Consider this option (2 ways for this):
1. Probability=1-[probability_all_boys].
for [probability_all_boys]=1/[all_possible_combinations];
for [all_combinations]=2³=8. It means that 
Probability=1-(1/8)=7/8=0.875.
2. Probability=[needed_cases]\[all_possible_cases];
all possible combinations are:
bbb;ggg;bgg;bgb;bbg;gbg;gbb;ggb; - (where 'g' - girl, 'b' - boy) total 8.
needed cases: ggg;bgg;bgb;bbg;gbg;gbb;ggb, - total 7.
Probability=7/8=0.875

Need help filling in the blanks.. markups, markdowns, and sale price.
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

1) markup = $105 , selling price = $150 , %mark up based on cost = 233.33% , mark down = $30 , sale price = $120

2) mark up = $75.08 , selling price = $110.83 , %mark up based on selling price = 67.74% , mark down = $27.71 , sale price = $83.12

3) Cost = $19.87 , markup = $59.62 , %markup based on selling price = 75% , mark down = $19.87 , sale price = $59.62

4) Cost = $9.72 , mark up = $3.24 , %mark up based on cost = 33.33% , %mark down = 10.03% , sale price = $11.66

5) Cost = $17.9 , selling price = $53.7 , %markup based on selling price = 66.67% , Mark down = 10.74 , %markdown = 20% ,

Step-by-step explanation:

1) ∵ cost/complement of %mark up based on selling price = selling price

∴ Selling price = 45/(1 - 0.7) = $150

∵ Mark up = selling price - cost price

∴ Mark up = 150 - 45 = $105

∵ %mark up based on cost price = mark up /cost

∴  %mark up based on cost price = 105/45 = 233.33%

∵ Mark down = selling price × %mark down

∴ Mark down = 150 × 0.2 = $30

∵ Sale price = selling price - mark down

∴ Sale price = 150 - 30 = $120

2) ∵ Mark up = Cost × %mark up based on the cost

∴ Mark up = 35.75 × 2.1 = $75.08

∵ Selling price = cost + markup

∴ Selling price = 35.75 + 75.08 = $110.83

∵ %markup based on selling price = mark up/selling price

∴ %markup based on selling price = 75.08/110.83 = %67.74

∵ Mark down = selling price × %mark down

∴ Mark down = 110.83 × 0.25 = $27.71

∵ Sale price = selling price - mark down

∴ sale price = 110.83 - 27.71 = $83.12

3) ∵ Mark down = selling price × %mark down

∴ Mark down = 79.49 × 0.25 = $19.87

∵ Sale price = selling price - mark down

∴ Sale price = 79.49 - 19.87 = $59.62

∵ Mark up/cost = %mark up based on cost

∴ Mark up/cost = 3

∴ Mark up = 3 cost ⇒ (1)

∵ Mark up + cost = selling price

∴ Mark up + cost = 79.49 ⇒ (2)

∵ Sub (1) in (2)

∴ 3cost + cost = 79.49 ⇒ 4cost = 79.49 ⇒ cost = 79.49/4

∴ Cost = $19.87

∴ Mark up = 3 × 19.87 = $59.62

∵ %mark up = mark up/selling price

∴ % mark up = 59.62/79.49 = 75%

4) ∵ Mark up = selling price × % mark up based on selling price

∴ Mark up = 12.96 × 0.25 = $3.24

∵ Cost = complement of %mark up based on selling price × selling price

∵ Cost = (1 - 0.25) × 12.96 = $9.72

∵ %mark up based on cost = mark up/cost

∴ %mark up based on cost = 3.24/9.72 = 33.33%

∵ %Mark down = mark down/ selling price

∴ %Mark down = 1.30/12.96 = 10.03%

∵ Sale price = selling price - mark down

∴ Sale price = 12.96 - 1.30 = $11.66

5) ∵ Cost = mark up/%mark up based on cost

∴ Cost = 35.8/2 = $17.9

∵ Selling price = cost + mark up

∴ Selling price = 17.9 + 35.8 = $53.7

∵ Complementary of %mark up on selling price = cost/selling price

∴ Complementary of %mark up on selling price = (17.9/53.7) × 100 = 33.33%

∴ %mark up on selling price =  100 - 33.33 = 66.67%

∵ Mark down = selling price - sale price

∴ Mark down = 53.7 - 42.96 = $10.74

∵ % mark down = mark down/selling price

∴ % Mark down = 10.74/53.7 = 20%

A line passes through the point (–2, 4), and its y-intercept is (0, –6). What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular
vodka [1.7K]
Y= mx +b
the first line:
sustitute:
4=m(-2)+b
remplace intercept in y:
4=-2m-6
-2m=(4+6)/-2
m=-5
The first equation is y=-5x-6
For the perpendicular the slope is 1/5
so
y-y1=m(x-x1)   use the second coordenates
y+4= 1/5(x-5)
y=(1/5)x-1-4
y=(1/5)x-5  That's the answer: Letter C
