Answer:

0.40 or 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that no student can hold a position at two companies simultaneously, the probability of a student interning at Hawaiian Airlines or Big Island Candies is simply determined by the sum of each individual probability:

P(H\ or\ B) = P(H)+P(B)\\P(H\ or\ B) = 0.30+0.10 = 0.40 =40\%

There is a 40% chance that a student interns at Hawaiian Airlines or Big Island Candies.

A clothing store advertises that it is having a 25% off sale. for one day only, the store advertises and additional savings of 1
kogti [31]

Let assume x be the sale price

A clothing store advertises that it is having a 25% off sale.

The sale price with 25% discount is f(x) = sale price - 25% of sale price

f(x)= x - 0.25x = 0.75x

For one day only, the store advertises and additional savings of 10%.

The sale price with 10% discount is g(x) = sale price - 10% of sale price

g(x)= x - 0.10x = 0.90x

Use composition function

g(f(x)) = g( 0.75x) = 0.90(0.75x) = 0.675x

That is 0.675/100 = 67.5%

The total percent discount = 100% - 67.5% = 32.5%

what would be the sale price of a $40 sweater?

Here sale price x= 40

So we plug in 40 for x

g(f(40)) = g( 0.75(40)) = 0.90(0.75(40)) = 0.675(40) = 27

The sale price of sweater = $27

which of the following can not be probabilities? 1, -0.56, square root of 2, 3/5, 1.23, 0, 5/3, 0.02??
Katarina [22]

It is important to know that probabilities are defined insed the range [0,1], which means they cannot be outside that set of values.

<h2>Hence, -0.56, square root of 2, 1.23, and 5/3 can't be probabilities because they are outside the range of values.</h2>

A regular hexagon is dilated by a scale factor of 43 to create a new hexagon. How does the perimeter of the new hexagon compare
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

the dilated perimeter is 258x while the og perimeter is 6x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let side length = x

Og perimeter: 6x

Dilated perimeter: 43*6x=258x

Therefore, the dilated perimeter is 258x while the og perimeter is 6x

I hope this helped and have a good rest of your day!

How many milliliters of 0.30%. sugar solution must you add to 75 mL of 4% sugar solution to get a 0.50% sugar solution? show you
LekaFEV [45]
<span>We have 75 mL of 4% sugar solution.
We have to add a 30% sugar </span><span>solution to make a 50% </span><span>sugar solution.
75 * .04 + .30x = .50 * (75 +x)
3 + .30x = 37.5 +.50x
I can't get the equation to solve.
Did you type it correctly? For one thing, you have the percentages typed as .30 % and 4%.  Are the decimal places in the correct positions?

Also, no matter how much 30% sugar solution you add, it will NEVER increase to 50%.
