The graph of p = 400 and the graph of p = 50s – 200 intersect at the point (12,400). If the equation p = 50s – 200 represents the profit, p, based on s sales, what does the intersection best represent?
a. When the sales are 400, the profit is 12.
b. When the sales are 12, the profit is 400.
c. The profit is always 400.
d. The sales are always 12.

using benchmark values. Your equation must show the estimate for each fraction and for the solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
I never learned this (for good reasons, I say). for me this is the strangest thing in math. math is precise. we are not guessing around when we can actually calculate things.
this is definitely ok, when just trying to decide, if one fraction is larger than the other, but to use that for an actual operation among fractions, is the biggest nonsense I have ever seen in math lessons (and not simpler than doing the precise calculation). again, math is a precise thing. the only valid level of imprecise answers is rounding, but only for the end result, not for intermediate results, because the rounding errors are rarely compensating for each other, they mostly pile up making the end result even less precise.
enough with the venting ...
benchmark fractions are the simple fractions (and their multiples)
1 (=1/1), 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6
and then in steps of 2 :
1/8, 1/10, 1/12, ...
we try to find the closest simple fractions to our actual fractions and use them to estimate the actual result.
the simplest (but also normally the least precise) benchmark approach is using 1/2 as benchmark unit and 0, 1/2, 1 as benchmarks.
so, is 10/12 closest to 0, to 1/2 or to 1 ?
we know that 0 in 12ths would be 0/12, 1/2 would be 6/12, and 1 would be 12/12.
so, out of these 3 values 10/12 is closest to 12/12 (=1), so that is what you are choosing as representation.
is 3/8 closest to 0, 1/2 or to 1 ?
we would have 0/8, 4/8, 8/8.
and 3/8 is closest to 4/8 (= 1/2), and that is what we are choosing here as representation.
and the estimated result of 10/12 - 3/8 = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2 or 4/8 or 6/12.
let's pick 1/4 as benchmark unit.
so, are the numbers closest to
0, 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 or 1 (4/4) ?
for 10/12 we get then
0/12, 3/12, 6/12, 9/12, 12/12
and 10/12 is closest to 9/12 (3/4), which we pick as representation.
for 3/8 we get
0/8, 2/8, 4/8, 6/8, 8/8
if equidistant, we have to round up, so, we get 4/8 (2/4), which we pick as representation.
and the estimated calculation is
10/12 - 3/8 = 3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4
which is really horrible ...
2 and 4 are factors of 12 and 8. all smaller benchmark fractions (<1/4; so, e.g. 1/5, 1/6, 1/8. ...) are not meeting that criteria, making the benchmark finding much harder. so, I would not try that.
the real result is
the LCM of 12 and 8 is 24 (2×12 and 3×8).
so, we have
20/24 - 9/24 = 11/24 (almost 1/2).
so, actually, the benchmark unit of 1/2 is giving the best result here.
but to just do the exercise of benchmark units that are not factors of both denominators, let's pick 1/6
so, are the numbers closest to
0, 1/6, 2/6, 3/6, 4/6, 5/6 or 1 (6/6) ?
for 10/12 we get (all nicely)
0/12, 2/12, 4/12, 6/12, 8/12, 10/12, 12/12
so, 10/12 is closest to 10/12 (of course) = 5/6, which we pick as representation.
for 3/8 we get (ugh, we have to go for 24ths here too as 4×6 and 3×8)
0/24, 4/24, 8/24, 12/24, 16/24, 20/24. 24/24
3/8 = 9/24
so, the closest number to 9/24 is 8/24 (= 2/6), which we pick as representation.
and the estimated calculation is
10/12 - 3/8 = 5/6 - 2/6 = 3/6 = 1/2
did I say already that I don't like this ? that I don't see the advantage to the actual calculation ?
so, just in case : I don't like this (ugh) !
can someone help me with this
Answer:
B. across the y-axis
Step-by-step explanation:
The line of reflection is the perpendicular bisector of the segment between the orginal point and its image. If you plot the two points, you see that the y-axis is that bisector.
The point was reflected across the y-axis.
__
Additional comments
Changing the sign of the x-coordinate means a point that was some distance on one side of the y-axis is now that same distance on the other side. That is, the y-axis is the line of reflection when the sign of x changes.
Similarly, the x-axis is the line of reflection when the sign of y changes.
(x, y) ⇒ (-x, y) . . . . reflection across the y-axis
(x, y) ⇒ (x, -y) . . . . reflection across the x-axis
__
Changing the signs of both coordinates (in either order) is effectively a reflection across the origin. There are other names for this reflection, too.
(x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y) . . . . reflection across both axes, across the orign, rotation 180°

This is a recipe that makes 30 chocolate chip cookies:
- 150g butter
- 160g sugar
- 225g plain flour
- 1 large egg
- 12 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 200g chocolate chips
Miss Watson wants to make 25 cookies for her class.
How much plain flour will she need?
Step-by-step explanation:
30: 225 = 25: X
30/225= 25/X
30×X = 225×25
30X = 5625
X = 187.5
Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
Answer:
We need to use the sine of 17 degrees to find x. Our proportion is sin(17 degrees)=x/9.3. Multiply both sides by 9.3 and we get 9.3sin(17)=x. Using a calculator, we get about 2.7.

Answer: $7 change remains
Step-by-step explanation: When doing rounding in word problems, in most situations you will have to round up regardless of numbers. Rounding to the nickel then means that the cents on the cash amounts must be .00 or .05 Following this pattern:
0.87 is rounded to 0.90
2.66 is rounded to 2.70
3.90 is rounded to 3.90
1.63 is rounded to 1.65
2.53 is rounded to 2.55
1.30 is rounded to 1.30
Then just add together the rounded amounts, which is $13
Simply subtract with the formula, 20-13=7

QUESTION 3
(15 marks)
Binomial probability A JHB car Salesman found that 1 out of 5 of consultations result is a sale. If on the
randomly selected day he makes eight 8 consultations what is the probability that he will make.
3. 1 At most, one sale
3. 2 At least one sale
3. 3 Two or three sales
3. 4 Six sales
Using the binomial distribution, it is found that:
3.1 There is a 0.5033 = 50.33% probability that he makes at most one sale.
3.2 There is a 0.8322 = 83.22% probability that he makes at least one sale.
3.3. There is a 0.4404 = 44.04% probability that he makes two or three sales.
3.4. There is a 0.0011 = 0.11% probability that he makes six sales.
What is the binomial distribution formula?
The formula is:
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
The parameters are:
x is the number of successes.n is the number of trials.p is the probability of a success on a single trial.In this problem:
1 out of 5 of consultations result is a sale, hence p = 1/5 = 0.2.8 consultations are considered, hence n = 8.Item 1:
The probability that he makes at most one sale is:
[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]
Then:
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{8,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{8} = 0.1678[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{8,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{7} = 0.3355[/tex]
Then:
[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1678 + 0.3355 = 0.5033[/tex]
There is a 0.5033 = 50.33% probability that he makes at most one sale.
Item 2:
The probability that he makes at least one sale is:
P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.1678 = 0.8322.
There is a 0.8322 = 83.22% probability that he makes at least one sale.
Item 3:
The probability that he makes two or three sales is given by:
[tex]P(2 \leq X \leq 3) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
In which:
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{8,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{6} = 0.2936[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{8,1}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{5} = 0.1468[/tex]
Then:
[tex]P(2 \leq X \leq 3) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.2936 + 0.1468 = 0.4404[/tex]
There is a 0.4404 = 44.04% probability that he makes two or three sales.
Item 4:
The probability that he makes six sales is P(X = 6), hence:
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{8,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{2} = 0.0011[/tex]
There is a 0.0011 = 0.11% probability that he makes six sales.
