Answer:

Number of small boxes is 50 and number of big boxes is 60

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of small box represent x and the number of big box represent y

Hence total number of boxes = x + y = 110 ......................Eqn1

Total weight of boxes = 30x + 55y = 4800----------------Eqn2

Solving both equations simultaneously

From Eqn1, x = 110-y, substitute it into equation 2

Hence, 4800 = 30(110-y) + 55y

1500 = 25y

y = 60

X = 110 - 60 = 50

Number of small boxes is 50 and number of big boxes is 60

A computer that normally costs $890 is on sale with a 35% discount. What is the sale price?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

578.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

first we calculate 35% of $890

890 * 0.35 = 311.5$

Then we subtract 35% from the original price to obtain the final price

890-311.5=578.5$ <---- final price

1) If a die is rolled once, determine the probability of rolling a 4: Rolling a 4 is an event with 1 favorable outcome (a roll of 4) and the total number of possible outcomes is 6 (a roll of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6). Thus, the probability of rolling a 4 is \frac{1}{6}.

If a die is rolled once, determine the probability of rolling at least a 4: Rolling at least 4 is an event with 3 favorable outcomes (a roll of 4, 5, or 6) and the total number of possible outcomes is again 6. Thus, the probability of rolling at least a 4 is \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}.

<h3>Here are two more examples: </h3>

If a coin is flipped twice, determine the probability that it will land heads both times:

Favorable outcomes: 1 -- HH

Possible outcomes: 4 -- HH, HT, TH, TT

Thus, the probability that the coin will land heads both times is \frac{1}{4}.

If Dan grabs one sock from a drawer containing 3 white socks, 4 blue socks, and 5 yellow socks, what is the probability that he will grab a white sock?

Favorable outcomes: 3 (3 white socks)

Possible outcomes: 12 (3 white socks + 4 blue socks + 5 yellow socks)

Thus, the probability that Dan will grab a white sock is \frac{3}{12} = \frac{1}{4}.
