An office receives a shipment of identical boxes containing office supplies. The shipment contains 6 boxes of pencils, 14 boxes of pens, and 16 boxes of paper. How many additional boxes of paper must be added to the original 36 boxes in order for the probability of randomly selecting a box of paper from this shipment to be exactly 1/2 ?
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
There are 6 boxes of pencils, 14 boxes of pens and 16 boxes of paper.
Total number of original boxes = 6 + 14 + 16 = 36
To find:
Number of additional boxes of paper to be added so that the probability of getting a paper box while selecting a random box becomes exactly [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex].
Solution:
First of all, let us have a look at the formula of probability:
Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as:
[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}[/tex]
Here, number of favorable cases will be equal to the number of paper boxes and
Total number of cases will be equal to the total number of boxes available.
Let us first calculate the original probability:
[tex]\frac{16}{36}\neq \frac{1}2[/tex]
If 1 paper box is added, then probability
[tex]\frac{17}{37}\neq \frac{1}2[/tex]
If 2 paper boxes are added, then probability
[tex]\frac{18}{38}\neq \frac{1}2[/tex]
If 3 paper boxes is added, then probability
[tex]\frac{19}{39} \neq \frac{1}2[/tex]
If 4 paper boxes is added, then probability
[tex]\frac{20}{40} = \frac{1}2[/tex]
Therefore, we need to add 4 paper boxes.
The probability of randomly selecting a box of paper from this shipment to be exactly 1/2 need to add 4 boxes.
Given that,
The shipment contains 6 boxes of pencils
And 14 boxes of pens, and 16 boxes of paper.
We have to find,
How many additional boxes of paper must be added to the original 36 boxes in order for the probability of randomly selecting a box of paper from this shipment to be exactly 1/2.
According to the question,
Total no. of original boxes = 6 + 14 + 16 = 36
Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as:
[tex]P(E) = \frac{Number \ of \ favourable \ cases}{Total \ number \ of \ cases }[/tex]
Here, number of favorable cases will be equal to the number of paper boxes,
Total number of cases will be equal to the total number of boxes available.
The probability of randomly selecting a box of paper from this shipment to be exactly 1/2 .
Let us first calculate the original probability:
[tex]\frac{16}{36} \neq \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
The probability of original paper boxes is not 1\2.
If 1 paper box is added, then probability,
[tex]\frac{17}{37} \neq \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
The probability of 1 paper boxes is not 1\2.
If 2 paper box is added, then probability,
[tex]\frac{18}{38} \neq \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
The probability of 2 paper boxes is not 1\2.
If 3 paper boxes are added, then probability,
[tex]\frac{19}{39} \neq \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
The probability of 3 paper boxes is not 1\2.
If 4 paper boxes is added, then probability,
[tex]\frac{20}{40} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
The probability of 4 paper boxes is 1\2.
Hence, The probability of randomly selecting a box of paper from this shipment to be exactly 1/2 need to add 4 boxes.

Erin opened a savings account with $50. She deposited $35.50 into the account every month until she had a total of $653.50. Which equation could be used to find m, the number of months she made deposits into the account?
653.5=50+35.5m
653.5+50=35.5m
653.5=50−35.5m
653.5÷50=35.5m
Answer:
The first answer choice(653.5=50+35.5m)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since she deposited 35.5 each month, that would be variable m, and there was already 50 in her account, making it a constant number 50.
Answer:
653.5 / 50 = 35.5
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to divide 653.5 by 50 to get the amount of months she made deposits into her account.

The length of the parallel sides of a trapezoid are 15 m and 25 m. If the perpendicular distance between the parallel sides is 10 m, what is the area of the trapezoid?
Answer:
Area of trapezoid = 200 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel side1 a= 15m
Parallel side2 b= 25m
Perpendicular distance h = 10 m
We need to find area of the trapezoid.
The formula used to find area of the trapezoid is: [tex]Area \ of \ trapezoid=\frac{a+b}{2}h[/tex]
Putting values and finding area of the trapezoid:
[tex]Area \ of \ trapezoid=\frac{a+b}{2}h\\Area \ of \ trapezoid=\frac{15+25}{2}\times 10\\Area \ of \ trapezoid=40\times5\\Area \ of \ trapezoid=200 \ m^2[/tex]
So, area of trapezoid = 200 m²

alberto knows that all the lines and rays are congruent to each other . he reasons that all segments must therefore be congruent to each other. alberto conclude that AB CD What is his error
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Alberto is correct in reasoning that all lines and rays are congruent to each other but incorrect in his reasoning about the line segments.
Line segments are equal in measure only when they are equal in length. They can have any orientation on a plane.
Since, AB = 3 units
CD = 4 units
Therefore, AB ≠ CD
Error in AB ≅ CD

Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract the selling price from the wholesale price.
86.40-72.00=14.4
Find the percentage of the difference from the wholesale price.

Answer:
a = -2/3, b = 8, c = -24y-intercept: (0, -24)x = -b/(2a) = -8/(2(-2/3)) = 8(4/3)x = 6DOWNMax: (6, 0)Vertex: (6, 0)Domain: {x | x ∈ ℝ}Range: {x | x ≤ 0}Step-by-step explanation:
To find a, b, c, compare the given function to ...
f(x) = ax² +bx +c
You will see that ...
a = -2/3b = 8c = -24The y-intercept is the function value for x=0. It is the constant term:
y-intercept = f(0) = -24
Use the above values of a, b to find the line of symmetry.
[tex]x = \dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-8}{2\cdot\dfrac{-2}{3}}=8\cdot\dfrac{3}{4}=6[/tex]
Per the calculation, the line of symmetry is ...
x = 6
The negative leading coefficient tells you the parabola opens DOWN.
Because it opens down, the vertex at (6, 0) is a Maximum.
As with any polynomial, the domain is "all real numbers", hence any x that is an element of Reals.
The range is all values below the vertex (including the vertex), so is ...
x ≤ 0

A school paid $248 for new basketballs and soccer balls. The number of basketballs purchased was 6 less than 3 times the number of soccer balls purchased. Basketballs cost $28 each and soccer balls cost $20 each. How many soccer balls did the school purchase?
Answer:
The school purchased 4 soccer balls.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total cost of basketball and soccer ball = $248
We are given: The number of basketballs purchased was 6 less than 3 times the number of soccer balls purchased.
We can write it as
x = Soccer Balls
3x-6 = Basketballs
Cost of each Soccer Ball = $20
Cost of each Basketball = $28
The equation will become
[tex]20(x)+28(3x-6)=248[/tex]
Solving the equation to find x
[tex]20(x)+28(3x-6)=248\\20x+84x-168=248\\104x=248+168\\104x=416\\x=\frac{416}{104} \\x=4[/tex]
So, Soccer balls x = 4
Basketballs = 3x-6 = 3(4)-6 = 12-6 = 6
So, the school purchased 4 soccer balls.
