The original price is 100% of the price. If the price is marked 60% off, then you pay 40% of the original price.
An item costs x dollars.
With the 60% off discount, it now costs 40% of x, or 0.4x.
Now you apply a 30% discount.
For the second discount, consider the price 0.4x to be the new original price. If the price is now discounted 30%, you will pay 70% of the new original price.
Start with 0.4x.
Now calculate 70% of 0.4x.
70% of 0.4x = 0.70 * 0.4x = 0.28x
After applying the 60% discount and the 30% discount, the item that originally cost x now costs 0.28x. 0.28x is the same as 28% of x. The amount you pay is 28% of the original price.
Answer: 28%
Im thinking it whould be c
When you use the Distributive Property you're really just multiplying the number on the outside by all of the numbers on the inside of the parentheses.
(8 - 3p) (-2) Multiply -2 by 8 and -3p
-2(8) + (-2)(-3p) Multiply
-16 + 6p
Answer:
0.3075 = 30.75% probability that a person will wait for more than 7 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance.
In this problem, we have that:

Find the probability that a person will wait for more than 7 minutes.
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 7. So



has a pvalue of 0.6915
1 - 0.6915 = 0.3075
0.3075 = 30.75% probability that a person will wait for more than 7 minutes.
