A video store specializes in three types of movies: children's, American West, and horror. It's known that:
60% of children's movies plus 50% of westerns account for 30% of all movies.
20% of children's movies plus 60% of westerns plus 60% of horror movies represent half of all movies.

Answers

Answer 1

X, y, z denote children's movies, western movies, and horror movies, respectively. The related system of equations is formed and solved.

[tex]\left\{\begin{matrix} \qquad\qquad\ \dfrac{60}{100}x + \dfrac{50}{100}y =\dfrac{30}{100}(x+y+z)\\ \dfrac{20}{100}x+ \dfrac{60}{100}y+ \dfrac{60}{100}z= \dfrac{1}{2}(x+y+z) \\ \ \ \ x+100=y \end{matrix} \right.\[/tex]

Simplifying the system of equations, we have

[tex]\left\{\begin{matrix} 3x + 2y -3z=0\\ -3x+ y+ z= 0 \\ \ \ \ x+100=y \end{matrix} \right.\ \ \Longrightarrow \ \left\{\begin{matrix} 5x-3z=-200\\ -2x+ z= -100 \end{matrix} \right.\[/tex]

[tex]\ \ \ 5x-3z=-200\\\underline{-6x+3z=-300} \ \Rightarrow \ x=500\\\ \ -x+0= \ 500[/tex]

                                       [tex]y&=500+100=600\\ z&=3(500)-600=900[/tex]

The video store has 500 children's movies, 600 westerns and 900 horror movies.

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 angles of a triangle sum to 180 degrees, so:

if one angle is x degrres the other id 2x, and:

x + 2x + 60 = 180

3x = 180 - 60 = 120

x = 120/3 = 40

So m<B = 40 and m < A = 80 degrees.

Events A and B are independent. Let P(B)=0.4 and P(A and B)=0.13. Find P(A). Write your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest thousandth.

Answers

The probability value represented by P(A) is 0.325

How to determine the probability value P(A)?

The given parameters are:

P(B) = 0.4

P(A and B) = 0.13

Given that the events A and B are independent, we have:

P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)

So, we have:

0.13 = P(A) * 0.4

Divide both sides by 0.4

P(A) = 0.325

Hence, the probability value of P(A) is 0.325

All items in a clothing store are on sale for the same percentage off the original price.

•The original price of a pair of pants is $20.
• The sale price of the pants is $15
• The original price of a shirt is $16

Enter the sale price, in dollars, of the shirt ​

Answers

Answer:

$12 is the sale price of shirt.

Explanation:

Calculate the percentage of sale

[tex]\sf \rightarrow \sf \dfrac{15}{20} *100[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow \sf 75 \%[/tex]

Then find the sale price of shirt

original price * percentage of sale

$16 * 75%

$12

Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1

First, calculate the sale discount as a percentage using the given information about the pants.

$20 = Original price of pants$15 = Sale price of pants

[tex]\sf percent\:change=\dfrac{|final\:value-initial\:value|}{initial\:value} \times 100[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf percent\:change=\dfrac{|15-20|}{20} \times 100=25\%[/tex]

Therefore, the clothes are on sale with a 25% discount.

This means they are 75% of the original sale price, as 100% - 25% = 75%

To find the sale price of the shirt, we simply need to find 75% of the original selling price of the shirt:

  75% of $16

= 0.75 × $16

= $12

Method 2

Using ratios of original price : sale price, where x is the sale price of the shirt:

pants → 20 : 15

shirt → 16 : x

Therefore, as the ratios are the same:

   20 : 15 = 16 : x

⇒ 20/15 = 16/x

⇒ 20x = 16 · 15

⇒ 20x = 240

⇒ x = 240 ÷ 20

⇒ x = 12

15 males and 20 females would maximize the total number of animals

How to determine the number of males and females?

The table is given as:

                           Males      Females    Time available

Environment a    20 min      25 min       800 min

Environment b    20 min      15 min       600 min

Represent the male with x and the female with y.

The time available is limited i.e. ≤

So, the constraints are:

20x + 25y ≤ 800

20x + 15y ≤ 600

Solve the above system of inequalities graphically (see attachment)

(x, y) = (15,20)

Hence, 15 males and 20 females would maximize the total number of animals

I need help to find the equation and measures pls help me.

Answer:

Equation: 2x + x = 180

x = 60

∠GFH = 120

∠CBD = 60

Step by step:

Use 2x + x = 180 because the angles are on a straight line meaning they have a sum of 180:

2x + x = 180

3x = 180

3x/3 = 180/3

x = 60

Now just substitute:

∠CBD = x = 60

∠GFH = 2x = 120
