Given:
95 pink rubber bands
90 brown rubber bands

185 rubber bands in all.

Probability of pink : 95/185 ⇒ 19/37

  95 ÷ 5 = 19
185 ÷ 5 = 37

Probability of brown : 90/185 ⇒ 18/37

  90 ÷ 5 = 18
185 ÷ 5 = 37

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that A box contains 95 pink rubber bands and 90 brown rubber bands.

Then, the number of pink rubber bands=95,

Number of brown rubber bands=90 and

the total number of rubber bands=95+90=185.

Now, (A) The theoretical probability of selecting a pink rubber band is given as:

P(Pink band)=\frac{Number of pink bands}{total number of bands}

P(pink bands)=\frac{95}{185}=\frac{19}{37}

which is the required probability in simplest form.

(B) The theoretical probability of selecting a brown rubber band is given as:

P(Brown band)=\frac{Number of brown bands}{total number of bands}

P(Brown bands)=\frac{90}{185}=\frac{18}{37}.

which is the required probability in simplest form.

The answer and how to do it
inessss [21]
Alright, here is how to do it:
First you are going to want to multiply 4x4. [That is Dino's Charges for 4 Sandwiches.] So once you've done that, you should get 16

Now, you're going to want to multiply 8x4. [That is Carla's charges for 4 Sandwiches.] So once you've done that, you should get 24.

Now, to find the difference you will have to subtract them. 24-16 = 18.
Now that we've done this we now know your answer is:
Carla's sandwiches cost more than Dino's sandwiches. The difference is 18 dollars.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

StartFraction 16 over 81 EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 prime numbers from 2 to 10 (2, 3, 5, 7) and 9 numbers from 2 - 10. Total possibilities: 9 * 9 = 81

Prime possibilities: 4 * 4 = 16

Therefore the answer is 16/81 or StartFraction 16 over 81 EndFraction

Find the sale price of the item. Round to two decimal places if necessary. Original price: $71.00 Markdown: 33% The sale price i
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

8. $35.10

9. $59.63

10. $13.43

11. $70

12. Take the percent you pay (100-the discount) as a decimal and multiply it by the regular price.

Step-by-step explanation:

For finding the price we pay during a sale, we focus on the percent we pay. If 22% off is the sale, then we spend 78% or 100-22-78. We use this percent byb  multiplying the price with a decimal. We convert percents into decimals by dividing the percent number by 100. For example, 78% divided by 100 becomes 0.78.

8. Percent off is 22%. We pay 78%=0.78.

45(0.78)=$35.10

9. Percent off is 33%. We pay 67%=0.67.

89(0.67)=$59.63

10. Percent off is 44%. We pay 56%=0.56.

23.99(0.56)=$13.43

11. Percent off is 75%. We pay 25%=0.25.

279.99(0.25)=$70

12. See explanation above.
