Answer:
the larger of two printers being used to print the payroll for a major corporation requres 40 min. to print the payroll.So the smaller printer's payroll printing rate is
1 payroll per x min or or
>>...After both printers have been operating for 10 min, the larger printer malfunctions...<<
So the fraction of the payroll that the larger printer did in the 10 minutes
is = payroll.

Answer:
a) 1 / 12
b) 1 / 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The events are independent since they do not affect each other. The total probability of two independent events is the product of the probabilities of the two events.
a) When rolling a die, there are 6 outcomes, the numbers 1 - 6. There is only 1 outcome where you can get a 2. Therefore, the probability of rolling a two is 1/6.
When flipping a coin, there are two ways it can land: heads or tails. And there is one outcome with heads. The probability of getting head would be 1 / 2.
To find the the total, you multiply the probabilities of the two events: 1 / 6 * 1 / 2 = 1 / 12
b) As stated before, when rolling a die, there are 6 outcomes, the numbers 1 - 6. There are 3 outcomes where she can roll an even number: the numbers 2, 4, or 6. So, the probability of rolling an even number is 3 / 6 or 1 / 2.
When flipping a coin, there are two ways it can land: heads or tails. And there is one outcome with tails. The probability of getting tails would be 1 / 2.
Now, you multiply the two probabilities to get the total probability: 1 / 2 * 1 / 2 = 1 / 4
So, just divide:
52.50 / 6 = 8.75
This means that she earns $8.75 an hour.
If this is her hourly salary, then multiply 8.75 x 11
8.75 x 11 = 96.25
So, if Paula works for 11 hours, she will earn $96.25!
