When it comes to probability, the answer is always expressed as part of a whole. With that being said, your answer for this problem can be a ratio, fraction or in percentage. Probability is the study of finding the chances or odds of an event happening with the use of statistics. You are already given the statistics of baby girls and baby boys. Note that you are asked to find the probability of the baby being a girl. So, the part here includes the 248, while the whole is 248+13 = 261. Therefore, the probability is 248/261 or 0.95 or 95%. That means that the likelihood of having a girl baby using this technique is very high.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

1558

Step-by-step explanation:

The first 202020 licenses cost full price, which is \$41$41dollar sign, 41 each. Thus, the first 202020 licenses cost a total of \$41 \cdot 20 = \$820$41⋅20=$820dollar sign, 41, dot, 20, equals, dollar sign, 820.

Hint #2

The remaining licenses have a 10\%10%10, percent discount. That means they cost 90\%90%90, percent of the full price. Let's write 90\%90%90, percent in its decimal form, 0.90.90, point, 9, in order to multiply.

\qquad 0.9 \cdot \$41 = \$36.900.9⋅$41=$36.900, point, 9, dot, dollar sign, 41, equals, dollar sign, 36, point, 90

Hint #3

There are 40 - 20 = 2040−20=2040, minus, 20, equals, 20 licenses at the reduced price of \$36.90$36.90dollar sign, 36, point, 90. Thus, the remaining 202020 licenses cost a total of \$36.90 \cdot 20 = \$738$36.90⋅20=$738dollar sign, 36, point, 90, dot, 20, equals, dollar sign, 738.

Hint #4

To find the cost for all 404040 licenses, let's add the costs of the full price and discounted licenses.

\qquad \$820 + \$738 = \$1558$820+$738=$1558dollar sign, 820, plus, dollar sign, 738, equals, dollar sign, 1558

Hint #5

The business would pay \$1558$1558dollar sign, 1558 to buy the licenses.
