The number of students expected to prefer cheese pizza from the 340 students is 200 stduents.

The ratio shows how many times one value is contained in another value.

Example:

There are 3 apples and 2 oranges in a basket.

The ratio of apples to oranges is 3:2 or 3/2.

We have,

Cheese pizza = 40 students

Pepperoni pizza = 28

The ratio of cheese and Pepperoni pizzas.

= 40:28

= 10:7

Now,

Cheese pizza = 10x

Pepperoni pizza = 7x

The number of expected students who prefer cheese pizza.

= (10x)/(17x) x 340

= 10/17 x 340

= 10 x 20

= 200

Thus,

The number of expected students preferring cheese pizza is 200.

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 6 = 12      add 6 to both sides of the equation

x - 6 + 6 = 12 + 6     simplify

x = 18

3x-1 = 11        add  1  to both sides of the equation

3x -1 + 1 = 11 + 1

3x = 12          now divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 12 / 3   simplify

x = 4

You roll a 100 sided die with sides 1-100. The optimal strategy is to stop and cash out only if the dice shows 87 or higher , else keep spending $1 to roll again n again, leading to expected winning of $87.35.

The 100-sided die Lou Zocchi created is known by the trademark "Zocchihedron," and it made its debut in 1985. It assumes the appearance of a ball with 100 flattened planes, unlike other polyhedran dice. It is also known as "Zocchi's Golfball."

optimal strategy is to stop and take dollar if roll > x, and to pay $1 and continue when roll <= x (as applicable to all/any turn/roll). We need to find x in order to maximize E.

Assuming optimal expected value to be E, once you cast the first roll, there are two possible scenario:

1) we get roll value > x with probability (100-x)/100, and decide to take that amount, expected winning = (x+1+100)/2 (that amount varies uniformly from x+1 to 100 in this case, take the average)

2) we get roll value <= x with probability x/100 and decide to continue, with future expected winning again = E and 1$ loss in fee. Total expected winning in this scenario = E-1

[math]E=\frac{(100-x)}{100}\times\frac{ (x+1+100)}{2}[/math][math] + \frac{x}{100}\times(E-1)[/math]

[math]E = \frac{(100-x)(101+x) - 2x}{200 - 2x}[/math]

maximizing E w.r.t. x,

dE/dx = 0

2x^2 - 400x + 19600 = 0

x = ( 400+/- sqrt(160000-4*2*19600) ) / 4

Since, 1<= x <= 100, therefore x = ( 400+ sqrt(160000-4*2*19600) ) / 4

x = 85.85786

We just have to calculate E(x=85) and E(x=86) and compare.

E((x=86) = 87.35 and E(x=85) = 87.33

so optimal strategy is to stop and cash out only if the dice shows 87 or higher , else keep spending $1 to roll again n again, leading to expected winning of $87.35.

the cost of a broom is $62.50, and the cost of a mop is x + 15 = 62.5 + 15 = $77.50.

Therefore,

a) 1 mop cost $77.50

b) 1 broom cost $62.50

What is the system of equations?

A system of equations is a set of one or more equations involving a number of variables. The solutions to systems of equations are the variable mappings such that all component equations are satisfied in other words, the locations at which all of these equations intersect.

To find the cost of a mop and a broom, we can set up a system of equations using the information given:

Let x be the cost of a broom

Let y be the cost of a mop (which is $15 more than a broom)

From the problem, we know that:

y = x + 15 (since a mop costs $15 more than a broom)

5x + 7y = 855 (since 5 mops and 7 brooms cost a total of $855)

We can substitute the first equation into the second equation:

5x + 7(x + 15) = 855

5x + 7x + 105 = 855

12x = 750

x = 62.5

Hence, the cost of a broom is $62.50, and the cost of a mop is x + 15 = 62.5 + 15 = $77.50.

Therefore,

a) 1 mop cost $77.50

b) 1 broom cost $62.50

The margin of error and the sample mean of the confidence interval are given as follows:

The confidence interval is defined as follows:

The definition of a confidence interval is that it is obtained as the sample mean plus/minus the margin of error.

Hence the sample mean is calculated as the mean of the bounds of the interval, hence:

(12.7 + 19.5)/2 = 16.1.

The margin of error is calculated as the absolute value of the difference of each bound from the sample mean, hence:

Explanation:

We'll break things up into cases. The phrasing "at least 3" means "3 or more".

We either will have 3 kings or 4 kings.

----------------------------------------------

Case A) There are exactly 3 kings.

Use the nCr combination formula. There are n = 4 kings total and we select r = 3 of them. That gives 4C3 = 4 ways to pick the 3 kings.

Put another way: there are 4 ways to leave a certain king out of the hand.

Then we have 52-4 = 48 cards that aren't a king, and we need to fill the remaining r = 2 slots. Through the nCr formula, you should find that 48C2 = 1128

To recap, we found

That gives 4*1128 = 4512 ways to have case A happen.

----------------------------------------------

Case B) There are exactly 4 kings

4C4 = 1, so there's only one way to select all the kings. The order doesn't matter. Then we have 48 cards to pick from for the fifth slot.

Overall there are 1*48 = 48 ways to have case B play out.

----------------------------------------------

There were 4512 ways to have case A happen, and 48 ways to have case B happen.

These cases are mutually exclusive to allow us to simply add the counts:

4512+48 = 4560

This is why the final answer is 4560

The sum of the interior angles of a nonagon (a 9-sided polygon) is 1,450°.

1. The interior angles of a polygon can be calculated by subtracting 2 from the number of sides, then multiplying the result by 180°.

2. For a nonagon (a 9-sided polygon), the calculation is

(9-2) × 180° = 1,450°.

The sum of the interior angles of any polygon can be calculated using the formula

(n-2) × 180°,

where n is the number of sides of the polygon. This formula works because the sum of the interior angles of any polygon is always equal to (n-2) times the measure of a single interior angle. For a nonagon, a 9-sided polygon, the calculation is

(9-2) × 180° = 1,450°.

In mathematics, inequalities specify the connection between two non-equal numbers. Equal does not imply inequality. Typically, we use the "not equal sign ()" to indicate that two values are not equal. But several inequalities are utilized to compare the numbers, whether it is less than or higher than.

Given few inequalities and some operations are performed on them

For first inequality:

Multiply both sides by 3, then by 2, then by 4, then by 9

=> 4 *3 * 2 * 4 * 9 < 7  *3 * 2 * 4 * 9

=> 864 < 1512

there is no change in the inequality sign and it is still true.

For the second inequality:

=>11 > -2

Add 3 to both sides, then add 3, then add (-4)

=> 11 +3 + 3 + (-4) > -2 + 3+3 + (-4)

=> 13 > 0

there is no change in the inequality sign and it is still true.

For the third inequality:

=> -2 ≤ -2

Subtract 6 from both sides, then 8, and then 2

=> -2 -6 -8 -2 ≤  -2 -6 -8 -2

=>  -18 ≤ -18

there is no change in the inequality sign and it is still true.

For the fourth inequality:

=> -4 < 8

Divide both sides by -4

=> -4 / -4 < 8 / -4

Since, after dividing or multiplying on both sides by a negative sign, inequality changes its sign

=> 1 > -2

Divide both sides by -2

=> -1/2 < 1

there are two times a change in the inequality sign and it is still true.

The answer is a ≤ 30.

An inequality is a mathematical expression that compares two values or expressions using an inequality operator. In this case, the inequality would be a ≤ 30. This means that the area of the triangle must be less than or equal to 30 square inches.

This can be solved by finding the area of the triangle. To do this, we need to know the lengths of the sides of the triangle. Suppose we have sides p, q, and r. Then the area of the triangle can be found using the formula:

                       a = 1/2 × b × h

where q is the base of the triangle and r is the height. To ensure that the area of the triangle is no more than 30 square inches, the inequality must be satisfied. That is, 1/2 × b × h ≤ 30. This inequality can be rewritten in terms of the side lengths by substituting 1/2 × q × r for h. This gives us a ≤ 30.
