A)
Increase %= (new # - old #)/old * 100
new= 8
old= 5

Increase %= (8-5)/5 * 100
=3/5 * 100
=0.60 * 100
=60% increase

B)
Decrease %= (old # - new #)/old * 100
new= 5
old= 8

Decrease %= (8-5)/8 * 100
= 3/8 * 100
= 0.375 * 100
= 37.5% decrease


ANSWER: a) 60% increase; b) 37.5% decrease

Hope this helps! :) Good luck on your test!!

A bin has 5 white balls and k black balls in it, where k is an unknown positive integer. A ball is drawn at random from the bin.
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: The expected loss is 50 cents, we know that it is more likely to lose than win. It is therefore difficult to get-50, so the overall difference between the two possibilities is 2, 50/200=1/4, and the probability to win is 1/4, and the probability to lose is 3/4. Since (1/4)*3=3/4, the number of black balls is 3 times the number of white balls, so k=15.
