The probability that the contestant wins at least one car is 3/5.

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.

The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

For 1 car, we consider two possible outcomes:

P(1 car) = 2/6 x 4/5 + 4/6 x 2/5

P(1 car) = 8/15

For no car in either door

P(no car) = 4/6 x 3/5

P(no car) = 2/5

The probability that the contestant wins at least one car is the sum of the probability of one car and the probability of two cars:

P(2 cars) = 2/6 x 1/5

= 1/15

P(1 car) + P(2 cars) = 8/15 + 1/15

= 3/5

Mr. Nolan has a bank account that compounds interest
german

Answer: At the end of the day on December 8, he has a total balance of $2841.02

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate at which the compound interest adds up is a 3.7%.

His principal is $2644.08, on the 7th of December, he withdraws $550. Thus, his balance is = $2644.08 - $550 = $2094.08.

He later deposits $934, after being paid by his employer.

That is $2094.08 + $934 = $3028.08

Which is his balance at the end of the day on December 7.

Remember that the rate is daily, at a 3.7%.

A 3.7% of the balance of December 7, $3028.08 is $112.039.

In total, interest +amount = real balance,

$112.039+$3028.08 = $3140.119

He later withdraws $300 for holiday shopping = $3140.119 - 300 = $2840.119

But 1 dollar = 100 cents and vice versa.

Therefore, $2840.119 = $2841.019

In two decimal places, that is approximately $2841.02

Therefore, Mr Nolan's balance at the end of December 8 is $2841.02.

Abner wants to create a shopping budget where he spends less than $80 per month on clothes. He also wants to spend at least thre
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

D) Abner can spend $60 per month on school clothes and $20 per month on gym clothes and stay within his budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the problem it states that Abner will spend 3 times more on (s)school clothes than (g) gym clothes.

So it would appear as s ≥ 3g.

If we plug in $60 as s (school clothes) and $20 as g (gym clothes), the statement is true.

60 ≥ 3(20)

60 ≥ 60. These numbers make the linear system true.

If you have trouble with this, an easy way to find this answer is simply creating the linear system that represents the problem, (he will buy 3 times more school clothes than gym clothes) s ≥  3g and plug in each variable from the answer choices until you find the variables that make the linear system true.
