Answer: Our required probability is 0.55.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that chance of winning the hotel bid = 40%

Probability that no chance of winning the hotel bid = 100-40=60%

Probability that chance of winning the office building bid = 25%

Probability that no chance of winning the office building bid = 100-25 = 75%

So, Probability that the company will win at least one contract is given by

0.4\times 0.75+0.6\times 0.25+0.4\times 0.25\\\\=0.55

Hence, our required probability is 0.55.

Answer:  0.6 in 10 % ; 0.4 in 15 %

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (x*10%) + (y*15%)/ x+y=12%

2. x+y = 1  x= 1-y

(0.1x + 0.15y/ x+y= 12/100) * 100

(10x + 15y/x+y = 12)*(x+y)

10x+15y= 12x + 12y

-2x=-3y

2x = 3y   2(1 - y)= 3y

2-2y=3y   2= 5y

y= 0.4

x= 0.6

Sally spelled 2 words incorrectly out of 20 spelling words on the test. What percent grade did Sally get on the test?
Tom [10]

Answer:

90%

Step-by-step explanation:

So Sally gets 18/20 of the questions correct then you need to make the denominator of the fraction to 100 which makes a percent. So you multiply both the numerator and denominator by 5:

90/100

which is equal to 90%

Hope this helps!
