be an equivalence relation if we use none of these pairs (1,2),(2,3),(1,3) . There is only one such relation: {(1,1),(2,2),(3,3)}

we can have three possible equivalence relations:

{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(1,2),(2,1)}

{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(1,3),(3,1)}

{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(2,3),(3,2)}

Final answer:

Equivalence relations on a set satisfy conditions of reflexivity, symmetry, and transitivity. The Bell number counts the number of partitions, or equivalence relations, on a set. Hence, for the set {1, 2, 3}, there are five equivalence relations.

Explanation:

The subject of this question relates to equivalence relations on a set which is an important topic in discrete mathematics and set theory. In simple terms, an equivalence relation is a relation on a set that equates certain pair of elements. In your set {1, 2, 3}, an equivalence relation must meet three conditions: reflexivity (each number is equal to itself), symmetry (if 1 is related to 2, then 2 is related to 1), and transitivity (if 1 is related to 2 and 2 is related to 3, then 1 is related to 3).

To find the number of equivalence relations on a set, we refer to the Bell number. Bell numbers count the number of partitions of a set. For a set with 3 elements like yours, the third Bell number gives the number of equivalence relations, which is 5. Therefore, there are 5 equivalence relations on the set {1, 2, 3}.

Answers

Answer:

Part a) The amount of hardwood floor is [tex]480\ ft^{2}[/tex]

Part b) The amount of trim to buy is [tex]78\ ft[/tex]

Part c) The amount of paintable space is [tex]1,297\ ft^{2}[/tex]

Part d) The amount of paint needed is [tex]7.41\ gallons[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) You want to put down hard wood floors in your master bedroom. How much hard wood flooring would you need to buy?

Find the area of the floor

[tex]A=(10+5+3)(10+5+10)+(2+6+2)(3)[/tex]

[tex]A=(18)(25)+(10)(3)[/tex]    

[tex]A=480\ ft^{2}[/tex]

Part b) You also want to put a trim on the bottom of each wall, except in front of the french doors, sliding doors, or hallway. How much trim should you buy?  

step 1

Find the perimeter of the  master bedroom

[tex]P=2(25)+2(18)+2(3)[/tex]

[tex]P=50+36+6[/tex]

[tex]P=92\ ft[/tex]

step 2

Subtract the front of the french doors, sliding doors and hallway from the perimeter

[tex]92-(5+6+3)=78\ ft[/tex]

Part c) You want to paint your new bedroom. How much paintable space is there in the room?

step 1

Find the area of the ceiling

we know that

The area of the floor is equal to the area of the ceiling

so

The area of the ceiling is equal to [tex]A=480\ ft^{2}[/tex]

step 2

Find the area of the walls

Multiply the perimeter by the height

[tex]92*10=920\ ft^{2}[/tex]  

step 3

Subtract 73 square feet of surface that does not get painted (windows and sliding doors ) and the area of the hallway

The amount of paintable space is equal to

[tex]A=480+920-73-3(10)=1,297\ ft^{2}[/tex]

Part d) How many gallons of paint would you need to buy?

we know that

One gallon of paint covers 350 square feet

Multiply the area by two (because You want to put on two coats of paint on every paintable surface)

so

[tex]1,297*(2)=2,594\ ft^{2}[/tex]

using proportion

[tex]1/350=x/2,594[/tex]

[tex]x=2,594/350[/tex]

[tex]x=7.41\ gallons[/tex]

. Two algorithms takes n 2 days and 2 n seconds respectively, to solve an instance of size n. What is the size of the smallest instance on which the former algorithm outperforms the latter algorithm? Approximately how long does such an instance take to solve?

Answers

Answer:

n = 11 day

Step-by-step explanation:

n^2 is less than 2^n for n < 2 and for n > 4. The smallest size of n that is of interest is n=1. For that, n^2 = 1^1 = 1.

The n^2 algorithm will outperform the 2^n algorithm for n = 1. That problem size will take 1 day to solve.

_____

Please note that there are no algebraic methods for solving an inequality of the form x^2 < 2^x. We have solved it using a graphing calculator.

Final answer:

The smallest instance size where the n² days algorithm outperforms the 2n seconds algorithm is n=43200. However, it's not practical, as this size leads to a computation time of approximately 1.86496 × 10⁹ days for the first algorithm, showing that for any realistic value of n, the second algorithm is more efficient.

Explanation:

The student's question is about the comparison of the performance of two different algorithms. Specifically, the question asks at what size the algorithm, which takes n² days to solve an instance of size n, will outperform the 2n seconds algorithm.

To determine the smallest instance size at which the first algorithm outperforms the second, we must set the two times equal and solve for n. Let's denote the time taken by the first algorithm as T1 and the second algorithm as T2, where T1 = n² days and T2 = 2n seconds. We should convert both times to a common unit, which typically is seconds, as follows:

1 day = 24 hours = 86400 seconds

T1 in seconds: n²  times 86400 seconds/day

T2 is already in seconds: 2n seconds

Now equate the two to find the smallest n:

n²  times 86400 = 2n

n²  times 86400 / 2 = n

n = 86400 / 2 = 43200

Thus, the smallest instance size n is 43200. To find how long this instance takes to solve by the first algorithm:

T1 = 43200² days

T1 ≈ 1.86496 × 109 days

This is impractically large, indicating that for any realistic value of n, the second algorithm is more efficient.

The weights of broilers (commercially raised chickens) are approximately normally distributed with mean 1387 grams and standard deviation 161 grams. What is the probability that a randomly selected broiler weighs more than 1,454 grams?

Answers

Answer:

Probability that a randomly selected broiler weighs more than 1454 g is 0.3372 or 34% (approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weights of Broilers are normally distributed.

Mean = 1387 g

Standard Deviation = 161 g

To find: Probability that a randomly selected broiler weighs more than 1454 g.

we have ,

[tex]Mean,\,\mu=1387[/tex]

[tex]Standard\,deviation,\,\sigma=161[/tex]

X = 1454

We use z-score to find this probability.

we know that

[tex]z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]z=\frac{1454-1387}{161}=0.416=0.42[/tex]

P( z = 0.42 ) = 0.6628   (from z-score table)

Thus, P( X ≥ 1454 ) = P( z ≥ 0.42 ) = 1 - 0.6628 =  0.3372

Therefore, Probability that a randomly selected broiler weighs more than 1454 g is 0.3372 or 34% (approx.)

Suppose that the price p​ (in dollars) and the weekly sales x​ (in thousands of​ units) of a certain commodity satisfy the demand equation 4p cubedplusx squaredequals38 comma 400. Determine the rate at which sales are changing at a time when xequals80​, pequals20​, and the price is falling at the rate of ​$.20 per week.

Answers

Answer:

  sales are increasing at the rate of 6000 units per week

Step-by-step explanation:

Your demand equation appears to be ...

  4p³ +x² =38400

Then differentiation gives ...

  12p²·p' +2x·x' = 0

Solving for x', we get ...

  x' = -6p²·p'/x

Filling in the given values, we find the rate of change of sales to be ...

  x' = -6(20²)(-0.20/wk)/80 = 6/wk . . . . . in thousands of units/wk

Sales are increasing at the rate of 6000 units per week.

Suppose you have just received a shipment of 16 modems. Although you​ don't know​ this, 4 of the modems are defective. To determine whether you will accept the​ shipment, you randomly select 5 modems and test them. If all 5 modems​ work, you accept the shipment.​ Otherwise, the shipment is rejected. What is the probability of accepting the​ shipment?

Answers

[tex]|\Omega|={_{16}C_5}=\dfrac{16!}{5!11!}=\dfrac{12\cdot13\cdot14\cdot15\cdot16}{120}=4368\\|A|={_{12}C_5}=\dfrac{12!}{5!7!}=\dfrac{8\cdot9\cdot10\cdot11\cdot12}{120}=792\\\\P(A)=\dfrac{792}{4368}=\dfrac{33}{182}\approx18\%[/tex]

The probability of the event is defined as the ratio of the number of cases favourable to an occurrence, and the further calculation can be defined as follows:

4 of the 16 modems are defective, while the remaining 12 are not.

P(accepting shipment) = P (all 5 modems work)

[tex]\bold{^{12}C_{5}}[/tex] methods could be used to choose 5 non-defective modems from a pool of 12 non-defective modems.

[tex]\to \bold{^{12}C_{5} = \frac{12!}{ (12 -5)! \times 5! }}[/tex]

             [tex]\bold{ = \frac{12!}{ 7! \times 5!}}\\\\\bold{ = \frac{12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7!}{ 7! \times 5!}}\\\\\bold{ = \frac{12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8}{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}}\\\\\bold{ =11 \times 9 \times 8}\\\\\bold{=792}[/tex]

The total number of methods to choose 5 modems from a pool of 16 modems is [tex]\bold{^{16}C_{5}}[/tex].

[tex]\to \bold{^{16}C_{5} = \frac{16!}{ (16 -5)! \times 5! }}[/tex]

             [tex]\bold{ = \frac{16!}{ 11! \times 5!}}\\\\\bold{ = \frac{16 \times 15 \times 14 \times 13 \times 12 \times 11 !}{ 11! \times 5!}}\\\\\bold{ = \frac{16 \times 15 \times 14 \times 13 \times 12}{ 5!}}\\\\\bold{ = \frac{16 \times 15 \times 14 \times 13 \times 12}{ 5\times 4\times 3 \times 2 \times 1}}\\\\\bold{ = 8 \times 3 \times 14 \times 13 }\\\\\bold{ = 4368 }\\\\[/tex]

P(accepting shipment) = P(all 5 modems work):

[tex]= \bold{\frac{^{12}C_5}{ ^{16}C_{5}}}[/tex]

[tex]\bold{=\frac{792}{4368}}\\\\\bold{=0.18131}\\\\\bold{=0.18131 \times 100= 18.131 \approx 18.131\%}\\\\[/tex]

Therefore, the final answer is "18.131%".

A programmer plans to develop a new software system. In planning for the operating system that he will use, he needs to estimate the percentage of computers that use a new operating system. How many computers must be surveyed in order to be 95% confident that his estimate is in error by no more than two percentage points? a)Assume that nothing is known about the percentage of computers with new operating systems.

Answers

Answer:

n = 1067

Step-by-step explanation:

Since nothing is known, we would assume that 50% of the computers use the new operating system.

So, standard error = 0.5/SQRT(n)

Z-value for a 95% CI = 1.9596

So, margin of error = 1.9596 x 0.5 / SQRT(n) = 0.03

So, n = 1067 (approx.)

This will be your approximate answer : n = 1067

Answer: 2401

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the sample size is given by :-

[tex]n= p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2[/tex]

, where p = prior population proportion.

[tex]z_{\alpha/2}[/tex] = Two -tailed z-value for [tex]{\alpha[/tex]

E= Margin of error.

As per given , we have

Confidence level : [tex]1-\alpha=0.95[/tex]

⇒[tex]\alpha=1-0.95=0.05[/tex]

Two -tailed z-value for [tex]\alpha=0.05 : z_{\alpha/2}=1.96[/tex]

E= 2%=0.02

We assume that nothing is known about the percentage of computers with new operating systems.

Let us take p=0.5  [we take p= 0.5 if prior estimate of proportion is unknown.]

Required sample size will be :-

[tex]n= 0.5(1-0.5)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.02})^2\\\\ 0.25(98)^2=2401[/tex]

Hence, the number of computer must be surveyed = 2401

The equation P=31+1.75w models the relation between the amount of Tuyet’s monthly water bill payment, P, in dollars, and the number of units of water, w, used. Find Tuyet’s payment for a month when 12 units of water are used.

Answers

Answer: [tex]P = \$\ 52[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation [tex]P = 31 + 1.75w[/tex] where P represents the payment and w represents the amount of water used.

To calculate the monthly payment that corresponds to 12 units of water you must do [tex]w = 12[/tex] in the main equation and solve for the variable P.

[tex]P = 31 + 1.75w[/tex]

[tex]P = 31 + 1.75(12)[/tex]

[tex]P = 31 + 21[/tex]

[tex]P = 52[/tex]

Final answer:

Tuyet's payment for a month when 12 units of water are used is $52.

Explanation:

To find Tuyet's payment for a month when 12 units of water are used, we can substitute 12 for 'w' in the equation P = 31 + 1.75w and solve for P.

P = 31 + 1.75(12)

P = 31 + 21

P = 52

Therefore, Tuyet's payment for a month when 12 units of water are used is $52.
