According to a posting on a website subsequent to the death of a child who bit into a peanut, a certain study found that 4% of children younger than 18 in the United States have at least one food allergy. Among those with food allergies, about 43% had a history of severe reaction. (a) If a child younger than 18 is randomly selected, what is the probability that he or she has at least one food allergy and a history of severe reaction

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0172 = 1.72% probability that he or she has at least one food allergy and a history of severe reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given these following probabilities:

4% probability of that a child younger than 18 in the United States has at least one food allergy.

If a child has at least one food allergy, 43% probability of having a history of severe reaction.

If a child younger than 18 is randomly selected, what is the probability that he or she has at least one food allergy and a history of severe reaction

The multiplication of the probabilities. So

0.04*0.43 = 0.0172

0.0172 = 1.72% probability that he or she has at least one food allergy and a history of severe reaction

The number of cupcakes sold that day was chocolate flavored will be 54.

What is the percentage?

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A quarter of 100 can be used to express the ratio. Per 100 is what the term percent signifies. The symbol '%' is used to symbolize it.

A bakery sold a total of 120 cupcakes in a day, and 45% of them were chocolate flavored.

Then the number of cupcakes sold that day were chocolate flavored will be

Let x be the number of the cupcakes sold that day that was chocolate flavored.

x = 45% of 120

x = 0.45 × 120

x = 54

Thus, the number of cupcakes sold that day was chocolate flavored will be 54.

t-shirts for $2 and shorts for $4. the total sales were $600. they sold four times more tshirts than shorts how many tshirts and shorts did they sell?​

Answers

Answer:

T-shirts: 200

Shorts: 50

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, set up an equation using two variables to represent the number of t-shirts and shorts sold.  Let x = t-shirts sold. Let y = shorts sold.  2x + 4y = 600.    We know that x will be 4 times greater than y, so we can plug in some guesses that seem reasonable and use the equation to test our theories.  My first guess was 50 shorts, which by luck was the correct answer.  These problems can be tricky, but setting up an equation can prove to be a great help.

  P = 72.6 cm

The perimeter of the shape is 72.6 cm.

* You may be able to visualize this if you imagine the bottom (top) of the notch translated out (down) to the edge of the rectangle.

A frame around a family portrait has a perimeter of 94 inches. The length of the frame is 7 inches less than twice the width. Find the length and width of the frame.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l be the length and w be the width of the frame.

We have 2(l + w) = 94 and l = 2w - 7.

Therefore 2[(2w - 7) + w] = 94.

=> 3w - 7 = 47

=> 3w = 54

=> w = 18

l = 2(18) - 7 = 36 - 7 = 29

Hence the length of the frame is 29in and the width of the frame is 18in.

The owner of a luxury motor yacht that sails among the 4000 Greek islands charges $460 per person per day if exactly 20 people sign up for the cruise. However, if more than 20 people (up to the maximum capacity of 90) sign up for the cruise, then each fare is reduced by $7 per day for each additional passenger. Assume at least 20 people sign up for the cruise, and let x denote the number of passengers above 20. (a) Find a function R giving the revenue per day realized from the charter. R(x)

Answers

Answer:

R(x) = (460 * 7x)*(20+ x)

Step-by-step explanation:

If exactly 20 people sign up :

Charge per person = $460

For passengers after 20:

At number of passengers = 20 ;

Cost = (fee * discount * number of additional passesengers) * (20 + Number of additional passengers

Let number of additional passengers after 20 = x

R(x) = ($460 * $7x) * (20 + x)

Hence,

R(x) = (460 * 7x)*(20+ x)

Given that the function g is defined by the rule g(x)=3-2x,determine the following

g(a)=

Answers

Answer:

The value of g(a) is:

g(a) = 3 - 2a

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

As the function g(x) is given by

[tex]g(x)=3-2x[/tex]

To determine

g(a) = ?

In order to determine g(a),

substitute x = a in the function g(x) = 3 - 2x

g(x) = 3 - 2x

g(a) = 3 - 2(a)

g(a) = 3 - 2a

Therefore, the value of g(a) is:

g(a) = 3 - 2a

Which of the following points below represents (- 2, - (5pi)/4) the polar grid?

Answers

Answer:

Well, when we have a point in rectangular coordinates (x, y) and we want to write it in polar coordinates (r, θ) the rule we use is:

r = √(x^2 + y^2)

θ = Atg(Iy/xI) + 90°*(n - 1)

where n is number of the quadrant where our point is.

For example, if we are on the second quadrant, we use n = 2.

Now, if instead, we have the point (r, θ) and we want to rewrite it in rectangular coordinates, then the transformation is:

x = r*cos(θ)

y = r*sin(θ)

Now we have the point (- 2, -(5pi)/4) because the first part is negative, this number can not be in polar coordinates (r can not be negative) then we have:

x = -2

y = -(5*pi)/4

Using the first relation, we can find that:

r = √( (-2)^2 + (-5*3.14/4)^2) = 4.4

(rememer that the point (- 2, -(5pi)/4) is on the third quadrant, then we will use n = 3.)

θ = Atg(-(5*pi)/4/-2) + 90°*(3 - 1)= Atg((5*pi)/2) + 180° = 82.7° + 180° = 262.7°

Then the point that represents  (- 2, - (5pi)/4) in polar coordinates is the point:

(4.4, 262.7°)

If instead of degrees, the angle part is written in radians, we have:

180° = 3.14 radians.

262.7° = x radians.

then:

x/3.14 = (262.7)/180

x =  3.14*(262.7)/180 = 4.58 radians.

then the point will be:

(4.4, 4.58 radians)

The price of a computer is reduced by 17.5%. The reduced price is £264 by how much is the price reduced

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

100%-17.5%= 82.5%

82.5% (divide) 82.5%= 1%

so (1% of the orginal price)=

£264 (divide) 82.5%= £320= original price

The price of the computer is reduced by £56 which is 17.5% of £320.

What is the percentage?

A percentage is a value per hundredth. Percentages can be converted into decimals and fractions by dividing the percentage value by a hundred.

Given, The price of a computer is reduced by 17.5% and the reduced price is £264.

Let the original price be '£x'.

So, (100 - 17.5)% = 82.5% of '£x' is  £264.

(82.5/100)×x = 264.

0.825x = 264.

x = 264/0.825.

x =  £320.

So, The price reduced is (320 - 264) =  £56.

A quadratic function is described by the equation f(x) = (x - 3) ^ 2 Which statement about the graph of the function is true?
A The only zero of the function is 3 which is where the graph of the function intersects the x-axis
В. The only zero of the function is 3 which is where the graph of the function intersects the y-axis.
C.The only zero of the function is , which is where the graph of the function intersects the x-axis.
D.The only zero of the function is is where the graph of the function intersects the y-axis .

Answers

Answer: A) The only zero of the function is 3 which is where the graph of the function intersects the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, a quadratic function which has roots x = a, and x = b, can be written as:

p(x) = A*(x - a)*(x - b)

Where A is the leading coefficient. This is the factorized form of a quadratic.

We have the function:

f(x) = (x - 3)^2

Now, we could rewrite this as:

f(x) = (x - 3)*(x - 3) = 1*(x - 3)*(x - 3)

Then we wrote f(x) in its factorized form, from this, we can see that the roots of the function are x = 3, and x = 3 (we have the same root two times)

Then the only root of f(x) is x = 3.

Remember that a root (also called a zero) is the value of x where the function intersects the x-axis. then the correct option here is:

A) The only zero of the function is 3 which is where the graph of the function intersects the x-axis
