The probability that you will wait for at most 5 seconds is 6.7%

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Green = 40

Yellow = 5

Red = 30

When you spend a maximum of 5 seconds, it means that you get to the traffic light at the yellow cycle.

The probability is then calculated as:

P(Yellow) = 5/(40 + 5 + 30)

Evaluate

P(Yellow) = 6.7%

Hence, the probability that you will wait for at most 5 seconds is 6.7%

the system of equatuions 2y = 14 - 2x and y= -x+7 is graphed. what is the solution to the system of equations

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

the solution is the whole line y = -x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

both equations are identical

2y = 14 - 2x

=> y = 7 - x

which is exactly the same information as y=-x+7

so, there is no single crossing point. they are exactly covering each other. what "remains" is simply the whole line.

Addy bought a new shirt and she had a 20% off coupon . The coupon took $8.25 off of the price of her shirt. What did she pay wit

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

$33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Addy had 20% off coupon.

The coupon took $8.25 off of the shirt price.

Lets assume the original cost of shirt be "x".

We know Addy had 20% off coupon, which help to reduce the price of shirt by $8.25.

∴ We can form an equation to know the original price of shirt.

⇒ $\frac{20}{100} \times x= \$ 8.25$

⇒ $\frac{1}{5} \times x= \$ 8.25$

Multiplying both side by 5

⇒ $x= 8.25\times 5$

∴ $x= \$ 41.25$

Hence, The original cost price of shirt was $41.25.

Next, finding the price paid by Addy for her new shirt by reducing coupon discount from the cost of shirt.

Price paid by Addy for her new shirt= $\$ 41.25- \$ 8.25= \$ 33$

Hence, Addy paid $33 for her new shirt.

Melanie saves $20 every month in her savings account. She

OLga [1]

Let x represent the amount of months she has been saving for.

20x - 60 = 280

Solve for x.

20x - 60 = 280

~Add 60 to both sides

20x - 60 + 60 = 280 + 60

~Simplify

20x = 340

~Divide 20 to both sides

20x/20 = 340/20

~Simplify

x = 17

Therefore, Melanie has saved for 17 months.

Best of Luck!
