The correct answer is D. Both A and B
Explanation:
Bartering is an economic system in which products are directly exchanged for other products. For example, a pound of oranges is exchanged for a pound of rice. Due to this, in bartering, there is no money or elements such as coins or bills that represent the value of products or services. This system has both advantages and disadvantages in comparison to the use of money.
In terms of disadvantages, bartering implies individuals need products or services they can use to exchange, which might not be possible for all individuals as not all individuals might produce a product or have a product other are interested in. Also, in bartering the value of products varies, for example, a pound of blueberries can be equal to a pound of rice, three pounds of rice, or even half pound of rice, as values change according to the situation of those participating in the exchange. This means, in bartering the value fluctuates and it is more difficult to agree on the value of something, which does not occur if money is used as each product has a defined price which might just vary slightly. According to this, options A and B are advantages of money over bartering.
In a survey of 15000 students of different schools, 40% of them were found to have tuition before the see examination. Among them 50% studied only mathematics ,30% only science and 10% studied others subject. how many student studied mathematics as well as science.
Answer: 600 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, we start with 15,000 students.
40% of them had tuition, so the actual number of them that had tuition is:
15,000*0.40 = 6,000.
Now we want to find the number of students that studied math and science.
50% only studied math,
30% only studied science
10% studied other subjects.
So 50% + 30% + 10% did NOT studied both math and science
90% is the percentage that did not study math and mathematics as well as science, then the other 10% did.
Then, out of the 6,000 students that had tuition, 10% studied math and science, the total number is:
6,000*0.10 = 600

Sam have worked these hours during the week: 4.5, 8.75, 9.5, 10, and 4.25 hours. How many hours did Sam work?
Answer:
37 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
4.5 + 8.75 + 9.5 + 10 + 4.25 = 37 hours
Answer:
37 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
4.5 hours = 4 hrs and 30 mins
8.75 hrs = 8 hrs and 45 mins
9.5 hrs = 9 hrs and 30 mins
10 hrs = 10 hrs and 0 min
4.25 hrs = 4 hrs and 15 mins
(30 + 45 + 30 + 15) mins = 2 hrs
Therefore, total hours Sam worked = (4 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 4 + 2) hrs = 37 hours

Find the probability that when a couple has four children, at least one of them is a boy. (Assume that boys and girls are equally likely.)
Answer:
The probability that at least, one of the four children the couple has is a boy is 0.8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that boys and girls are equally likely, we want to find the probability of having at least, one boy, from four children..
Note that it is possible to have the following for 4 children:
1. 4 boys, 0 girls
2. 3 boys, 1 girl
3. 2 boys, 2 girls
4. 1 boy, 3 girls
5. 0 boys, 4 girls.
To have at least, one boy, out of the 5 options, only 4 is possible.
1. 4 boys, 0 girls.........YES
2. 3 boys, 1 girl ...........YES
3. 2 boys, 2 girls.........YES
4. 1 boy, 3 girls.............YES
5. 0 boys, 4 girls..........NO
The probability is therefore,
(Probability of event = 4) ÷ (Total possible outcome = 5)
P = 4/5 = 0.8
Suppose you are standing such that a 32-foot tree is directly between you and the sun. If you are standing 140 feet away from the tree and the tree casts a 160-foot shadow, how tall could you be and still be completely in the shadow of the tree? x 160 ft 140 ft 32 ft
Answer:
Height = 4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine how tall I can be we take the difference between the shadow cast by the 32-feet tree and the distance away from the tree
But the tree is 32 feet tall but on shadow it's 160
So lemme determine how long I'll be in my shadow first
Distance away from tree= 140 feet
Length of shadow cast by tree
= 160 feet
Length of shadow= 160-140
Length if shadow= 20 feet
My height= x
X/20= 32/160
X= 20*32/260
X = 4 feet
Height = 4 feet

Jullian measures the distance he drives to work each day using the odometer on his car, which measures distance in miles, accurate to the nearest tenth of a mile. Using that measurement, he claims that the exact distance he drives to work is 11.7 miles. Use complete sentences to explain why jullian is incorrect
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation: Jullian's claim that the distance she drives to work is exactly 11.7miles is incorrect because, in other to record or get the exact result of a certain calculation such as Jullian's Distance, the value of the distance obtained will not be approximated or rounded. In this scenario, Distance was to the nearest tenth of a mile, thereby altering the true outcome of the calculation.
The word exact means that what is stated is very precise and does not fall below or above in any respect. However, a number whose accuracy is to the nearest tenth of a mile, violates this assertion.

Find the minimum sample size needed to estimate the percentage of Democrats who have a sibling. Use a 0.1 margin of error, use a confidence level of 98%, and use the results from a prior Harris poll that gave a confidence interval of (0.44, 0.51) for the proportion of Democrats who have a sibling.
Answer:
The minimum sample size is [tex]n =135[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The confidence interval is [tex]( lower \ limit = \ 0.44,\ \ \ upper \ limit = \ 0.51)[/tex]
The margin of error is [tex]E = 0.1[/tex]
Generally the sample proportion can be mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\r p = \frac{ upper \ limit + lower \ limit }{2}[/tex]
[tex]\r p = \frac{ 0.51 + 0.44}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\r p = 0.475[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 98% then the level of significance can be mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 98[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 2\%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha =0.02[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table
The value is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.33[/tex]
Generally the minimum sample size is evaluated as
[tex]n =[ \frac { Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \r p (1- \r p )[/tex]
[tex]n =[ \frac { 2.33}{0.1} ]^2 * 0.475(1- 0.475 )[/tex]

If f(x)=ax+b and f(2)=1 and f(-3)=11, what is the value of A?
Answer:
a = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=ax+b
f(2)=1
f(-3)=11
f(2) = 1 means 2a+b =1
f(-3)=11 means -3a + b = 11
Subtracting the two equations
-(-3a +b =11) becomes 3a -b = -11 so we can add
2a+b =1
3a - b = -11
----------------------
5a = -10
Divide by 5
5a/5 = -10/5

PLZ answer quick i will give brainliest if right no explanation needed Joe is responsible for reserving hotel rooms for a company trip. His company changes plans and increases how many people are going on the trip, so they need at least 50 total rooms. Joe had already reserved and paid for 161616 rooms, so he needs to reserve additional rooms. He can only reserve rooms in blocks, and each block contains 8 rooms and costs $900. Let B represent the number of additional blocks that Joe reserves. 1) Which inequality describes this scenario? Choose 1 answer: a: 16+8B≤50 b: 16+8B≥50 c: 16+B≤50 d: 16+B≥50 2) What is the least amount of additional money Joe can spend to get the rooms they need?
Answer:
16 + 8b ≥ 50
4500
Step-by-step explanation:
He needs at least 50 rooms and has already reserved 16
They are in groups of 8
16 + 8b ≥ 50
Subtract 16 from each side
16+8b-16 ≥ 50 -16
8b≥ 34
Divide by 6
8b/8 ≥ 34/8
b≥ 4.25
We need to round up since we need at least 50
b = 5 since we want the least amount of rooms
Each block is 900
5*900 = 4500 more that he will have to spend

A. -3/2
B. 3/2
C. 2/3
D. -2/3
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the slope using the slope formula
m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (1- -7)/(9 - -3)
= ( 1+7)/( 9+3)
= 8/12
Simplifying
= 2/3
Answer:
C. 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the equation: [tex]y_{2} - y_{1}/x_{2} - x_{1}[/tex] to find the slope.
y2 is equal to the y coordinate of the second point: 1
y1 is equal to the y coordinate of the first point: -7
x2 is equal to the x coordinate of the second point: 9
x1 is equal to the x coordinate of the first point: -3
So if you plug these values into the equation, you will get:
1 - (-7)/ 9- (-3)
= 1 + 7/ 9 + 3
= 8/12
= 2/3

d
The 99% confidence interval is [tex]0.4107 < p < 0.4293[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size [tex]n = 19[/tex]
The sample mean is [tex]\= x = \$\ 390[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = \$ \ 120[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 95% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 5 \%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table
So
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
The margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{120}{\sqrt{19} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 53.96[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval is
[tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]
=> [tex]390 - 53.96 < \mu < 390 - 53.96[/tex]
=> [tex]336.04 < \mu < 443.96[/tex]
When the confidence level increases the [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] also increases which increases the margin of error hence the confidence level becomes wider
Generally the sample size mathematically varies with margin of error as follows
[tex]n \ \ \alpha \ \ \frac{1}{E^2 }[/tex]
So if the sample size increases the margin of error decrease
The sample proportion is mathematically represented as
[tex]\r p = \frac{210}{500}[/tex]
[tex]\r p = 0.42[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 0.99 the level of significance is [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]
The critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }* \sqrt{ \frac{\r p (1- \r p )}{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 0.42 * \sqrt{ \frac{0.42 (1- 0.42 )}{ 500} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 0.0093[/tex]
The 99% confidence interval is
[tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]
[tex]0.42 - 0.0093 < p < 0.42 + 0.0093[/tex]
[tex]0.4107 < p < 0.4293[/tex]
At a baby shower, 15 guests are in attendance and 4 of them are randomly selected to receive a door prize. If all 4 prizes are identical, in how many ways can the prizes be awarded?
Answer:
1365
Step-by-step explanation:
We figure out combinations using this formula: n!
r!(n-r)!
n=15
r=4
So n!= 15x14x13x12x11x0x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1
r! = 4x3x2x1 times 15-4!, which is 11! = 11x10x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1
Put this together and you have 15x14x13x12/4x3x2x1=
There are 1365 different ways to award the 4 door prizes to 4 guests from a group of 15 guests.
What are the Combinations?Combinations are the procedures used in mathematics to pick k things from n different items without replacement.
The following formula computes the combinations of k items from n:
(n, k) = n! / k!×(n-k)!
The number of ways to award the 4 door prizes to 4 guests out of a group of 15 guests is a combinatorial problem that can be calculated using the formula.
Here, n = 15 (the total number of guests) and k = 4 (the number of prizes to be awarded).
So, the number of ways to award the prizes is:
C(15, 4) = 15! / (4! (15 - 4)!)
= 15! / (4! 11!)
= 15 x 14 x 13 x 12 / (4 x 3 x 2 x 1)
= 1365.
Therefore, there are 1365 different ways to award the 4 door prizes to 4 guests from a group of 15 guests.

Well based on our formula, we can simply multiply 100 · 3%.
Think of the 3% as 3/100.
So we have 100 · 3/100 and the 100's cancel and we're left with 3.
So $3 is earned in 1 year.
So after two years, you will have double that or $6.
