Benjamin finds some nickels and quarters under the couch cushions. How many
coins does he have if he has 8 nickels and 12 quarters? How many coins does he have
if he has a nickels and y quarters?

Answers

Answer 1
He has 20 coins and a total of $3.40
Answer 2

Benjamin has 340 cents or $3.40.

What is Proportion?

Proportion in Mathematics is an equation where two or more ratios are made to be equal.

If a : b = c : d, then we can write a/b = c/d

We know that,

1 nickel = 5 cents

8 nickel = x cents

Using ratio and proportion,

1 : 5 = 8 : x

x = 8 × 5 = 40 cents

Similarly,

1 quarter = 25 cents

12 quarters = 12 × 25 = 300 cents

Total cents Benjamin has = 300 + 40 = 340 cents = $3.40

Hence, Benjamin has a total of $3.40.

Answers

Profit percentage for weaver after selling mat is equals to 140%.

What is percentage ?

" Percentage is defined as the hundredth part of the whole given quantity. It is represented by symbol %."

Formula used

Profit% = [tex](\frac{Profit }{cost price} )[/tex]×   100

According to the question,

Given,

Cost price of bundle of grass = $50.00

Number of mats made = 8

Selling price of each mat = $15.00

Therefore,

Selling price of 8 mats = 15 × 8

                                     = $120

Selling price > Cost price

Therefore,

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

         = 120 - 50

         = $70

Substitute the value in the formula to get profit percentage we get,

Profit% = [tex]\frac{70}{50}[/tex] ×100

            = 140%

Hence, profit percentage for weaver after selling mat is equals to 140%.

What is simple interest?

We have:

Jackie decided to open a restaurant. She borrowed 25000 for 5 years. After 5 years, she had paid back 35000.

We know the formula for simple interest is:

A = p(1 + rt)

We have A(final amount) = 35000

P(initial amount0 = 25000

t(time)  = 5 years

35000 = 25000(1 + 5r)

1.4 = 1 + 5r

0.4 = 5r

r = 0.08 or

r = 8%

b) A trader bought ar bags of rice at a cost, c= 24x+103 and sold them at a price.
x = 33x-x^2/20

(1)
Find the expression for the profit.
(i) If 20 bags of rice were sold, calculate the percentage profit.

Answers

The expression for the profit is -x^2/30 + 9x - 103 and the percentage profit on 20 bags of rice is 11.1%

How to determine the profit expression?

The cost and the selling price are given as:

C(x) = 24x + 103

S(x) = 33x - x^2/30

The profit is calculated using:

P(x) = S(x) - C(x)

This gives

P(x) = 33x - x^2/30 - 24x - 103

Evaluate the like terms

P(x) = -x^2/30 + 9x - 103

Hence, the expression for the profit is -x^2/30 + 9x - 103

The percentage profit

When x = 20, we have:

Cost: C(20) = 24 * 20 + 103 = 583

Profit: P(20) = -(20)^2/30 + 9(20) - 103 = 64.67

The percentage profit is then calculated as:

Percentage = P(x)/C(x) * 100%

This gives

Percentage = 64.67/583 * 100%

Evaluate

Percentage = 11.1%

Hence, the percentage profit on 20 bags of rice is 11.1%

Find the APR, rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent (one decimal place) for the loan. Purchase a living room set for $4,900 at 8% add-on interest for 4 years. Enter only the number without % sign.

Answers

The annual percent rate(APR) to purchase a living room set for $4,900 at 8% add-on interest for 4 years is 8. 6

How to calculate the annual interest rate

Using the formula

APR = ((Interest + Fees / Loan amount) / Number of days in loan term)) x 365 x 100

Note that Interest expense = Original amount / interest rate

Interest amount = $4, 900

Rate = 8% = 0. 08

Interest expense = $4, 900× 0. 08 = $392

Loan amount is also the principal amount ,  P = I / (RT)

where I is Interest Amount, R is Rate of Interest and T is Time Period.

Principal amount = $4, 900 ÷ 0. 08 × 4 = $4, 900 ÷ 0.32 = $ 15,313. 5

Substitute the values into the formula for APR

APR = [tex]\frac{392+ 4900}{15312.5} / 1460 * 365* 100[/tex]

APR = [tex]0.345 / 1460 *365*100[/tex]

APR = [tex]2. 36* 10^-4 *365* 100[/tex]

A shipment of 50,000 transistors arrives at a manufacturing plant. The quality control engineer at the plant obtains a random sample of 500 resistors and will reject the entire shipment if 10 or more of the resistors are defective. Suppose that 4% of the resistors in the whole shipment are defective. What is the probability the engineer accepts the shipment? Do you believe the acceptance policy of the engineer is sound?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

remember, the number of possible combinations to pick m out of n elements is C(n, m) = n!/(m! × (n-m)!)

50,000 transistors.

4% are defective, that means 4/100 = 1/25 of the whole.

so, the probability for one picked transistor to be defective is 1/25.

and the probability for it to work properly is then 1-1/25 = 24/25.

now, 500 picks are done.

to accept the shipment, 9 or less of these 500 picks must be defective.

the probability is then the sum of the probabilities to get

0 defective = (24/25)⁵⁰⁰

1 defective = (24/25)⁴⁹⁹×1/25 × C(500, 1)

= 24⁴⁹⁹/25⁵⁰⁰ × 500

2 defective = (24/25)⁴⁹⁸×1/25² × C(500, 2)

= 24⁴⁹⁸/25⁵⁰⁰ × 250×499

3 defective = 24⁴⁹⁷/25⁵⁰⁰ × C(500, 3) =

= 24⁴⁹⁷/25⁵⁰⁰ × 250×499×166

...

9 defective = 24⁴⁹¹/25⁵⁰⁰ × C(500, 9) =

= 24⁴⁹¹/25⁵⁰⁰ × 500×499×498×497×496×495×494×493×492×491 /

9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2 =

= 24⁴⁹¹/25⁵⁰⁰ × 50×499×166×71×31×55×494×493×41×491

best to use Excel or another form of spreadsheet to calculate all this and add it all up :

the probability that the engineer will accept the shipment is

0.004376634...

which makes sense, when you think about it, because 10 defect units in the 500 is only 2%. and since the whole shipment contains 4% defect units, it is highly unlikely that the random sample of 500 will pick so overwhelmingly the good pieces.

is the acceptance policy good ?

that completely depends on the circumstances.

what was the requirement about max. faulty rate in the first place ? if it was 2%, then the engineer's approach is basically sound.

it then further depends what are the costs resulting from a faulty unit ? that depends again on when the defect is usually found (still in manufacturing, or already out there at the customer site, or somewhere in between) and how critical the product containing such transistors is. e.g. recalls for products are extremely costly, while simply sorting the bad transistors out during the manufacturing process can be rather cheap. if there is a reliable and quick process to do so.

so, depending on repair, outage and even penalty costs it might be even advisable to have a harder limit during the sample test.

in other words - it depends on experience and the found distribution/probability curve, standard deviation, costs involved and other factors to define the best criteria for the sample test.
