The first option is correct.

You could do all the math to compare the final answers, but I looked at the part where you add. Using a standard algorithm, when going on to the next digit in the second number, you always add a 0 first. The rest of those options don't include a 0.

PLEASE HELP?
lukranit [14]
Number of ones = 60
Number of twos = 62
Number of threes = 59
Number of fours = 64
Number of fives = 63
Number of sixes = 75

Total even outcomes = total number of two, four and sixes = 62 + 64 + 75 = 201

Total outcomes = 60+62+59+64+63+75= 383

Probability if rolling an even number = 201/383

percentage= 201/383 × 100 = 52.48% ~ 52.5%

\boxed{\text{\huge{\red{Answer: D}}}}

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are cut by a transversal and the corresponding angles are congruent, the lines are parallel.

\rm \longrightarrow \angle 2 =  \angle 5 \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow 3x - 20 = x + 20 \\ \\ \rm Add \ 20 \ both \ sides:  \\  \rm \longrightarrow 3x - 20 + 20 = x + 20 + 20 \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow 3x = x + 40 \\ \\ \rm Substrate \ x \ from \ both \ sides:  \\  \rm \longrightarrow 3x - x = x - x + 40 \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow 2x = 40 \\ \\ \rm Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 2: \\  \rm \longrightarrow  \frac{ \cancel{2}x }{ \cancel{2}}  =  \dfrac{40}{2}  \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow x = 20

Analyzing the answer options to calculate the total profit

(A) 15% of 50 is 7.5

(B) 25% of 50 is 12.5

(C) 33 1/3% of 50 is 16.67

(D) 40% of 50 is 20

(E) 75% of 50 is 37.5

Since selling price is the sum of the cost price and the profit, only 40%

gives us a whole number for selling price, making it our answer choice.(Option D)

Profit = Price - Cost

Now lets make the denominator = 100...So multiply both numerator and denominator by 2

Now you can equal each answer choice easily with equation above.......You need answer that creates even number to be divided by 2

Choices A, B, & E makes the number ending with 5 odd............Eliminate

Choice C is very clear ..........................................................Eliminate

Only one answer left.

Answer D

Check it

2Price - 100 = 40.........2Price = 140......P= 70...Bingo
