When the cpi is 185, an electric razor cost $57.81. what is the difference between the price of an electric razor in 1983 and the cost of an electric razor when the cpi is 207, to the nearest cent? a. $33.44 b. $31.25 c. $26.56 d. $6.88

Answers

Answer 1

The difference between the price of an electric razor in 1983 and the cost of an electric razor when the cpi is 207, to the nearest cent is given by: Option D: $6.88

What is consumer price index?

The consumer price index is the new cost of market basket in terms of percentage of old cost of market basket.

[tex]CPI_t[/tex] = consumer price index in current period[tex]C_t[/tex] = cost of market basket in current period[tex]C_0[/tex]  = cost of market basket in base period

Then, we have:

[tex]CPI_t = \dfrac{C_t}{C_0} \times 100[/tex]

For this case, we're given that:

In 1983, CPI of considered razor = 185, and price = $57.81In some other year, the CPI of considered razor = 207, and price = $ ?? (to find).

Let the base price of the razor in some base period be [tex]C_0[/tex]  

Then, for year 1983, we get:
[tex]CPI_t = \dfrac{C_t}{C_0} \times 100\\\\185= \dfrac{57.81}{C_0} \times 100\\\\C_0 \approx 31.248 \: \text{(in dollars)}[/tex]

Now for the year when CPI is 207, let the price of th razor be $x, then we get:

[tex]CPI_t = \dfrac{C_t}{C_0} \times 100\\\\207 \approx \dfrac{x}{31.248} \times 100\\\\x \approx 64.683 \: \text{(in dollars)}[/tex]

The difference between the two prices is:

[tex]d \approx 64.683 - 57.81 = 6.87 \approx 6.88\: \text{(in dollars)}[/tex]

Thus, the difference between the price of an electric razor in 1983 and the cost of an electric razor when the cpi is 207, to the nearest cent is given by: Option D: $6.88

Six coins are tossed simultaneously what is the probability of getting exactly 4 heads

Answers

3/12 because there are 6 heads and tails in 6 coins

The probability of getting exactly 4 heads is 0.23.

What is the probability?

Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.

Let p represents the probability of getting head in a toss of a fair coin, so

[tex]\rm P=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\q=1-p\\\\q=1-\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\q=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Let X denote the random variable representing the number of heads in 6 tosses of a coin.

The probability of getting r sixes in n tosses of a fair is given by,

Probability of getting 4 heads :

[tex]\rm P(X=3)=^6C_4\times \left ( \dfrac{1}{2} \right )^4 \times \left ( \dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{6-4}\\\\P(X=3)=15 \times \dfrac{1}{16} \times \left ( \dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{2}\\\\P(X=3)=15 \times \dfrac{1}{16} \times \dfrac{1}{4}\\\\= 0.23[/tex]

Hence, the probability of getting exactly 4 heads is 0.23.

A number is selected at random from {1, 2, 3} three times probability that 1 is selected at least once?

Answers

The probability that one is selected is the likelihood

The probability that one is selected at least once is 0.704

How to calculate the probability?

The sample space is given as:

S = {1,2,3}

The probability that 1 is not selected at all is:

P'(None) = 2/3

The probability that one is selected at least once is calculated using the following complement rule

P(At least once)  = 1 - P(None)^3

This gives

P(At least once) = 1 -(2/3)^3

Evaluate

P(At least once) = 0.704

Hence, the probability that one is selected at least once is 0.704

Leyla is redecorating her living room. The room is in the shape of a right rectangular prism. The dimensions of the room are 15 feet in length by 10 feet in width by 8 feet in height.
She plans to cover the floor with hardwood. The cost of the hardwood is $3 per square foot. She plans to cover the walls and the ceiling with paint. Each container of paint costs $30 and can cover 275 ft².
What is the total cost of the hardwood flooring and paint needed for this room?


Drag and drop the responses to correctly complete these sentences.

Answers

Answer:

Total floor: 150 sq ft = $450

Wall and Ceiling: 550 sq ft = $60

Total cost $510

Step-by-step explanation:

Floor: 15 sq ft * 10 sq ft (L * W) = 150 sq ft

150 sq ft * $3 = $450

Walls: 2(H * L) = 2(8*15) = 240 sq ft

2(H * W) = 2(8*10) = 160

Total walls sq ft = 400 sq ft

Ceiling is same as floor = 150 sq ft

Total sq ft painted = 550 sq ft

550 sq ft / 275 sq ft (covered per paint) = 2 paints = $60

$450 floor + $60 paint = $ 510

Answer:

$510

Step-by-step explanation:

The floor of the room measures 15 ft in length and 10 ft in width.

The area of the floor is length × width = 15 ft × 10 ft = 150 ft².

The hardwood costs $3/ft².

The cost of the hardwood is: $3/ft² × 150 ft² = $450

The area of the walls is the lateral surface area of the rectangular prism.

The lateral surface area of the rectangular prism is the perimeter of the base times the height.

perimeter of the base = 15 ft + 15 ft + 10 ft + 10 ft = 50 ft

height = 8 ft

lateral area = total area of the walls = perimeter × height = 50 ft × 8 ft = 400 ft²

The paint costs $30/(275 ft²).

She needs to paint 400 ft².

400 ft² / 275 ft² = 1.45

She needs 1.45 containers of paint, but she must buy full containers of paint, so she must buy 2 containers since 1 container is not enough.

Cost of paint: 2 × $30 = 60

Total cost of hardwood and paint = $450 + $60 = $510

The sum of 3 consecutive numbers is 240 what are the 3 numbers?

Answers

Answer:

79, 80, 81

Step-by-step explanation:

Creating an equation.

let a = first number , a + 1 = second number and a + 2 = third number

the sum of these three consecutive numbers is 240

this means that , a + ( a + 1 ) + ( a + 2 ) = 240

Solving for x using the equation created.

a + ( a + 1 ) + ( a + 2 ) = 240

==> remove parenthesis

a + a + 1 + a + 2 = 240

==> combine like terms

3a + 3 = 240

==> subtract 3 from both sides

3a = 237

==> divide both sides by 3

a = 79

Finding the 3 numbers

First number = a

a = 79 so first = 79

Second number = a + 1

a = 79 so second number = 79 + 1 = 80

Third number = a + 2

a = 79 so third number = 79 + 2 = 81

The three numbers are 79, 80 and 81

Answer:

79+80+81=240

Step-by-step explanation:

240/3=80

Jasmine is trying to replace the flooring in her rectangular bedroom. When she measured the width and length of the floor, she found that the length is 5 ft. longer than the width. If the perimeter of the room is 50 ft., how much flooring will she need to replace the existing flooring in her room?

Answers

By finding the area of the rectangle, we will see that she will need 150 ft^2 of flooring.

How to get the area of the rectangle?

For a rectangle of length L and width W, the area is:

A = L*W

And the perimeter is:

P = 2*(L + W).

In this case, we know that the length is 5ft longer than the width, so we can write:

L = W + 5ft

We also know that the perimeter is 50ft, so we can write:

P = 50ft = 2*(W + 5ft + W)

     50ft = 4*W + 10ft

     40ft/4 = W = 10ft

So the width is 10 ft, and then the length will be:

L = 10ft + 5ft = 15ft

So the area of the rectangle is:

A = 10ft*15ft = 150 ft^2

She will need 150 ft^2 of flooring.
