The governor of state a earns $50,935 more than the governor of state b. If the total salaries is $287,225. Find the salaries for both

Answers

a + b = 287,225
a = b + 50,935

b + 50,935 + b = 287,225
2b + 50,935 = 287,225
2b = 287,225 - 50,935
2b = 236,290
b = 236,290/2
b = 118,145 <=== what governor b earns

walt is mixing fruit punch for the party. he combines 1 gallon 2 quarts 3 pints of orange juice , 1 gallon 3 quarts 7 pints of pineapple juice, and 1 gallon 3 quarts 3 pints of ginger ale. what is the total liquid measure of the punch ?

Answers

Answer:
3 gallon 8 quarts 13 pints or
6 gallon 2 quarts 1 pints

In this question, there are orange juice, pineapple juice, and ginger ale mixed to make the fruit punch. All the juice is using gallon, quarts and pints unit for their volume. Since the unit is already same, you just need to add them first then convert it into the bigger unit. The first calculation would be:

1 gallon 2 quarts 3 pints +
1 gallon 3 quarts 7 pints +
1 gallon 3 quarts 3 pints =
3 gallon 8 quarts 13 pints

If you need to change the volume unit into the biggest unit(gallon) then we need to start from changing pints into quarts. A quarts equal 2 pints, then the calculation would be: 3 gallons + 8 quarts + (13 pints / 2 quarts/pints)= 3 gallon + 14 quarts + 1 pints

Next, change the quarts to the gallon with ratio 4 quarts are equal to 1 gallon. The result would be: 3 gallons + (14 quarts / 4 quarts/gallon) + 1 pints = 6 gallon 2 quarts 1 pints

Draw one card at random from a standard deck of cards. the sample space s is the collection of the 52 cards. assume that the probability set function assigns 1/52 to each of the 52 outcomes. let a = {x: x is a jack, queen, or king}, b = {x: x is a 9, 10, or jack and x is red}, c = {x: x is a club}, d = {x: x is a diamond, a heart, or a spade}.

Answers

The probability is a ratio of the possible events to the total events. The total is 52 cards, so the denominator is 52. The individual properties of the specific cards are the following:

Any face or number cards is 4/52, because there are 4 cards for each symbol. On the other hand, each symbol like heart, diamond, club or spade would each have a probability of 13/52 (counting numbers 2 to 10, Ace card, and the 3 face cards). Also, there are 26 each of red and black cards. Furthermore, the words 'or' and 'and' are hint words. When you see 'or', you have to add their individual probabilities. If you see the word 'and', you'll have to multiply them. With that said, the solution is as follows:

a.) P = 4/52 + 4/52 + 4/52 = 3/13
b.) P = (13/52 + 13/52 + 4/52)(26/52) = 15/52
c.) P = 13/52
d.) P = 13/52 + 13/52 + 13/52 = 3/4

We have P(A) = 3/13, P(A ∩ B) = 3/52, P(A ∪ B) = 17/52, P(C ∪ D) = 1, and P(C ∩ D) = 0.

(a) To find P(A), we first determine the number of outcomes in A, which consists of 12 cards (4 jacks, 4 queens, and 4 kings).

Since there are 52 cards in total, P(A) = 12/52 = 3/13.

(b) For P(A ∩ B), we look for the cards that are both in A and B.

There are 3 such cards (jack of hearts, jack of diamonds, and jack of hearts).

So, P(A ∩ B) = 3/52.

(c) To find P(A ∪ B), we combine the outcomes in sets A and B, but we avoid double-counting the jacks.

So, A ∪ B consists of 12 cards from A and 5 cards from B, totaling 17 cards.

Hence, P(A ∪ B) = 17/52.

(d) P(C ∪ D) includes all cards that are clubs, diamonds, hearts, or spades.

Since all cards fall into these categories, P(C ∪ D) = 1.

(e) P(C ∩ D) represents the probability of drawing a card that is both a club and either a diamond, heart, or spade.

Since clubs do not intersect with these suits, P(C ∩ D) = 0.

Complete Question:

Draw one card at random from a standard deck of cards. The sample space S is the collection of the 52 cards. Assume that the probability set function assigns 1/52 to each of the 52 outcomes.

Let

A = {x: x is a jack, queen, or king},

B = {x: x is a 9, 10, or jack and x is red},

C = {x: x is a club},

D = {x: x is a diamond, a heart, or a spade}.

Find (a) P(A), (b) P(A ∩ B), (c) P(A ∪ B), (d) P(C ∪ D), and (e) P(C ∩ D).

how do you evaluate the expression |4/13|

Answers

Hi there!

First, you need to find the quotient of 4 and 13, obviously.

4/13 is equal to roughly 0.308.

Those grouping symbols around it tell you that you need to find the absolute value.

Absolute value is how far away a number is from 0 on a number line. 3, for example has a absolute value of 3, and -6 has an absolute value of 6.

So, the absolute value of 4/13 is about 0.308.

An automotive repair center charges $45 for any part of the first hour of labor, and $25 for any part of each additional hour. Which of the following is a correct cost?
A. C(t) = 95 for 1 < x ≤ 2
B. C(t) = 95 for 2 < x ≤ 3
C. C(t) = 120 for 2 < x ≤ 3
D. C(t) = 120 for 4 < x ≤ 5

Answers

To answer this question, it is easier to make a list of the repair cost based on the hour of labor. The first hour is $45 then after that $25/hour. Then the list would look like 

0-1 h= $45
1-2h= $70     ($45 +1*$25)
2-3h= $95    ($45 +2*$25)
3-4h= $120   ($45 +3*$25)

Looking at the list, the answer should be
B. C(t) = 95 for 2 < x ≤ 3

B. if lucinda has only $18 to spend and the price of kewpie dolls and the price of beanie babies are both $6, how many of each would lucinda buy if she were rational? 0 kewpie dolls and 3 beanie babies 3 kewpie dolls and 0 beanie babies 2 kewpie dolls and 1 beanie baby 1 kewpie doll and 2 beanie babies

Answers

Given the table below comparing the marginal benefit Lucinda gets from Kewpie dolls and Beanie Babies.

[tex]\begin{tabular} {|p {2cm}|p {2cm}|p {2cm}|p {2cm}|} \multicolumn {4} {|c|} {Lucinda's Kewpie Doll and Beanie Baby Marginal Benefits}\\[1ex] \multicolumn {2} {|c|} {Kewpie Dolls}&\multicolumn {2} {|c|} {Beanie Babies}\\[1ex] 1&\$15.00&1&\$12.00\\ 2&\$12.00&2&\$10.00\\ 3&\$9.00&3&\$8.00\\ 4&\$6.00&4&\$6.00\\ 5&\$3.00&5&\$4.00\\ 6&\$0.00&6&\$2.00\\ \end{tabular}[/tex]

If lucinda has only $18 to spend and the price of kewpie dolls and the price of beanie babies are both $6,

Lucinda will buy the combination for which marginal benefit is the same.

Therefore, Lucinda will buy 2 kewpie dolls and 1 beanie baby, if she were rational.

Lucinda can rationally choose to buy 0 Kewpie dolls and 3 Beanie Babies, 3 Kewpie dolls and 0 Beanie Babies, 2 Kewpie dolls and 1 Beanie Baby, or 1 Kewpie doll and 2 Beanie Babies, as all combinations fit within her $18 budget. The prices for each are $6.

In order to determine how many Kewpie dolls and Beanie Babies Lucinda can buy, we need to explore her budget constraint. Lucinda has $18 to spend, and the prices of both Kewpie dolls and Beanie Babies are $6 each. We can calculate the maximum possible combinations of each that fit within her budget.

If Lucinda buys 0 Kewpie dolls and 3 Beanie Babies, she spends $0 + $18 = $18.If Lucinda buys 3 Kewpie dolls and 0 Beanie Babies, she spends $18 + $0 = $18.If Lucinda buys 2 Kewpie dolls and 1 Beanie Baby, she spends $12 + $6 = $18.If Lucinda buys 1 Kewpie doll and 2 Beanie Babies, she spends $6 + $12 = $18.

All these combinations maximize her budget, so any of these options could be rational depending on her preference. Therefore, Lucinda could rationally choose to buy any of the following combinations: 0 Kewpie dolls and 3 Beanie Babies, 3 Kewpie dolls and 0 Beanie Babies, 2 Kewpie dolls and 1 Beanie Baby, or 1 Kewpie doll and 2 Beanie Babies.

Answers

We will use the elimination by addition/subtraction method to solve for y:

Given   2x - 2y = -20 and -2x + 4y = 14, add the second equation to the first:

 2x - 2y = -20 
 -2x + 4y = 14
----------------------------------------------
          2y   = -6.  Solving for y:  y = -3.

Find x by subst. y=-3 into either of the given equations.

If we choose the first equation, then it becomes 2x - 2(-3) = -20

Solve this for x:  2x + 6 = -20, or 2x = -26, or x = -13.

The solution is (-13,-3).
