If each large truck $70,000. Past experience shows that they need twice as many vans as small trucks. The number of each type of vehicle they can buy is; Small truck 80, Commercial van 160, Large van 80.

<h3>How to find the number of vehicle?</h3>

Since the company intends to purchase 320 vehicle, Let write this equation:

C + S + L = 320 (Eq. 1)

Total cost of the vehicles:

25C + 80S +70L = 16,000 (Eq. 2)  (Divided by 1000 to keep the numbers small)

Number of commercial vans is twice the number of small trucks,

C = 2S

Substituting 2S in place of C in Eq. 1 and Eq. 2

2S + S + L = 320

25(2S) +80S +70L = 16,000

130S + 70L = 16,000

Multiplying the first of those equations by 70

210S + 70L = 22,400

130S + 70L = 16,000

Subtracting the second equation from the first:

80S = 6400

Divide both  side by 80S

S = 6400/80

S = 80 (Small truck)

Then:

C = 2S

C= 2(80)

C= 160 (Commercial van)

So,

C + S + L = 320

160 + 80 + L = 320

L = 320 - 160 - 80

L =80 (Large van)

Therefore  the number of each type of vehicle they can buy is; Small truck 80, Commercial van 160, Large van 80.

Yes, I would play the game, because the probability of winning is 13/18.

Probability:

Probability refer the possible occurrence of any particular event.

Given,

A game where two players each throw two dice each. if any one die matches the other, you win a dollar. if there is no match, you lose a dollar.

Here we need to find whether we able to play this one or not.

To find that one, first, we have to identify the winning scenarios,

Let us consider five winning scenarios. Lets represent the dice outcomes as A, B, C, and D, where your dice are A and B and the other player's are C and D. The five scenarios are:

1) A = B

2) A = C

3) A = D

4) B = C

5) B = D

We know that the total possible outcomes is 6^4. We can go through each scenario and count the possible outcomes. We must be careful to avoid overcounting.

Based on this,

The probability that none match is

=> 6*5*4*3/6^4

=> 360 / 1296

=> 5 / 18

So, probability of winning is,

=> 1 - 5/18

=> 13/18.

So, based on the probability the chance of winning is high. So, we can play it.
