Answer: $15.21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Joe's lunch cost $13.00 without tax
He tipped the waiter with 17% of bill without tax
So, the amount of tip is
Total amount that food costs without tax is
<span>P(1 claim) = p/4
P(2 claims) = (p/4)/4 = p/16
You should see that the distribution follows a geometric series with common ratio 1/4.
Sum geometric = (first term) / (1 - common ratio) = p/(1 - 1/4) = 4p/3
But the sum of all the probabilites must equal 1 ----> 4p/3 = 1 ----> p = 3/4
P(2 or more claims) = 1 - P(0 claims) - P(1 claim) = 1 - 3/4 - 3/16 = 1/16</span>

I'm pretty sure its A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2 cookies
Step-by-step explanation:
let c represent cookies, m represent muffins. set up a system of equations:
2c+3m=16
m=2c
(the top equation shows that cookies are $2 each, and muffins are $3, and that the total cost is $16. the bottom equation shows that Lori bought twice as many muffins as cookies).
then solve the system of equations by substitution, substituting 2c for m in the top equation:
2c+3(2c)=16
2c+6c=16
8c=16
c=2
this means that lori bought 2 cookies.
Hi! I'm happy to help!
Our town is composed of 2,000 people. Of those 2,000 people, 4/5 of them are middle class. The word 'of' usually means multiplication when it is in a word problem. So, we will multiply 2,000 by 4/5. When multiplying a whole number, we just multiply it by the numerator (top) and leave the denominator. (bottom)
2,000×4
8,000
8,000/5
Fractions are just a different way of putting division, so we can change this to a division problem:
8,000÷5=
1,600
1,600 of the people are middle class.
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
