Let us say that:
K = age of Kristen
B = age of Ben
From the problem, we make the equations:
eqtn 1: K + B = 32
eqtn 2: (K – 4) = 2 (B – 4)
Simplifying eqtn 2:
K – 4 = 2 B – 8
K = 2 B – 4
Plugging in this to eqtn 2:
(2 B – 4) + B = 32
3 B – 4 = 32
3 B = 36
B = 12
From eqtn 2:
K = 2 B – 4 = 2 (12) – 4 = 20
So Kristen is 20 while Ben is 12.
Percent error : (approximate value - exact value) / exact value.....x 100
percent error : (5.75 - 6.25) / 6.25......ignore any negative signs
0.5 / 6.25 = 0.08.....x 100 = 8% error <==
Multiply 5% by 229
So, .05 x 229 = 11.45
$11.45 tax
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
WITHOUT replacement of first card drawn:
P(a 10 is drawn) = 13/52 = 1/4
P(the next draw is a 10) = 12/52 = 3/13
P(drawing two 10s without replacement of the first draw) = (1/4)(3/13) = 3/52
WITH replacement of first card:
P(two 10s are drawn) = P(first card is a 10)*P(first card is a 10) = (4/13)(4/13) =
16/169
