Answer:

Tip given to the server be $6.44 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

The Edwards family's bill for dinner is $42.95.

The normal tip is 15%.

15% is written in the decimal form .

$= \frac{15}{100}$

= 0.15

Tip given to the server = 0.15 × Cost of the dinner

Putting all the values in the above

= 0.15 × 42.95

= $6.44 (Approx)

Therefore the tip given to the server be $6.44 .

$42.95/1000=0.4295*15
the tip would be $6.4425 or $6.44
hope this helps!

A box of Georgia peaches has 3 bad and 12 good peaches. (a) If you make a peach cobbler of 12 peaches randomly selected from the

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

a) 0.21% probability that there are no bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

b) 99.79% probability of having at least 1 bad peach in the peach cobbler

c) 7.91% probability of having exactly 2 bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the peaches are chosen is not important. So the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

(a) If you make a peach cobbler of 12 peaches randomly selected from the box, what is the probability that there are no bad peaches in the peach cobbler?

Desired outcomes:

12 good peaches, from a set of 12. So

$D = C_{12,12} = \frac{12!}{12!(12 - 12)!} = 1$

Total outcomes:

12 peaches, from a set of 15. So

$T = C_{15,12} = \frac{15!}{12!(15 - 12)!} = 455$

Probability:

$p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1}{455} = 0.0021$

0.21% probability that there are no bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

(b) What is the probability of having at least 1 bad peach in the peach cobbler?

Either there are no bad peaches, or these is at least 1. The sum of the probabilities of these events is 100%. So

p + 0.21 = 100

p = 99.79

99.79% probability of having at least 1 bad peach in the peach cobbler

(c) What is the probability of having exactly 2 bad peaches in the peach cob- bler?

Desired outcomes:

2 bad peaches, from a set of 3.

One good peach, from a set of 12.

$D = C_{3,2}*C_{12,1} = \frac{3!}{2!(3-2)!}*\frac{12!}{1!(12 - 1)!} = 36$

Total outcomes:

12 peaches, from a set of 15. So

$T = C_{15,12} = \frac{15!}{12!(15 - 12)!} = 455$

Probability:

$p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{36}{455} = 0.0791$

7.91% probability of having exactly 2 bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

Hi , step by step please

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Eldest: $335,500 Middle: $182,750 Youngest: $167,750

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent the amount of money the youngest sibling received as x.

The amount the eldest received can be represented as: 2x

The amount the middle sibling received can be represented as: x + 15,000

If we combined the amount of money that all of the siblings received, it would be $686,000. We can write this as an equation:

686,000 = 2x + (x + 15,000) + x

Now let's solve for x. First, combine like terms

686,000 = 4x + 15,000

Subtract 15000 from both sides to isolate the 4x

671,000 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate the x

167,750 = x

Now we know that the amount of money the youngest received is $167,750. We can use this amount to figure out how much the other two siblings received.

Eldest: 2 * 167,750 = $335,500

Middle: 167,750 + 15,000 = $182,750

We can check to make sure these answers are correct by adding them all together to make sure that they equal 686,000

167,750 + 335,500 + 182,750 = 686,000
